Often resistance to automation is due to obsolete, incomplete, or simply incorrect information. We attempt to dispel some of the common misconceptions surrounding automation.
What is an AGV System?
Automatic Guided Vehicles, “AGVs” or transportation robots, are driverless, computer-controlled material-handling vehicles. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are also known as LGV (Laser-Guided Vehicle). These vehicles are programmed to transport materials through designated pickup and delivery routines within a facility.
12 Tesla Split-Coil Magnet System
We are excited to announce we have shipped our highest field magnet to date, an HTS-110 12 tesla split-coil system to be used as a research tool in the measurement of current carrying capacities of the high-transition temperature superconducting wires.
Benefits of Robotic Palletising
Palletising in any manufacturing plant presents many operational challenges, from production efficiencies to safety considerations.
Contract to supply X-Ray Scattering Magnet
We are delighted to announce we have been selected to provide a custom-designed magnet to the prestigious Brookhaven National Laboratory.
Collaborative Robots get friendly with small businesses
Collaborative Robots foster a harmonious partnership between humans and machines making them the perfect integrated solution for small-medium manufacturers.
AGV Safety
An Automated Guided Vehicle solution is an extremely safe system, with reliable operation. The advanced safety features mean that there is no damage to the products, buildings, or machinery. In addition, employee safety on the work floor improves significantly. Our AGV solutions ensure a peaceful and healthier work environment, which results in less sick leave.
ROI for Automated Guided Vehicle Systems
There are a number of items that should be reviewed when deciding to purchase an automated guided vehicle system and Return-On-Investment (ROI) is one of those items. This section is intended to give you some guidance as you investigate implementing an automatic guided vehicle solution for your business.
Preventative Maintenance for AGVs
Automatic Guided Vehicles that are properly maintained can last for many years, even decades, before needing to be replaced. Keeping a regular preventative maintenance schedule will exponentially extend the life of your AGV and help provide optimal efficiency for you.
