Many of the challenges you currently face, including hiring challenges, supply chain disruptions and changing consumer demands, can be resolved or significantly diminished with automation technology that exists today.
The automated and manual operating modes offered by Crown's DualMode lift trucks provide flexibility to utilize automation where it makes sense then switch to manual operation to accommodate dynamic changes in the production plan. Trained employees can perform the switch to manual mode, complete the operation and return the vehicle to automated mode.

Many operations are looking for ways to incorporate operator assist systems into powered industrial trucks. Active assistance systems are designed to alert the operator, as well as to reduce or limit the travel or load handling performance of the lift truck. Passive operator assistance systems are designed to alert the operator of the proximity of other lift trucks or pedestrians within the vicinity.
Crown’s ProximityAssist System is a LiDAR-based operator assist technology that actively limits travel speed when the lift truck approaches a detected object, further enabling the operator to take appropriate action.
The system is available with new reach trucks, order pickers and stand-up counterbalance lift trucks and is available as a retrofit kit for these lift trucks as well as very narrow aisle turret trucks, tow tractors and select rider pallet trucks.
