In situations such as operating with loads exceeding its capacity, the necessary warnings are given via sensors. 15 This is ensured and it is possible to automatically stop the machine when necessary. This system is being introduced to improve workplace safety and reduce accidents in industrial machinery. It aims to prevent and extend the lifespan of machines. STATE OF THE ART 20 In current industrial machinery, especially forklifts, the load curve and working angles... Various occupational safety labels and manual inspections aimed at keeping things within safe limits. These systems exist. However, these systems depend on operator initiative and may be misused. or work accidents can occur as a result of negligence. 25 Some forklift models have mechanical systems designed for specific heights and weights. Although balance systems and manual warning labels are available, these solutions are ineffective against operator inattention. or, if it takes excessive risks, it cannot completely prevent accidents. In current systems... Some balancing mechanisms used are only possible with mechanical or passive safety measures. 30 It is limited, and integrated sensor systems that actively monitor the working angle are not common. In addition, there are automatic safety features that control the cornering speeds and turning angles of the construction machinery. These systems are mostly found in advanced and high-cost models, and in the sector It is not included in most standard forklifts. Speed ​​and cornering controls are usually operated by the operator. 35 It relies on experience and manual intervention, which prevents misuse and tipping. It increases the risks. 2 According to the known state of the art, application number TR 2017 / 23152 refers to a “Warning alert system”. The patent application titled "Forklift" invention states: "This invention, especially in production facilities such as factories..." safely transporting materials from one place to another and to high places It is equipped with a warning system that detects collisions, which is used in its placement. It is summarized as "it is related to a forklift (1) where accidents are prevented". 5 According to the known state of the art, “A forklift training simulator” is the application number TR 2016 / 03240. The patent application titled "System for raising awareness of occupational safety" states: "The invention aims to raise awareness of occupational safety in Türkiye and worldwide." increasing the number of trainings and providing occupational safety trainings in scenarios that closely resemble real-world environments, and testing them. this involves analyzing operators' habits, identifying potential accidents they might experience, and 10 Raising awareness before an accident happens, conducting exams under real conditions and on real equipment. It is summarized as "a forklift training simulator system that enables this." Therefore, current technical solutions fully guarantee the safe use of forklifts. unable to obtain, it will minimize operator errors and ensure that the machines operate automatically and safely. 15 a need for a more advanced and integrated system that will allow it to work within different angles is being born.

The goal is to develop a system that provides information through audio and visual alerts. (Study) If the angle reaches critical levels, the system will intervene automatically. The aim is to stop the vehicle. 35 This system can be created by installing tilt sensors on the forklift chassis. The aim is to continuously measure the working angle. Data obtained from the sensors... 3 The data is transmitted to the control card for analysis, and the operator is given an instant warning at risky angles. It is required that if the operator continues to work at a risky angle, the system's hydraulic valves and The aim is to restrict the forklift's movement through a motor control mechanism. In addition, during excessively fast cornering, the speed is automatically monitored via angle measuring sensors. The aim is to limit this. Thus, the risk of the forklift tipping over is significantly reduced. 5 The aim is to ensure the safety of both the operator and the cargo being transported.
