Automated solutions December 1st 2008 Elettric 80 has much
experience in providing
custom made end-of-line
automation solutions,
ranging from LGV (laser
guided vehicle) systems to
complete Freeway Systems,
for warehouses across many
different sectors.
Apart from getting a quick
return on investment, clients
buying an LGV system will
also benefit from a safer and
calmer work environment,
compared to those
with manual
trucks, claims the
company. Another
benefit is that
there are no
exhaust fumes
from the battery
powered engines.
The LGVs are
equipped with advanced
safety technology such as PLS
(proximity laser scanning),
which will cause the truck to
slow down or, if necessary,
stop until any obstacle is
removed. This reduces the
risk of accidents.
In addition, sensors in the
LGVs' forks and around the
trucks will control the exact
position where cargo is
unloaded or picked up,
minimising the risk of goods
falling and other handling
incidents. More articles from Elettric 80 AB: |
