Well what is going on at Modex 2024 is Raymond and Bastain Solutions showing off their new AGV's.
“These units [AGVs] are going to show up every day, they are going to go to work every day, they’re going to cut down on damage to product, damage to the units itself.” – Kevin Lewis, Toyota Material Handling MidSouth Capital Equipment & Leasing. DENSO Corporation ships to numerous brand car manufacturers including Honda, Subaru, Toyota, Nissan, Ford and GM. Through trusted collaboration, DENSO, Bastian Solutions and Toyota Material Handling integrated five AGVs, Toyota Core Tow Tractors, supported by BlueBotics ANT® monitor and Bastian Solutions’ traffic control and routing software. These AGVs use an attached tug trailer to transport product pallets throughout the warehouse. Associates use software to designate destinations, whether its storage or the production line. Once completed, the automated vehicles return for more product. The result – 48% reduction in process defects and 33% reallocated labor to better positions with no eliminated roles. All without compromising operation safety, productivity reliability or installation speed.
