Joint action C


astell and Traka have an- nounced a joint develop- ment of their respective loading bay systems.


The companies have created DockSafe, a unique system that enhances loading bay safety regardless of vehicle type. The system restricts access to authorised personnel only, and gives full traceability of who used which door, and when this occurred. This audit trail is vital when both assessing performance and effi ciency. The system works through Traka’s im- mobiliser system, controlling the access to both the loading bay and Castell’s Salvo Susie device.

ability for untrained staff to use potentially hazardous equipment. Access is granted through the intelligent Traka iFob, allowing the Castell Salvo Susie to be released. The Salvo Susie is then fi tted to the emer- gency airline of the articulated trailer. The Castell key is subsequently released and is inserted into the Salvo Control Panel, which allows the bay doors to be operated. This sequence ensures the trailer is immobilised while loading or unloading is carried out. Castell has many years of experience in providing loading bay safety systems and has installed Salvo on thousands of load- ing bays worldwide. Traka is an expert in access control solutions for fork lift truck and bay door control within logistics and distribution markets across the globe. 
