The Concept of Integrating Interactive Safety Signs into In-Plant Traffic Flow Optimization and Safety Management
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Modern manufacturing companies are characterized by complex internal traffic processes, both pedestrians and forklifts. This results from frequently changing machine locations and thus internal routes, but also from specific production needs, e.g. in the context of customer requirements. Such dynamically developing processes cause problems with ensuring the safety of employees who must move particularly carefully in the production halls. The answer to these problems may be interactive safety signs, which increase employees' attention to dangers, but require a lot of resources for their correct installation. This article presents the concept of implementing interactive signs on the example of a selected production hall. Based on its implementation, a discussion on the required time and cost resources for their installation is also presented in comparison with the benefits and barriers to this implementation.
