By: TR Cutler Egemin Automation Inc. (http://www.egeminusa.com) In the current issue of DC Velocity, in a feature article titled, “Lift trucks a sci-fi buff would love,” staff reporters suggest that the line between lift trucks and robots is quickly blurring noting the the futuristic products of Egemin. Companies in the food, beverage, plastics, consumer goods and big box retail distribution markets purchase Egemin Hybrid Automated Guided Vehicles for flexibility, familiarity, reliability, and affordability. Combined with Egemin’s Warehouse Management System (E’wms), organizations realize better than expected returns on investment. DC Velocity Staff posits the question, “What happens when you cross a lift truck with a robot? You get some pretty creative vehicles that operate autonomously— Egemin Automation's Hybrid Automated Guided Vehicle lets users operate a standard forklift either in manual mode or as an AGV. At any time, a driver can interrupt the automatic operations, take over the controls, and then return the truck to fully automatic laser-guided mode as needed. Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America Inc. (MCFA) is the primary supplier of components for the system.
