The challenge: Our customer's loaded transport racks weigh more than 1.5 tons and are twice as long as the AGV used to move them. The size and weight place special demands on safety during acceleration, braking and maneuvering - especially in narrow aisles or tight curves.
The solution was implemented using a KUKA KMP 1500P AGV. For this, a transport carriage was developed that exceeds the AGV dimensions and safely transports the frame via a precisely fitting mount without picking up the entire load. The safety configuration of the AGV was adapted to the new requirements. For optimal path planning, the increased dimensions were taken into account in the navigation.
