With the continuous improvement of manufacturing automation, enhancing part processing accuracy, production efficiency, and shortening manufacturing cycles has become critical. Automated systems built with smart forklifts will drive precision and transformative execution modes across the manufacturing, production, and transportation industries. To meet market demands, smart forklifts require bidirectional, high-speed network connectivity to ensure seamless information flow across departments. These systems empower non-professional users through intuitive interfaces, such as web menus or tablet controls, simplifying operations.

5G Smart Logistics Parks further expand applications by integrating AI, big data, and augmented reality (AR) to enable intelligent delivery, automated sorting, and dynamic resource optimization. This supports automated data perception, precise resource scheduling, and smart decision-making, building intelligent management, digital production, and unmanned security systems for comprehensive logistics upgrades.

4G/5G Hybrid Networking Advantages

• High-Speed 5G: Enables <10ms latency for AGV path planning and collision avoidance.
• 4G Backup: Ensures connectivity in areas with unstable 5G coverage, such as remote warehouses or underground facilities.
• Cost Efficiency: 4G reduces deployment costs where ultra-low latency is unnecessary (e.g., status reporting).

Application Example:
In automotive factories, 5G handles real-time AGV coordination, while   industrial 4G routers provide failover for non-critical data transmission like inventory updates. Hybrid systems using SR800 routers maintain uptime even during network congestion or 5G outages.

By integrating 4G/5G industrial routers like the SR800, enterprises achieve flexible, future-proof connectivity for smart forklifts, balancing speed, reliability, and cost in industrial IoT deployments.
