Lödige Industries unveils new automated guided vehicle for airfreight ULDs in Munich

October 10, 2019: Material handling solutions supplier Lödige Industries unveiled its new automated guided vehicle (AGV) for the transportation of airfreight Unit Load Devices (ULD) at the ‘Inter Airport Europe 2019’ trade show in Munich.

The driverless, computer-controlled, wheel-based carrier features a 5-feet and 10-feet model for different sizes of ULDs, with the larger variant capable of lifting and transferring palletised loadings.

This innovation (AGV) fits well with our company history,” said Philippe De Backer, chief executive officer at Lödige Industries.

Claimed to be faster and reliable, the AGV can boost operational efficiencies in baggage and cargo transport by taking advantage of data-based functions to assign routing precisely via warehouse management systems.

The flexible AGV is a tool for managing space scarcity and enables operators to free up staff for higher-value assignments.

The German company says that the new AGV has the potential to lower the fixed costs by replacing floor-mounted roller conveyors.
