The viewing problem
Safety is becoming an ever increasing aspect in the industry. All new earth moving machinery has to as of the 1st of December 2008 comply with the ISO 5006 standards. The driver of a large earth moving machinery vehicle has very little visibility of the area around his vehicle. The blind spot areas to the front and rear of the vehicle are the most dangerous areas. The ISO 5006 standards state that the area of up to one metre around the entire vehicle as well as the area of one and a half metres above the vehicle must be visible to the driver.
Lifting and positioning pallets at extreme heights requires precision work. A small mistake can cause damage to the pallet or racking. With an Orlaco camera, every pillar and horizontal beam in the warehouse can be clearly seen on the monitor ensuring full visibility.
The driver sits in the cabin and is able to see everything, right or wrong? Wrong, there are countless situations where the driver loses visibility of the load. For example, when connecting the load behind buildings or on lower stories of buildings. Thanks to Orlaco’s excellent camera monitor systems, the driver has complete visibility of the load in all circumstances.
