Automated Guided Vehicles

 Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) ensure safe, accurate and continuous unmanned collection and delivery in a variety of applications in warehouses and hospitals. These AGVs rely on batteries for their traction power. Saft Ni-Cd and Ni-MH batteries offer a number of advantages:

  • fast charging and heavy cycling capability
  • adoption of an ‘opportunity charging’ regime for round-the-clock availability and reduced fleet size
  • high power density, for reduced battery size and weight: helps the AGV to carry a greater load.

 

AGV batteries

Saft batteries for AGVs include STH and STM Ni-Cd batteries, as well as NHP Ni-MH batteries. They offer the advantages of:

  • high energy density, for maximum range
  • low or zero maintenance.
