An international plastics manufacturer is taking a major step toward fully automated intralogistics at its German facility. Partnering with ek robotics, the company has implemented a customized AGV solution to connect its production area with a newly built logistics center\u2014ensuring a seamless and uninterrupted material flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tailored AGV Design for Harsh Outdoor Conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At the core of this project is a specially developed model from ek robotics’ OUT MOVE<\/strong> series. Designed specifically for challenging environments, these outdoor AGVs are equipped with weather protection and customizable interior components to handle exposure to rain, snow, and temperature fluctuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robust Performance and High Payload Capacity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The OUT MOVE vehicles feature powerful conveyor systems with three independently driven roller conveyors. Each unit can transport up to 1,400 kg of materials, making them ideal for heavy-duty, continuous operations in industrial settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Precise Navigation with RFID Technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Instead of relying solely on laser navigation, the system uses an RFID guidance network embedded in the floor. This ensures precise, flexible routing across the outdoor areas, with accuracy comparable to indoor solutions\u2014regardless of weather or lighting conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boosting Efficiency, Safety, and Availability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The automated transport solution enhances process reliability, operational safety, and the availability of materials. According to the company’s project manager, the implementation marks a strategic move toward future-ready logistics with measurable gains in efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decades of Expertise in Intelligent Intralogistics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With over 60 years of experience, ek robotics specializes in scalable, intelligent transport solutions. Trusted by companies worldwide, their systems consistently deliver cost savings, operational excellence, and a competitive edge across industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
