New generation of the autonomous tugger train
4am Robotics has completed its new generation of the ATi. Based on the Linde P60(C), the successor to the tried-and-tested tugger train has been created and is now available.
The combination of proven technologies from 4am and Linde resulted in a new driverless transport system to optimize the internal flow of goods against the backdrop of a shortage of skilled workers and the need to increase efficiency. The manufacturer's autonomous tugger train solutions have been established on the market for years.
Technical availability of up to 99.9 percent
The autonomously navigating transport units were developed together with industrial customers to make material transportation in companies more efficient and flexible. The retrofitted tugger trains achieve a technical availability of up to an impressive 99.9%, further increasing economic efficiency.
In addition to many other improvements, an automatic coupling is available on the new ATI to further automate the logistics process. As the components required for manual operation are retained during the conversion, 4am's Autonomous Mobile Robots offer the possibility of dual-use operation: they can be operated both autonomously and manually. This enables a gradual transformation to autonomous intralogistics while ensuring flexibility and adaptability.
Precise navigation for improved safety
Autonomization not only increases the efficiency of material movement, but also reduces the risk of accidents at work. Precise navigation and intelligent obstacle detection enable the autonomous tugger train to work safely even in the most challenging environments. "We are delighted to be leading the next standard vehicle into the future with our development, providing our customers with an innovative solution that not only increases efficiency but also improves safety in the workplace," comments Jochen Carle, Managing Director of 4am Robotics.
