The purpose of material handling in a factory is to move raw materials, wip, finished parts, tools, and supplies from one location to another to facilitate the overall operation of manufacturing. For this purpose, varied innovative material handling equipments are launched to satisfy many industrial requirements. One amongst these bulk material handling systems are automatic guided vehicle systems commonly named as agvs.
automatic guided vehicle systems are one of the most exciting and dynamic areas in material handling today. These automated material handling systems are independently operated, self-propelled vehicles that are guided along defined pathways in the floor. The vehicles are powered by means of on-board batteries that allow operation for several hours. Different types of agvs include driverless trains, avg pallet trucks, agvs unit carriers, monorails and many others. Bulk material handling equipments supplied by different manufacturers and suppliers provide material movement for customers in varied industries such as automotive, chemicals/plastics, hospital, newsprint/newspaper, commercial print, paper, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, warehouse and distribution center and many more.
