Automated Guided Vehicles

Imagine machines with the power of three-dimensional perception, visually mapping their environment and operating alongside people in our world. This revolutionary technology has the power to change the way people and machines work together every day.
Engineered with state-of-the-art Seegrid Vision, industrial trucks are transformed into the next generation of AGVs: vision guided vehicles (VGVs).
VGVs navigate without wires, lasers, magnets, or tape, and deliver unmatched flexibility. Designed for simplicity and reliability, this flexible automation solution is offered in a line of pallet trucks and tow tractors.
Generating economic advantages and operational efficiencies, VGVs optimize workflow processes, increase productivity and throughput, and reduce labor and operating costs. VGVs improve workplace safety, reduce equipment and product damage, and deliver a rapid return on investment.
Automated Guided Vehicles require no infrastructure modification, and navigate without the use of lasers, wires, magnets, or tape. With exceptional and unmatched flexibility, your team members have the power to train routes to support your workflow and business needs. VGVs are operational in automatic or manual mode for maximum flexibility.
For increasing throughput and material flow, VGV tow tractors coupled with trailers, carts, or dollies, provide a lean automation solution, while the cost-effective VGV pallet trucks transport palletized goods. Both innovative product lines will improve your material handling processes.

Warehouse Software

The Warehouse Control System, simply referred to as a WCS, is the bridge for communications between the Warehouse Management System, or the Enterprise Resource Planning, and the automated warehouse material handling devices.

Benefits of the Warehouse Control System

• Provides an interface to an upper level warehouse management system where it exchanges data required to manage the distribution centers daily operations.
• Allows operations personnel to maintain the equipment in peak performance through the collection of statistical data on the systems operational performance.
• Provides real-time directives to material handling equipment controllers and operators that are required to complete the product routing and order fulfillment requirements.
• Allows cartons to be dynamically assigned to divert locations based on routing/order information received from the Host or configured sortation algorithms.
• Adds the benefits of accessing a graphical user interface on operational screens that functions to make control and management of the distribution warehouse a simple process.
• Allocates tasks to the various material handling subsystems as a means of balancing system activities in order to complete the required workload.

Warehouse Control Software

The warehouse control software solutions provided by Kuecker Logistics Group have been implemented in hundreds of distribution centers across the entire nation. When designing a complete supply chain management solution, material handling automation technologies are going to be a critical component.

Retrofitting Your System

 

There are a number of benefits that can be gained when selecting a retrofitting solution to fulfill the needs of your company. The primary advantage that many companies look at when making this decision is cost. Through the retrofitting of an inventory management system, a company can take advantage of updated technologies without the full expense of developing a solution that consists entirely of brand new components. Depending on the scope of the inventory management system, this savings can range from thousands to millions of dollars.

In a retrofitted inventory management solution the companies existing equipment can be re-used or equipment that has been lightly used in another operation can be integrated into the solution. Retrofitting then allows individual elements or the entire inventory management system as a whole to be easily optimized for maximum efficiency. The flexibility of being able to adapt machinery to accommodate new or different products or processes is a benefit that meets the unique requirements for many companies, manufacturers and distributors.
