Forkift Computer with Weighting System

Background
A weighing sensor is installed on the forklift truck. By the automatic detection of lifting pressure, the pressure signal is converted into a current or voltage signal. By A/D conversion, the analog signal is converted into the digital signal. After data processing by a microprocessor, the weighing data is transmitted to Darveen in-vehicle computers through Bluetooth, serial ports or USB ports, so that forklifts can be loaded and unloaded according to schedule. In this way, a lot of time and labor can be saved, overloading and overrunning prevented, equipment wear and tear slowed, transportation costs lowered and work efficiency improved. At the same time, in the case of forklift overloading, Darveen in-vehicle computers can provide sound, light, text and other alarm information to enhance the safety of forklift operation. This solution is widely used in warehouses, workshops, freight yards, logistics and other fields.
