[Case Study] Replacement of Competitor's AGV

We have upgraded the transport weight from 2 tons to a maximum of 3 tons! Here are examples of ensuring the safety of surrounding workers.

We would like to introduce a case where Yoshu Short Board Industry Co., Ltd. replaced an AGV from another company that was introduced 24 years ago. The company was transporting 4-meter-long, 2-ton metal round bars, but maintenance became difficult due to aging. They were also struggling to find a manufacturer capable of replacing the AGV and handling long items. With the replacement, the transport weight was increased from 2 tons to a maximum of 3 tons. In addition to forward and backward movement, lateral movement and diagonal movement were made possible. Moreover, prioritizing safety above all, laser obstacle sensors were installed on the front and sides to ensure the safety of surrounding workers. 【Case Overview】 ■Industry: Manufacturing ■System Implemented: Unmanned Transport System ■Client: Yoshu Short Board Industry Co., Ltd. (Metal Processing Manufacturer) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
