iForks 52

More options on displays available on this indicator and this model is also available with a thermal printer.

Description

The iconic iForks range of forklift truck scales is about to be expanded with a new model, the RAVAS iForks-52! The iForks-52 offers the intuitive 5200 touch screen indicator combined with all the functionalities and advantages of the iForks-32, and more!

The RAVAS iForks-52 is the most advanced wireless weighing solution for forklifts, designed for maximum precision and extensive functionality. With even higher weighing accuracy and smart connectivity options, such as direct data integration with WMS or ERP systems, the iForks-52 makes working more efficiently easier than ever.

Thanks to its robust construction and long battery life, this scale fork is ideal for intensive logistics and industrial applications.

Main benefits

Mast tilt displayed

The RAVAS iForks-52 offer a number of smart extras compared to the iForks-32. The driver display shows the live discharge status of the fork batteries. It also shows the tilt of the mast in its graphical display, making it easy to put the mast in vertical position for the most accurate weighing. And it shows the weight distribution of the load over the forks, advising the driver on how to avoid dangerous tip and side loads.

 

 

Li-ion battery packs

Power supply to the forms comes from compact, re-chargeable Li-ion battery packs. Each fork has its own battery pack with 75 hours of continuous use.

Easy fit for fork positioners

The changes to batteries and Bluetooth modules, and the elimination of the cover plates, leave no eternal components on the fork shank, making the iForks-52 even easier to fit onto fork positioners.

 

OTHER BENEFITS

Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a standard feature on the 5200, providing connectivity to tablets and smart phones. The RAVAS WeightsApp can act as a remote display and remote control for the scale, allowing you to download weighing data.

Mast tilt compensation

The 5200 indicator has automatic tilt compensation, to automatically correct weight errors that occur when the mast tilts and the forks are not in horizontal position. The instrument automatically logs tip loads and overloads.

 

Optimize cross docking in LTL and 3PL logistics with iForks-52

One of RAVAS’ logistic customers was interested in establishing an investment that weighed their product efficiently and provided real-time data of each inbound to their WMS system. Without any impact on their cross dock operations nor WMS system.

Piece counting for goods in and good out.

The touch screen display is very intuitive and can be personalized.

The lift truck driver can enlarge the field that shows the weight on the forks, or rearrange the soft keys in the display to his or her own preference.

And the 5200 display  offers many extra functions. Piece counting for example, by entering piece weight, from the piece weight memory, piece weight calculation and by reference weighing scale.

 

By letting the truck scale count for you, human errors are avoided and handling speed in order picking and in checking shipments is raised. Many companies specialize in the production of custom made parts and subsystems. Other companies use these in the assembly of their finished product. Material flows in supply chains mainly consist of parts shipments. Parts that are counted continuously: at order picking, shipping, at goods reception. Shipping the correct amounts is of major importance. The mobile scale translates the measured weight into a quantity, using the per part piece weight. This piece weight can either be entered manually or sampled automatically by the scale. The display shows the actual number of parts on the pallet and how many remain to be picked.
