Queuing system for lorries; ideal for loading and unloading ramps

Loading and unloading ramps are important interfaces between suppliers / transporters and loading companies. Here, there are always waiting times that not only cost time and money but can also endanger the safety of warehouse staff.

One main reason for this: poor communication or information. A queuing system for lorries offers an excellent solution to ensure more safety and greater efficiency.

Such a flow control of trucks can be implemented very easily by means of a pager system. By equipping waiting lorries with a pager / buzzer when they check in at the ramp or at the warehouse office. As soon as the ramp is ready to receive the lorry, simply call the driver from the office or from the ramp via the pager system so he can see at the pager which ramp to drive to.

With a queuing system for lorries, shipping and receiving processes can be easily rationalized and personnel and resource planning optimized.

A queue management system can be controlled with various software solutions. We at Discover Systems offer software in collaboration with partner companies, which can also help relieve queues of incoming and outgoing cargo.

A paging system for regulating the waiting time of lorries is exactly the right solution if longer waiting times and treatment times occur regularly on the ramp. Many companies use a time-slot management system, where drivers are notified via SMS when a ramp is free. However, drivers from abroad in particular do not want to have messages sent to their mobile phones, and an SMS can often be on the way for a long time. Sending text messages to foreign cell phone numbers can also be problematic. These difficulties do not exist with a pager system for waiting lorries, as it is a closed system with wireless technology that always works reliably.

However, safe access control is not only important for loading and unloading ramps. Such a system can also be extremely useful when loading and unloading with a forklift. If, for example, should a forklift be called from a production machine because a pallet is fully loaded and now needs to be transported away, the machine operator can use a call button to quickly and easily notify the forklift. From the message on his pager, the driver can see which machine he should drive to. In this way, you very easily increase the efficiency of the forklift in the warehouse and at the same time increase safety.
