Warehouse AGV

Smarter movement of goods drives safer, more efficient warehousing. And while quality warehouse workers are efficient and adaptable, they’re also human. Mistakes are bound to happen, from simple picking errors to more serious collisions and accidents.

This is one of the reasons that the popularity of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) is growing. Warehouse AGV solutions in NZ form a key component of warehouse automation, helping to streamline material handling, reduce manual labour and boost safety.

As a trusted provider of automated warehouse solutions in NZ, at Storepro we’re proud to bring this leading-edge technology to ambitious and forward-thinking New Zealand businesses.

Automated guided vehicles are robots that can move inventory around a warehouse by travelling from point A to point B along a fixed path.

Warehouse AGVs are the ideal solution for any business that deals in high inventory volumes, or that currently takes a manual approach to the repeated and predictable movement of goods around a facility.

AGVs come in a few different forms – unit load carriers, tow vehicles, forklift-style – and can navigate using sensors, laser guidance or magnetic tapes stuck to the warehouse floor.

• Significantly improve productivity and operational efficiency, as AGVs can work 24/7/365.
• Significantly reduce manual labour costs, and direct your workers to higher value tasks.
• Minimise instances of human errors, accidents and workplace injuries.
• Enjoy consistent goods handling, which can be continually optimised through deep data analysis.

• Capitalise on high-density storage layouts, which AGVs can comfortably navigate.
• Complete repetitive, high-volume transport tasks accurately and with zero fuss.
• Scale your operations efficiently and effectively, without needing to recruit more warehouse staff.

Applications of AGVs in New Zealand warehouses

What are some of the use cases for automated warehouse solutions in NZ? Almost any warehouse, production facility or logistics hub could make use of AGV technology, and can do so in a range of ways:

• Intralogistics support: Loading and unloading areas and staging zones, e.g. moving pallets from inbound areas to racking zones.
• Production line support: Ensuring a steady flow of parts and materials to relevant parts of a manufacturing production line.
• Help in challenging conditions: Facilitating the efficient management and flow of inventory in cold storage, high heat or other environments that may be dangerous for workers.
• Complete automation integration: Integrating AGVs with automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) and shuttle/satellite racking solutions.
