Safety at Material Handling Facilities

Material handling within a production or warehousing company tends to have many accidents due to the risk that material handling can represent for the company and the employee.

That is why, through robotic engineering and new technologies, companies are constantly looking for and implementing new systems that allow the transfer of goods within the company in a safe and, above all, easy-to-handle way.

As a result, we can see the inclusion of robotics in companies with greater ease. Thanks to the constant updating of robotics, today we can count on autonomous and secure technologies to transport loads of heavy material without the direct intervention of human labor; one of these technologies is the agvs system. 

How AGVS Systems Improve Safety at Materials handling Facilities

AGVs system is one of the safest and most reliable solutions for transferring and moving material within a company. Moreover, their installation is simple and adaptable to any company, regardless of its environment.

Having coded programs with specific functions makes it easier to handle materials without the direct intervention of common labor. This means that a person doesn’t need to intervene by driving the vehicle where the material is moved, but rather, through a sophisticated control screen that this AGV’s system is equipped with. Thanks to this, you can manipulate the transfer of the same through a wifi connection, and, if that is not enough, it has the advantage that you can change the transfer route almost without any difficulty.

A bonus point about the AGV’s system is that they have a rechargeable battery. These AGVs system are made to last a full working day, and if they are discharged at the end of the working day, these devices are coded to move themselves to their charger, making it very practical for you to avoid having to move it yourself.

This also translates into less risk of accidents, but to maintain this level of safety, you must have sufficiently safe areas to minimize the continuous stops of the AGV’s system intralogistics; the material supply carts must have a compact design and be as stable as possible. The reason is that sometimes these materials must be moved together by elevator to the production area, so the load that can be carried in each transport operation is maximized by ensuring that the trolleys have a low weight.

Reduce Accidents with AGVS Systems

The average labor force has witnessed hundreds of accidents within companies dedicated to producing or storing products and materials. That is why nowadays, it is very common to see videos of how people driving carts transporting goods end up causing accidents that can be very detrimental to the company. This can affect the company in different ways, from the most obvious ones, such as the monetary loss due to the damage of such articles and materials, as well as damaging the company’s image and making it look like an unsafe company for any employee.

Although nothing is indeed 100% safe, it is a guarantee that the AGV’s system has significantly minimized the percentage of accidents within companies.

As mentioned several times, since they are coded with perfectly coordinated actions, from how they load the materials to their proper transfer, it is very difficult for them to present any error during the process. These processes can be manipulated from a control screen in any part of the company (as long as they are connected to the same wifi network).

Increase Productivity by Increasing Order Accuracy with AGV systems

If safety is essential for a company’s better productivity, then an automated guided vehicle (AGV’s system) is the right choice.

At AMS, we have AGV’s system manufactured with green technology. This means that, in addition to being safe for your company and for the employees that collaborate within it, it guarantees that they will be kind to the environment, which in other words, can also translate to reducing the raw material it needs.

Whether it is an AGV’s system or any other industrial automation device, you won’t have to worry about the consumption of water, electricity, gas, or any other resource they may need because being green reduces the use of these resources.
