How Does It Work?

PowerHIVE™ systems combine proven automation and power systems to simplify material handling operations. The process starts when an operator parks their equipment—such as electric forklifts or tuggers—in the designated area. By stepping on a weight-sensitive mat, the system activates, ensuring operator safety throughout the process.

Once triggered, the PowerHIVE reload system scans the equipment and leverages the Hive's intelligence to select the the optimal battery replacement using the robotic arm. The used battery docks into an intelligent charging station to recharge optimally to save energy and money while extending battery life. The driver gets back on their equipment and drive off--the whole process taking about 2 minutes.

The system utilizes 1 battery size across all equipment types providing customers the flexibility to scale up and change out equipment types as their operation demands.

Who Is It For?

The PowerHIVE™ system is designed for facilities that never want their operators to think about power again. It is the ideal solution for large, multi-shift facilities that want to drive productivity KPIs without a major change management effort. For operations looking to eliminate the space, the cost, and the complexity of maintaining a dedicated battery room, PowerHIVE systems offer a fully automated alternative. It’s also perfect for facilities that turned to lithium battery forklifts or hydrogen but have found the solutions incomplete, too costly or still requiring too much attention. Additionally, PowerHIVE is enabling a whole new generation of propane-fueled forklifts to electrify without "charge anxiety" Whether your goal is to maximize fleet uptime, reduce your charging footprint, or simplify energy management, PowerHIVE™ delivers a scalable, future-proof solution for modern material handling operations.

PowerHIVE systems are for any facility planning a battery or equipment purchase.

PowerHive™ is an automated forklift power management system that reduces battery reload time to 2 minutes.
