Automated guided vehicles (AGVs)

Automation in intralogistics

We drive automated vehicles.

With STILL iGo, we offer you different vehicle-based expansion stages for the automation of your intralogistics, which can be individually adapted to your requirements.

Hardly any other solution comes with as much potential for process optimisation, data exchange and networking as automated systems. Robots, autonomous vehicles and driverless transport systems (AGVs) play a major role in this.

It is therefore not surprising that an enormous development has taken place in recent years. Huge amounts of R & D are going on, and not only the large and established AGV manufacturers are investing and researching in them. There are also hundreds of start-ups, technology and software companies trying to capture the market in this area. Our experience is that this can be quite confusing for companies that want to start automating their processes.

Not every technological innovation is always the economically sensible one for your task. We make sure that you don't get lost in the jungle of digital Industrie 4.0 offerings and accompany you as partners:

No matter what stage you are at in your automation project, we will determine the exact mix of technical solutions for your intralogistics and always keep a close eye on your return on investment.

Fit for the future. Standardised and scalable solutions for every automation requirement.
Economical. Suitable automation solution with ROI consideration.
Flexible. Different levels of automation: The level of automation is determined by your processes.
Safe. Modern navigation technologies and personal protection
Complete. Mobile and stationary solutions for completely automated supply chains.
Plannable. Short reaction times both in the conception and preparation of offers, as well as in the implementation of projects.

Project management and implementation of automation solutions

A reliable partnership

Once the conceptual design of your automation solution has been successfully completed by our sales engineers, the realisation and implementation phase begins. The entire process, from detailed planning implementation to commissioning and handover of the finished system into operation, is coordinated by an experienced project manager. With a great deal of know-how, farsightedness and leadership competence, he always keeps all the strings in his hands, maintains an overview of all process steps and project phases, ensures the smooth flow of information and materials and also guarantees that all work processes are set up and implemented according to aspects of efficiency, productivity and sustainability. He solves the small and large challenges of everyday project work and is your competent contact person on site. He always keeps you up to date on the project status and provides you with transparent information on the individual process steps. Reliable, results-oriented and based on partnership - for maximum project success.

Typical application scenarios for automated guided vehicles

As part of the IFOY, our intralogistics automation experts have recreated typical scenarios for the use of driverless transport systems in intralogistics. The video looks at the following scenarios:

Incoming goods
Handover to production
Production & assembly
Outgoing goods
Handover Delivery
Mixed SKU picking
Handover of outgoing goods and loading of lorries

AI-supported automatic warehouse - More performance for Danfoss

"So in the near future, we will pick less manually and more automatically. Our new warehouse is well prepared for this, as we paid attention to the scalability of the warehouse during the careful planning: In the wider aisles, where currently the production parts are still manually assembled on pallets, we can install more racks for automatic picking."

Henrik Rosendahl Laursen, Warehouse & Distribution Consultant, Danfoss Distribution Services
