Castell and Traka Produce Intelligent Loading Bay Safety System

Castell and Traka Produce Intelligent Loading Bay Safety System PR Newswire MUMBAI, September 27, 2012 MUMBAI, September 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- DockSafe Prevents Accidental Driveaways and Offers Complete End-to-End Audit Trail Industrial safety specialist Castell (www.castell.com) and access control expert Traka (www.traka.com) have joined forces to create DockSafe, an intelligent loading bay safety system. Photo: http://halmapr.com/castell/docksafe.jpg DockSafe uses Traka's immobiliser system to control access both to the loading bay and Castell's Salvo Susie mechanical locking device. Since only authorised users can gain access to the loading bay equipment, the possibility of untrained staff accessing potentially hazardous equipment is removed. Access is granted through the intelligent Traka iFob, which allows Castell's Salvo Susie to be released from its storage cabinet. The Salvo Susie is then fitted to the articulated trailer's exposed emergency airline coupling. A Castell key is subsequently released from the Susie and inserted into the Salvo Control Panel, enabling the bay doors to be opened. This sequence of events ensures that the trailer is immobilised while loading or unloading is carried out. Castell's considerable experience in the provision of loading bay safety systems has seen the company install Salvo on thousands of loading bays worldwide.
