AGV - An Essential Automation Tool for Factories and Why You Need It

Automated Guided Vehicles

If you are looking for an intelligent system that will provide you with efficient help to perform various jobs in an easy way, then you need an automated guided vehicle.

Nowadays it is necessary to work with several machines in order to reach a competitive level in the industrial field. Intelligent transport systems can be used to move different products automatically and easily, without the need for human intervention.

An intelligent system

At AMS we know that some jobs can be dangerous or complicated for people, that is why there are solutions such as the automated guided vehicle, since it is an intelligent transport system capable of helping to carry out jobs more efficiently and quickly, thus avoiding inconveniences.

Although they can be used in a variety of environments, their use is mostly recommended for those where the work is often very intense. An example of what we are talking about are 24-hour-a-day jobs, where the production flow is very complex, and therefore difficult for any person to handle.

We offer an automated guided vehicle, specifically designed to have a simple route configuration, and since the needs within each company can be quite different, we have several designs that can be adapted to the needs of each customer.

To clarify this point we can take as an example the Bi-Directional AGV, which was designed to work in small spaces. It has the capacity to tow inactive carts and thanks to its design made of stainless steel, it has a very long service life, so it will not be necessary to invest in another similar product for a long time.

It is very easy to maintain, highly resistant to mechanical damage and corrosion, plus it can move in both directions. Another important feature of an automated guided vehicle is that it has several safety systems, ensuring that you can operate it at all times without worrying.

Multiple applications

Usually when we think of this kind of vehicles, we have the idea that they are only used to load heavy materials and transport different types of products, however their use is very common in feeding lines, stacking units and different kinds of storage, such as blocks or shelves.?

At AMS we have an ideal design for each customer, as we also handle models designed for medium and large spaces. Precisely the Low Profile AGV, one of our automated guided vehicles has the ability to hook and tow heavy weights quite easily, as it has a hitch and a trailer.

In addition, it also has a rugged, long-lasting battery, an interface designed to be user-friendly, as well as a lidar sensor and bumper so that it can provide greater safety.

On the other hand, if you are looking for something a little more compact and lightweight, perhaps what you need is the Shark Elfin AGV. This is another automated guided vehicle, but one of its main features is that it has a higher speed compared to most AGVs on the market.

A very long life span

At AMS we handle various types of high quality automated guided vehicles. So you can find models like the Towing AGV, which are perfect for work in open spaces, since thanks to its design it has a high resistance to mechanical damage and corrosion.

We know that making an investment of this sort is not always easy, especially for small and medium-sized companies. That's why we offer products that can be used as many times as necessary, without being damaged or affecting their functionality.

In a short time you will not only be able to see how your investment pays off, but you will also enjoy working comfortably without worrying about any inconvenience. In addition to the automated guided vehicle, we have a wireless traffic monitor and control system that allows you to easily control and monitor the AGVs.

One of the main features of this system is the monitoring of the AGVs, but it also has a user interface. It includes an alarm history via WIFI communication, and its design gives you the ability to control and manage real-time traffic processes.

You will be able to customize the automated guided vehicle, depending on the work to be done and also prevent any kind of inconvenience.
