Efficient and safe flow of goods: holistic safety concepts for automating and operating AGV systems

Mobile platforms such as automated guided vehicle (AGV) systems are making a considerable contribution to efficient processes in production and logistics. Both humans and AGV systems must be protected from collisions, and downtimes must be avoided. But what is needed to guarantee this? The right safety solution and an understanding of the specific application and the normative framework. A holistic approach is the best way to harmonise safety and productivity – from the individual vehicle to the complete system.
