The client, a platform management company under a major Japanese conglomerate, provides long-term safety and operations management for a large nationwide forklift fleet. Since 2017, they have partnered with STONKAM, deploying over 6,000 forklift fleet management systems. The solution enables real-time monitoring, driving behavior analysis, hazard warnings, and evidence recording, fully integrated with the client’s supervision platform. This has helped standardize driver behavior, enhance dispatch efficiency, and advance digital, intelligent fleet management.

Key Customer Pain Points

● Limited visibility causing recurring minor collisions: Forklifts operating in narrow aisles face serious front/rear blind spots, leading to repeated minor impacts with personnel, goods, and equipment due to the lack of effective early-warning mechanisms.
● Inability to quantify driving habits or assess training results: Although rules and training were in place, managers had no real-time visibility into unsafe behaviors such as sharp turns or sudden braking.
● Low efficiency and incomplete coverage from manual supervision: With multiple zones and shifts, managers couldn’t continuously monitor all vehicles, resulting in gaps in recording, feedback, and violation tracking.
● Insufficient evidence for incident investigations: Without video or behavioral data, damage incidents required costly investigation, made liability difficult to determine, and reduced management transparency.

Solution

To meet the client’s needs for safety oversight and data-driven management, STONKAM deployed a forklift management system​ built around Waterproof MDVRs, HD forklift cameras, and customized line controllers.

● The Waterproof MDVR serves as the core, supporting 4-channel recording, up to 2TB local storage, and stable data upload—ensuring reliable performance in dusty, humid, and high-vibration environments.
● Front and rear 1080P HD forklift cameras cover major blind spots, while the MDVR’s built-in 9-axis G-SENSOR detects unsafe actions such as sudden braking or sharp turns and automatically triggers alerts to standardize driving behavior.
● All video and behavioral data is transmitted to the client’s supervision platform for reporting, event handling, and analysis.

This integrated forklift monitoring systems​ unifies real-time monitoring, driving behavior collection, and evidence recording, enabling a transparent, manageable, and traceable forklift safety supervision framework.

Project Outcomes

● Significant Accident Reduction & Proactive Risk Alerts: Real-time driving behavior monitoring and instant warnings improved driver awareness, reduced dangerous actions, and lowered accident-related and maintenance costs. 
● Enhanced Fleet Efficiency: Managers can easily view vehicle and driver status, enabling more accurate dispatching and improving fleet utilization.
● Complete Evidence Chain for Clear Liability: Incidents automatically trigger alarm recording, and video playback provides solid evidence, reducing disputes and compensation expenses.
● Digitalized, Transparent Supervision: All data is uploaded to the client platform for automated behavior statistics and report generation, making management more visual, standardized, and efficient.
