Seegrid relies on the expertise of CTO Mitchell Weiss, a member of the ANSI B56 Standards Committee and Vice Chair of ASTM F45 Driverless Automatic Guided Industrial Vehicles, two globally recognized leaders in the development of safety standards for AGVs. Weiss’ extensive knowledge of AGV safety standards is invaluable to the Seegrid team. Seegrid suggests to partner with an AGV vendor that has a full understanding of industry-wide performance standards and recommended best practices for AGVs.
With so many AGV solutions on the market, it can be difficult to tell which AGV is right for an application and facility. Before investing in automation, ask the AGV vendor if robots meet high safety standards.
Because AGVs must navigate plant floors already busy with humans and other forklifts, AGV companies are required to follow a strict set of safety standards. It is important to partner with an AGV vendor that not only complies with industry standards, but is actually setting the standards for the rest of the AGV industry.
