Online calculators & tools for work platforms, forklifts and telehandlers

With our practical online tools, you can calculate all the important operating values for work platforms, telehandlers, and forklifts in seconds.

Whether it's slope, load-bearing capacity, or soil load – the calculators help you realistically assess risks, select the right equipment category, and better implement safety regulations according to DGUV and TRBS .

Our tools are free, mobile-friendly, and ideal for site managers, landlords, safety officers, and operators who want to make informed decisions directly on-site.

Overview of our online tools

Slope angle calculator

Calculates the maximum permissible inclination angle for ramps or terrain. Ideal for assessing stability.
