AGV systems

Ideal for most types of material handling, AGVs perform their tasks safely and reliably. With modern navigation options and custom cargo handling, these AGVs are efficient in both highly complex logistics systems and simple A-B scenarios. AGVs can operate as an autonomous system or, if connected to an ERP, as a fully integrated subsystem of a complete installation.

Logistics plays a central role in the era of the fourth industrial revolution and contributes significantly to the concept of Industry 4.0. Intelligent transport systems, which use automated guidance, are an innovative solution to meet the challenges of contemporary intralogistics.

The range of solutions for fully automated intralogistics systems comprises self-guided transport systems and the fleet of AGVs serves a variety of solutions for transporting large and small loads, creating a logistics network covering various warehouses and work areas. This solution can be flexibly configured and extended to meet specific customer requirements. The benefits of using such a solution include significantly reducing operating costs and increasing the efficiency of warehousing logistics.

Self-guided vehicle applications

Introduction to warehouse automation and material flow optimization using AGV support as part of new feature technologies that cover the acute need for resource finding in logistics processes. This is reflected in our ability to offer a wide range of AGV solutions for a wide range of applications. The proposed solutions start with the transfer of small transport units, such as containers and cardboard boxes, to areas with limited space. Larger self-guided vehicles equipped with forklifts or transport elements for pallets and roller containers increase flexibility for demanding transport, storage and retrieval activities.

AGV systems can be flexibly integrated into each unique warehouse organization, solving tasks from simple transport of goods from one person to a fully automated solution as part of a complete system.

Self-guiding vehicles use laser or sensor-based optical navigation. This guarantees you 100% reliability combined with state-of-the-art technologies. In addition, these vehicles with autonomous navigation are fully compatible with lithium battery technology, enabling high-performance logistics concepts capable of operating 24 hours a day.

Benefits of AGV systems

• Scalable and flexible automation of intra-company material flows
• Sustainable reduction of cycle times
• Low investment and operating costs. Minimum need for infrastructure construction
• Reduction of subsequent costs (by minimizing transport damage and incorrect deliveries)
• Optimal adaptation to the dynamic requirements of the logistics market
• Unique configuration of individual AGV fleet
• Maximum flexibility for taking over in the warehouse
• Easy and safe transport of various goods and cargo carriers
• Easy integration and low requirements for (IT) infrastructure
• Improved ergonomics and optimal material flows
• Increased operational safety and improved working conditions
• Suitable for use in demanding environments (freezing environments or hazardous areas)
• Innovative energy concept (automatic and fast charging)
• Greatest flexibility in system adaptations and extensions

AGVs are part of a broader trend of developing intelligent transport systems. In the future, AGVs are expected to connect and cooperate with other autonomous vehicles and smart infrastructure to create a more efficient and safe transportation environment.
