Claitec LSA Low Speed Area : automatic speed control of forklifts by zone

Claitec LSA (Low Speed Area)

Automatic speed control via infrared technology

Always the optimum speed in the warehouse thanks to infrared technology. The Claitec LSA system automatically regulates the driving speed of forklift trucks as soon as they enter a predefined zone.

How does the Claitec LSA system work?

The system uses an encoded infrared signal that is transmitted to polarised strips on the ceiling or at gates.

As soon as the forklift truck detects a zone, the vehicle automatically switches to a higher or lower speed, depending on the set safety zone.

Safety and control by zone

The right speed in the right place significantly increases safety and reduces the risk of accidents and damage.

• Lower speed in zones with pedestrians
• Higher speed where safe and permitted
• Automatic zone recognition via ceiling strips
• Immediate adjustment of forklift speed without driver intervention

This results in greater safety and lower operational costs, without any loss of efficiency.

Smart speed limitation without loss of productivity

The Claitec LSA system imposes speed restrictions only where necessary, so that vehicles can continue to operate normally outside risk areas.

Key benefits

• Automatic speed restriction, only where necessary
• No impact on productivity
• Simple installation, without major infrastructure works
• Particularly sustainable design
• Two speed levels: slow and fast
