Charglink is Smart Charging Technologies' charger utilization intelligence solution for forklift and motive power fleets. It monitors how industrial chargers are actually being used—including utilization, charging activity, and energy consumption—so organizations can right-size charging infrastructure and reduce unnecessary waste using real operational data.

Charglink is used by operations managers, facilities managers, and fleet managers responsible for motive power fleets in warehousing, manufacturing, food and beverage, retail distribution, and other industrial operations. It helps organizations understand whether their charging infrastructure matches actual operational demand.

Charglink, Charger Utilization Intelligence for Motive Power Fleets

Gain continuous visibility into charger utilization, charging activity, and energy consumption to support infrastructure right-sizing, reduce waste, and make more informed operational decisions.

VISIBILITY INTO HOW CHARGING REALLY HAPPENS

Turn charging behavior into decisions that reduce waste and improve utilization.

Charging infrastructure is often managed with limited visibility, leading to underutilized chargers, inefficient charging patterns, and unnecessary energy costs. Charglink transforms charger utilization, charging activity, and energy consumption data into operational intelligence that helps organizations identify inefficiencies, right-size charging infrastructure, and reduce waste across their operations.

Key Features:

Charger Utilization Intelligence

Understand how motive power chargers are actually being used across shifts, departments, and facilities. Identify underutilized assets and support charger infrastructure planning with real utilization data.

Charging Activity Visibility

Collect charger utilization, charging activity, and energy consumption data through cellular connectivity and cloud-based reporting to identify inefficiencies and support charger infrastructure planning.

Energy Consumption Visibility

Track motive power charger energy usage and demand trends to identify opportunities for cost reduction and improved charging efficiency.

CONTINUOUS VISIBILITY THROUGH SMART TELEMETRICS

Access Charger Intelligence Across Your Fleet Operation

Frequently Asked Questions

Connect with our team

What is Charglink?

Charglink is Smart Charging Technologies' charger utilization intelligence solution for forklift and motive power fleets. It monitors how your industrial chargers are actually being used — utilization, charging activity, and energy consumption — so you can right-size infrastructure and cut waste instead of guessing.

Is Charglink only for forklift chargers, or does it work with EV charging too?

Charglink, from Smart Charging Technologies, is built specifically for industrial motive power fleets — forklifts, pallet jacks, and material handling equipment — not passenger EVs or road vehicles. If your "fleet" means trucks and forklifts in a warehouse, this is built for you.

How is Charglink different from OEM telematics systems?

Most OEM telematics platforms (Hyster, Raymond, Toyota, Crown) are built around their own truck brand and don't monitor chargers at all. Smart Charging Technologies built Charglink to be brand-agnostic — it works across any truck, any battery, and any charger brand in a mixed motive power fleet, and charger intelligence is its entire focus, not an afterthought.

Who uses Charglink?

Operations and facilities managers running 10–200+ forklift fleets in warehousing, food & beverage, manufacturing, or retail distribution use Smart Charging Technologies' Charglink — anyone who needs to know if they're paying for chargers they don't need, or missing chargers they do.

Does Charglink require Wi-Fi or IT setup?

No. Charglink connects over cellular, so it works independently of your facility's Wi-Fi or network infrastructure. Smart Charging Technologies designed it this way for faster deployment and no dependence on warehouse connectivity.

Can Charglink work with our battery and truck monitoring, or is it standalone?

Charglink is one part of Smart Charging Technologies' Smart Telemetrics platform — it works alongside Battlink (battery intelligence) and Truklink (truck utilization) for a unified view of your motive power fleet, or it can run on its own if charger visibility is your only priority right now.

What is forklift fleet management software?

Forklift fleet management software provides operations teams with visibility into how their forklift fleet — including trucks, batteries, and chargers — is actually being utilized, enabling informed decisions about equipment and infrastructure based on real data rather than assumptions. Smart Charging Technologies' Charglink covers the charger side of that picture: utilization, charging activity, and energy consumption across your motive power fleet.

Does forklift fleet management include charger telematics?

It should. Most forklift fleet management and telematics platforms focus on the trucks themselves and leave charging infrastructure as a blind spot. Smart Charging Technologies built Charglink to fill that gap—charger-specific telematics that work alongside truck monitoring to give a complete picture of your motive power fleet's energy footprint.
