Forklifts are used in factories and logistics warehouses to handle and transport large cargo and pallets that cannot be managed manually. However, when site managers look over the area, they may notice that some forklifts are not in operation. When seeing such a situation, many people might wonder, "Is the current number really necessary?" or "Could we reduce the number a bit more?" Generally, with standard forklifts, one can only check the operating hours using an hour meter, and it is not possible to grasp the operating status by time segment, the locations traveled, or the ratio of empty runs to loaded runs. NX Comprehensive Research Institute's "Rojitan Fork" is a service that uses IoT tools to visualize the operating status of forklifts within warehouses and factories, calculating the truly necessary number of forklifts.
