AGV extension for higher throughputs

Since 2007, custom-built transport robots have been responsible for intralogistics processes at beverage manufacturer Niederrhein-Gold Tersteegen GmbH & Co. KG in Moers.

After the system was expanded in 2019 to include vehicles for transporting industrial pallets, new transport robots will be added this year, opening up further functional areas such as the high-bay and cold storage warehouses and ensuring even higher throughputs and efficient material flows with their continuous operation.

Outdoor AGV at Gerolsteiner, Germany

Since 2013, Gerolsteiner has relied on ek robotics' expertise in the field of driverless transport systems (AGVs). In the outdoor area, five OUT MOVE transport robots with robust weather protection cladding reliably connect production with the warehouse.

The vehicles transport up to six pallets at a time, automatically pick up and deliver them via roller conveyors, thus ensuring a smooth flow of materials. Thanks to the fully automatic battery changing station developed by ek robotics, the transport robots operate around the clock – regardless of weather conditions.
