AGV/AMRs Make Moving Loads a No-Brainer
Material-handling solutions developer Kivnon expands its mobile vehicles portfolio with two autonomous mobile robot (AMR) forklifts and an automated guided vehicle (AGV) lifting platform that rotates.
Posted: April 19, 2021
Three models of autonomous vehicles – the K03 Twister, K50 pallet truck and K55 pallet stacker – from Kivnon (Barcelona, Spain) circulate around their environment using magnetic guidance or simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technology.
The company’s smallest automated guided vehicle (AGV), the K03 Twister’s lifting platform rotates while maintaining the load’s absolute position. Thanks to its small size and maneuverability, it facilitates the design of more compact and flexible solutions to lower operating times by optimizing intralogistics processes. Dimensions: dimensions of 27.5 by 19.7 by 11 inches (700 x 500 x 280 mm). Maximum load capacity: 882 pounds (400 kg).
The forklift autonomous mobile robots (AMR) autonomously move palletized loads of up to 2,204 pounds (1,000 kg) and lift heights of up to 3.3 feet (1 meter). The K50 pallet truck and K55 pallet stacker move in both directions of travel and are equipped with lifting forks to transport and handle loads vertically and horizontally.
The three models reflect the manufacturer’s new design line, with new shapes and new colors.
