MIWA Robotics is the world’s leading tech company specializing in logistics robot intelligent systems. With its partner-Mushiny AI, we have businesses in more than 20 developed countries and regions. We have shipped over 3000 AGV/AMRs since establishment. Our Goods-to-Person AGV/AMR solution was developed by our key founders of the company, most of whom are former Amazonians.
AGV solutions are the way of the future when it comes to the supply line. Not only in storage, but also with management and distribution. Robotics have taken the world by storm and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) have become incredibly popular in the way we manage our warehouses.
6 Reasons to implement a warehouse AGV
1. Flexible loading options
AGVs can adapt to the size and makeup of your packages or parcels. They are highly customizable and updatable. This includes the weight they can withstand as well as size and configuration.
2. Cleaner and quieter
AGVs require less maintenance and produce less noise pollution. They are extremely clean and quiet. One of their most important features is that, since they can operate independently, you can program them to work in off-hours. This last feature gives you greater control over noise contamination and how it affects your workforce.
3. Easy to install
Like most of its family members, drones, robotic vacuum cleaners, and all those AI-supplemented tools, AGV warehouse systems are incredibly easy to install, configure, and modify. They are adaptable to any space and can be updated to meet new challenges and growth issues.
4. Sleek and more lean
You will no longer have to deal with conveyor belts that are static and partly cemented into space. AGVs give your warehouse an open design that you can take advantage of. Automated Guided Vehicles are programmed to return to their charging station when necessary, usually scheduled during downtime in operations. Their road, the highway they use during hours of operation, is cleared whenever you need it.
5. Lower staff cost
Your overhead, when it comes to training and retaining, suddenly decreases. You no longer need a huge workforce to manually pick and pack items or transport and sort them. AGVs are a great investment that pays dividends for years to come.
6. More efficient, safer
AGVs are robots – they are guided by smart technology and constantly update algorithms. Today’s automated guided vehicles have cameras, WiFi connectivity, collision sensor, laser-guided mechanism, and dozens of other tools that reduce the possibility of safety violations. They are human error-proof.
Why You Need AGVs
All warehouses can benefit from AGVs – either on a grand scale or on a much lower one. They help maintain your competitive edge and adapt rapidly to challenges. They are a one-time investment that gives your team greater leeway when it comes to the things they can do and the contracts they can take. We can also offer leasing options if it suits your operations better. MIWA Robotics partners with multiple AGV vendors to provide you with units that meet your unique requirements.
