Premiere for self-propelled underride tractor from MLR
The AGV manufacturer MLR has developed a self-propelled underride tractor for universal load carriers (ULT) and special load carriers (SLT). The 2,000 millimetre long, 800 millimetre wide and 470 millimetre high driverless transport vehicles drive under the load carriers
at the pick-up stations, lift them and transport them to the destination station. The automated platform trucks transport loads of up to 1,500 kilograms and reach speeds of up to 1.6 m/s. The energy management of the intelligent transport vehicles is designed for 3-shift operation. The fast-charging LiFePo4 batteries are automatically recharged and have short charging times. This means that the shortest driving breaks can be used for intermediate charging. The innovative energy concept also includes an economical snooze mode and a wake-up function. Optional features include a trailer coupling with automatic drawbar docking, RFID and barcode readers and operation via industrial tablets. Initial inquiries from the automotive industry have already been received.
