Innovative assist technology recognized for ability to reinforce proper lift truck operation
GREENE, N.Y., December 7, 2021 — Plant Engineering magazine has named The Raymond Corporation’s iWAREHOUSE® Real-Time Location System (iW.RTLS) as a finalist for its 2021 Product of the Year awards. Magazine subscribers can vote for their favorite product across various categories spanning 15 components of plant engineering — from asset management to automation in warehouses and plants.
iW.RTLS is nominated for this year’s award in the Asset Management category. iW.RTLS is an innovative technology that enables facility managers to manage operations easier and more effectively by monitoring and identifying the movement of lift trucks, personnel and assets in warehouse facilities. iW.RTLS optimizes operations processes, reinforces training and reduces operational costs. Facility management can define specific zones and the system can be configured to bring a Raymond lift truck to a stop or slow down when in those defined zones.
In addition, iW.RTLS works in conjunction with the iWAREHOUSE® suite of telematics solutions, providing enhanced visibility across the operation, while leveraging Raymond’s Professional Service team to gain actionable insights.
The Plant Engineering Product of the Year awards are now open for voting. To cast your vote, visit the Plant Engineering website or click here. Voting ends March 11, 2022, and winners will be announced online on April 25, 2022, and featured in the Plant Engineering magazine’s May/June 2022 issue.
