Premex SLX Automated Guided Vehicle

Murata Machinery USA Inc. recently introduced its new Premex SLX Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) to the North American market.

The Premex SLX is designed to handle 40 inch-by-48 inch pallets with a load capacity of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) and has a traveling speed of 90 meters per minute. This unmanned forklift is compatible with both mobile racks and pallet racks and has a lifting height of 14 feet (4.2 meters).

The AGV uses SLAM (localization & mapping) technology, which eliminates the need for guide path, reflecting plates, or laser guidance. It also possesses a three-wheel drive system, which allows the vehicle to turn in its own footprint.

The vehicle can work in up to -13F degrees (-25C degrees).
