Enhance dock safety and efficiency with advanced communication systems and controls for all types of dock levelers.
Hazard Recognition and Control allows facilities to help:
- Incorporate line of sight Rite-Vu™ Light Communication System status with Corner-Vu™ and Leveler-Vu™. In Drive-Thru Applications with a continuous pit, run-off guards are a physical barrier for vertical storing levelers, while Leveler-Vu provides line-of-sight light communication for vehicle restraint engagement and dock leveler edges.
- Prevent the collapse of dock levelers undergoing maintenance with the Universal Safe-T-Strut™.
- Reduce crushing hazards due to out of sequence leveler operation while employees are in the vertical leveler pit with Safe-T-Pit® sensors.
- Protect material handling equipment against the 4ft. vacant dock drop-off with Safe-T-Lip® leveler lip barrier.
- Integrate additional and future equipment along with interlocked sequence of operations to ensure safety protocols and processes are followed by dock workers.
- Integrate multiple pieces of loading dock equipment into programmable safe sequence of operations with Dok-Commander® Combined Controls.
- Monitor equipment, capture events, synchronize vital information and facilitate data-driven behaviors and process change with smart, connected products.
Corner-Vu™ and Leveler-Vu™ Line of Sight Light Communication
- Clearly inform dock personnel when they can safely enter and exit the trailer
- Line-of-sight light communication status mitigates control box obstructions
- Energy-saving low voltage LED lights
Universal Safe-T-Strut™
- Central through-the-lip location
- Proven to withstand impacts from a 10,000 lb fork truck driving up to 4 mph
- Solidly supports both the leveler deck and lip
Safe-T-Lip®
- Helps prevent drop-off accidents
- Unobstructed end-load access
- Withstands 10,000 lb fork truck impact traveling at 4 mph
Interlocked Sequence of Operations
- Optimize loading dock safety and productivity with controls
- Customize sequence based on facility’s standard operating procedures
- Take human error out of the loading dock operation equation
Dok-Commander® Combined Controls
- Integrate multiple pieces of loading dock equipment into one centralized panel
- NEMA 4X Controls designed to withstand interior dock environment
- Programmable for safe sequential order of interlocked loading dock equipment
Safe-T-Pit®
- Dual sensors immediately disables leveler operation if motion is detected in pit
- Helps prevent pedestrian crushing hazards
- Anti-debris design and sensor placement for easy pit cleaning
