Linde Warehouse Navigator – Complete transparency in the block warehouse
What can the Linde Warehouse Navigator do?
The Linde Warehouse Navigator is a forklift guidance system that specializes in the storage processes in large block warehouses. It enables precise goods and pallet identification and ensures efficient material flows and reliable goods tracking. The automatic localization means that the system always knows where a forklift is currently located and the specific goods that it is transporting. If a package is stored incorrectly, the software notifies the driver of the error and documents the incorrect position. The Linde Warehouse Navigator generates a three-dimensional map of the entire warehouse on which the current position of every load unit is stored.
Who needs the Linde Warehouse Navigator?
The Linde Warehouse Navigator is perfect for companies that operate a block warehouse or have a large fleet of forklift trucks. Besides completely transparent goods storage, the system is ideal for coordinating the routes of large fleets of forklift trucks. All of the routes in the warehouse can be stored in the software. The system uses this information to calculate optimum routes, avoid empty runs, and complete trips efficiently whilst also saving energy.

Linde VNA Navigation Interface – Non-stop travel through the high rack warehouse
What can the Linde VNA Navigation Interface do?
The Linde VNA Navigation Interface is a useful addition to the Linde Warehouse Navigation. The Warehouse Navigation ensures that very narrow aisle trucks find the most efficient route between two points in the high rack warehouse at the push of a button. The truck’s Warehouse Navigation software uses the Linde VNA Navigation Interface to communicate with your Warehouse Management System. This means that the target coordinates for the next trip do not have to be entered manually, as they are fed directly into the truck’s navigation software.
Who needs the Warehouse Navigation Interface?
The Warehouse Navigation Interface is a genuine asset for all operators of high rack warehouses who already use Linde Warehouse Navigation. Once the driver has completed an order, the forklift truck automatically receives the next one. The target coordinates for the goods that need to be moved next do not have to be individually entered in the system. This saves time and considerably increases the handling volume.
