ProMat 2025: ELOfusion Fleet Management & Anti-Collision Solution for Forklifts
ELOKON has introduced ELOfusion—a combination of its ultra-wideband (UWB)-based ELOshield proximity detection system and its fleet management platform ELOfleet—to provide a single, integrated environmental warning and fleet management system that offers collision avoidance, automatic speed reduction, comprehensive fleet management, and centralized data analysis.
ELOfusion can be added directly to existing and new fleets of forklifts so companies can reduce the risk of accidents and facilitate the management of their fleets without wasting a dime.
ELOfusion was unveiled and demonstrated at ProMat 2025 in booth #S3588.
It provides precise detection and avoidance of collisions between vehicles and people using UWB radio waves to gauge the distance between the forklift and surrounding obstacles. Its precise detection mechanism penetrates obstacles without false alarms and manages multiple pedestrian detections simultaneously. UWB systems can detect pedestrians and other material handling equipment even if they are behind obstacles. It intelligently adjusts speed in danger zones such as doorways or confined spaces.
ELOfusion also features RFID access control; impact sensors to detect violent damage; electronic safety checklists; analysis of driving, logging, and idle times; battery management; and preventive maintenance scheduling.
The ELOfleet.com platform can be used to centrally analyze all data from your forklift fleet to identify efficiency potential and optimize processes across all locations.
