IMPCO FLEET MANAGEMENT

 

IMPCO Fleet Manager ensures that fleet management systems can easily and successfully be implemented in the Materials Handling Industry. The Materials handling equipment as well as the materials transported by the equipment is exposed to various forms of maltreatment.
The Fleet Manager system allows you to monitor the usage of your materials handling equipment, address utilisation, plan shifts, record impacts to forklifts and log operator behaviour.

The IMPCO FM 200 Plus on-board computer (OBC) is fitted in the vehicle to record the operator and vehicle data. It records various standard data such as the start date and time, end date and time, distance travelled, harsh braking and harsh acceleration etc.
The FM200 Plus can monitor additional sensors such as when the fork lifted, or the weight of the load.
VDO FM200 Plus HV (High-Voltage) on-board computer is specifically intended for vehicles with battery power exceeding 24V, and is designed to work up to an input voltage of 110V. This is an ideal solution for 42 Volt vehicles, materials handling equipment etc. The FM200 Plus HV consist of the same functionality of the FM200 Plus.

The FM Impact Sensor is used to monitor the G Force value of any impacts that the equipment incur during an average day's use. All impacts are recorded on the on-board computer and periodically downloaded onto the database. (optional).

The Materials Handling Extension, has been developed in order to extend the current VDO Fleet Manager software to support various new features for the Materials Handling Industry.

 

Standard Features and Benefits
Driver Identification
 & Immobiliser
Know who is driving your forklifts and protect your equipment against unauthorised access. If speeding fines or traffic violations arise, you can identify who was driving at that time. Immobiliser functionality can be added to in order to allow only authorised personnel to start the forklift
Violation and Event Monitoring Protect your assets by monitoring forklift use and misuse. Reduce maintenance by monitoring the forklifts
Driver Warning Reduce driving violations and improve driver behaviour by warning the operator with the buzzer.
Impact Recording Know which forklifts have been in recent accidents, the force of the impact and who was driving at the time. This allows you to know which forklifts should be checked for damage and sent in for repairs. Additionally, it provides you with the knowledge of who the good operators are, and who require training.
Flexible with where the FM Impact Sensor is fitted The flexibility of where the FM Impact Sensor is mounted on the forklift, enables you to monitor exactly what you want and the type of impact you would like to record (side or road-surface impacts)
Shift Planner Maximise fleet utilisation, by using the Shift Planner and Utilisation Reports.
User-defined Severity Gives you total control when reporting on impacts. You can choose the limits of the three different severity levels (minimum, medium and severe)
Various Download methods available The FM200 Plus on-board computer supports
Waterproof Housing (IP68)

The FM200 Plus Waterproofing Kit provides protection for the FM200+ on-board computer against harsh conditions especially water and dust. Optional integrated data transmission (DECT) antenna.

Download Methods
Vehicle Plug The vehicle and driver data is extracted from the vehicle using a vehicle code-plug. The code-plug is inserted into the FM200 Plus’s code-socket, and the data is downloaded onto the plug. The plug is then inserted into a Download module and the data is downloaded from the plug into the database.
GSM/GPRS is an optional extra that can be used for remote, hands-free data transfer instead of the manual code plug or DECT. Provided that you have GSM/GPRS modem, you can automate the remote downloads of the vehicle data via GSM data calls or GPRS connection, obviating the need for physical access to the vehicle.
When a severe impact occurred, the onboard computer can send a message to your cell phone, informing you of the impact. These events are user-defined and you can decide which events should send a message to your phone.
VDO Fleet Management Software
VDO Fleet Manager Professional
Fleet Manager Professional 8 provides the serious fleet operator with extensive fleet management tools to manage and report on his fleet. The software enables you to manage equipment and operators, define and manage events to be monitored, analyse fleet data and do extensive management reporting
VDO FM-Web
If you prefer to view your information on the Internet, then FM-Web would be the solution for you. You can view the performance of you operators and equipments anywhere and at anytime, using an Internet Browser. You can request for selected Materials Handling reports to be emailed to you on a weekly basis.
Report & Graphs

The materials Handling Extension is used in conjunction with VDO Fleet Manager Professional includes Utilisation, Event, Collision and Timeline Reports and Graphs, as well as a tool to plan shifts for equipment and report on the utilisation for that shift and more.

Events report
The event report is a report that displays the event for either equipment or operators in the organisation, sorted by equipment and by the date of the sub trip.

Reports include : Detailed, Summary, Graphs

Collision report
The collision report is a report that displays collisions detected by FM Impact Sensor for either the operators or equipment. This allows the fleet manger to see exactly who the safest and the best operator are.

Report include : Detailed, Summary, Graphs

Utilisation report
The Utilisation Reports are used in conjunction with the Shift Planner. It displays the fleet utilisation according to shifts, operators or equipment. These are divided into Driving, Idling and Standing time. This will give the Fleet Manager a better understanding of the fleet, and will allow him/her to make informed decisions to optimise fleet utilisation.

Reports include: Detailed, Summary, Graphs(by operator, shifts or equipment)

Material handling Activity timeline
The Materials Handling Activity Timeline Reports present the sub trip data in both a time line format as well as a textual representation. The Over Speeding, Over Revving, Harsh acceleration and Idle events for the sub trip are also included in the report
