Cost Effective AGV Automation Applications Profiled in November Issue of No Risk Automation

Monroe, NC, November 13, 2014 --(PR.com)-- The November issue of No Risk Automation, a monthly e-news publication, discussed the numerous automation applications in distribution. Generally speaking the most cost effective applications must have the economy of scale and usually involve towing carts long distances.

This month’s newsletter also explored how for many years AGV (automated guided vehicle) providers have known that there is a goldmine of applications for DCs (distribution centers) but the costs have always been prohibitive. From placing product from end of aisle locations into racking up to 35 feet to automated travel with human picking, these applications are common and a good fit for automation solutions; as the costs of systems comes down, there will be a large shift in focus from manufacturing to distribution from the solutions providers.
