Transbotics

Automatic guided cart for automotive assembly lines

Ideal for use in assembling automotive seat components, a new automatic guided cart system of vehicles from Transbotics navigates around a fixed guide path of two complete loops while various seat models are assembled onboard the traveling cart.

Made of magnetic tape, the guide path installs in a few hours for accurate guidance with flexibility for layout changes. The carts are equipped with an on-board, color touch screen that controls nine selectable speeds.

A stationary, off-board control system with programmable logic control and color touch screen communicates wirelessly with the AGCs to relay system activity to a host computer.

Since 1982, Transbotics Corporation has specialized in the design, development, installation and support of Automatic Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Automated Guided Carts (AGC’s) and transportation robots, including custom engineered vehicles to provide proven, reliable material handling solutions and warehouse management products.
