Types of AGVs for Warehouses: Automation in Motion

In the quest to optimize warehouse management efficiency, companies are increasingly turning to automation. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), are one of the leading technologies in this logistics revolution. In this post, we will explore the types of AGVs used in warehouses and how Synersight can enhance their integration and operation.

Transport AGV: Transport AGVs are the most common and versatile types. They are used to move materials and products within the warehouse, replacing tasks that previously required human labor or material handling equipment. With Synersight, you can further optimize their routes and scheduling for greater efficiency.
