Welcome to Industry 4.0
Automated Guided Vehicles can safely move all kinds of goods without human intervention within production, warehouse, and distribution environments. AGVs are the most preferred material transport systems that reduce costs, increase efficiency and revenues.
We define AGVs as "Electric, battery-powered, computer-controlled, unmanned mobile material transport systems. AGVs have defined routes or areas in which they can navigate."
AGVs differ in terms of application areas, load-carrying equipment, load capacity, the load to be transported and the number of fleets in a system.
Driverless transport systems (AGVs) are in-house, floor-mounted conveyor systems with automatically controlled vehicles whose primary task is material handling, but not passenger transport. They are used inside and outside buildings and consist essentially of the following components:
- One or more driverless transport vehicles
- Control system
- Facilities for determining location
- Infrastructure and peripheral facilities
