1. An unmanned trackless order picking forklift system comprising:
- a CPU device provided in a forklift truck;
a vehicle-driving system provided in the forklift truck electrically connected with the CPU device to supply power to drive the forklift truck;
a vehicle-position-adjusting system provided in the forklift truck and electrically connected with the CPU device, with the vehicle-position-adjusting system detecting a predetermined route; and
a pallet-scanning system provided in the forklift truck and electrically connected with the CPU device to scan a designated pallet;
wherein the CPU device controls the vehicle-driving system to drive the forklift truck along the predetermined route detected by the vehicle-position-adjusting system from a first position to a second position and to further scan the designated pallet along the predetermined route, wherein the vehicle-position-adjusting system includes a first infrared detection unit detecting at least one turning point provided in the predetermined route by reflection of infrared beams.
