The Seegrid vision guided vehicle (VGV) GP8 pallet truck uses Seegrid Vision™ to map its guidance within the existing environment. No infrastructure, facility modifications, or engineering resources are required for the VGV to operate. Position the GP8’s forks under the pallet(s), enter a programmed route on the keypad, and the vehicle navigates without wires, lasers, tape, or magnets.
Designed for easy operation and flexibility, the pallet truck utilizes WalkThruThenWork® deployment and Vision technology to provide operators complete vehicle control to quickly modify or add routes without engineering support. Within a warehouse, distribution center, or manufacturing facility, reduce your materials handling cost per move by eliminating waste in labor resources typically used for non value- added transport activities.
Ideal for applications such as putaway, long hauls, replenishment, staging/sortation, and cross docking, the VGV pallet truck improves worker and facility safety, reduces labor and operating costs, and reduces product, facility, and equipment damage, increasing productivity and profitability. Designed for optimizing material flow and throughput, the VGV can be deployed as a stand-alone or scalable automation solution. Integration with current software systems, such as Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) or Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), maximizes the use of VGVs in a facility, improving operational efficiency.
With safety a priority for all Seegrid products, the GP8 pallet truck meets U.S. safety related standards when used as directed by properly trained personnel. The GP8 vision guided vehicle operates in both automatic and manual mode.
