Cooperation
DMG Mori and Jungheinrich develop automated guided vehicle systems
DMG Mori and Jungheinrich are jointly developing driverless transport systems for automated material flow. The first product can be seen at EMO Hannover.
DMG Mori and Jungheinrich have entered into a development partnership for driverless transport systems, or AGVs for short. "Two innovation leaders are accelerating the digital transformation: Together, we are combining Jungheinrich's expertise in the field of automated guided vehicles with DMG Mori 's holistic technology and automation solutions - creating significant added value for our customers," says Dr. Lars Brzoska, CEO of Jungheinrich AG, about the cooperation. The two companies presented their first product, the DMG Mori PH-AGV 50, at EMO Hannover 2019. The AGV enables the fully automated loading and unloading of workpiece pallets on machine tools.
Christian Thönes, CEO of DMG Mori AG: "Automated Guided Vehicles - AGVs for short - are an important innovation component for the digital factory of the future. With the driverless transport system, we are offering our customers another product in automation and digitalization." The advantage of automated transport systems is that they can be used efficiently in terms of space and thus sustainably reduce transport times and significantly cut assembly and logistics costs. The jointly developed autonomous pallet handling system can be ordered from EMO. The PH-AGV 50 is modularly expandable, moves freely in the production halls using laser navigation technology and aligns itself independently to the machines.
