Guided by Seegrid Technology Teams with Yale Tow Tractor Featured in ThomasNet News
Pittsburgh, PA, April 06, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Jeff Christensen, director of product development for Seegrid, shared, “Our teams worked together closely to create a superior product, and the integration of the Guided by Seegrid navigation system and the Yale tow tractor is seamless. Our vision guidance technology provides a simple and affordable automation solution that Yale customers are going to love.”
ThomasNet News, the largest publisher of industrial product reported that the Yale MO50T Tow Tractor Guided By Seegrid requires no additional infrastructure for navigation such as wires, laser targets, or magnetic tape. Operator trains vehicle by driving desired route while programming selected behaviors. During training, vision system captures images of environment and compiles images into 3D map for route navigation. Capable of learning and storing up to 25 miles of routes, MO50T is suited for towing flatbed cars, trains, or carts with payloads up to 10,000 pounds.
David McNeill, warehouse products manager for Yale noted, “Adding Seegrid’s vision-guided technology to our already cost-effective MO50T provides another customizable materials handling solution that will boost performance and efficiency for our customers. The technology is easy to implement in existing warehouse applications and provides the versatility for the MO50T tow tractor to function as an AGV or in manual operator mode.”
