WE CAN HANDLE IT FOR YOU! UP TO 50 TONS - WE HAVE THE RIGHT VEHICLE FOR THE TRANSPORT OF HEAVY LOADS.

Automated heavy transport with AGVs

Since 2021, ek robotics has been revolutionizing RHI Magnesita's production site in Radenthein, Austria with twelve customized automated guided vehicles. Three transport robots from the CUSTOM MOVE series are handling heavy transport. With an inclinable and powerful lifting frame, the transport robots are able to carry a load of up to 16 tons. Their dimensions are correspondingly large: The vehicles, which weigh over 10 tons, measure over 4.3 meters in length and 3 meters in width. They transport the refractory products through narrow aisles, over rails and set them down at the tunnel kiln with millimeter precision.

The result: increased safety, sustainably efficient material flow and minimized downtime in the plant.
