Automated Guided Vehicle Helps in Reducing Overall Operating Cost of the Companies and Efficiently Distribute Heavy Loads

 

Automated guided vehicle, or automated intelligent vehicles (AGV), help companies reduce their overhead cost. They are highly efficient when it comes to picking uploads that are too large for a forklift and can be easily operated from the driver's seat. Most automated guided vehicles are used to pick up heavy loads and transport boxes, pallets, stacks, and any other goods that are too large to be picked up by forklifts. These trucks are also used in a huge variety of other industries to move supplies to and from warehouses and manufacturing plants. An automated guided vehicle is perfect for warehouses, factories, loading docks, distribution warehouses, mining operations, and virtually every type of warehouse operation that requires a heavily-loaded conveyor system.

An automated guided vehicle is an extremely cost-efficient solution for warehousing operations that require the company to distribute heavy loads over a large area. Using a Wireline Navigation System affords a highly cost-efficient route for distributing loads. Using wireless technology on these vehicles makes them easy to program for the most efficient route and time of travel, which saves a a great deal of money on the overall operation costs. Another advantage of having an AGV is that it can be programmed to enter specific zones for specific products, thereby making it easier to ensure that goods are delivered in the same quantity to the same customer on a consistent basis.

A fully automated warehouse is a perfect solution for companies that don't ship finished products to customers on a regular basis. Automated AGVs, or automated intelligent vehicles (AGV), help companies reduce their overhead cost.

Recently, in Germany, Durr has launched its EcoProFleet of automatic guided vehicles meant for paint shops in automobile production plants.
