Attention on the demonstration of the actual AGV “KEYCART”

AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) is attracting a lot of attention from participants since the wide range of industries will get benefit from its installation.

The main body of the KEYCART is exposed without a cover so that the user can easily devise how to use it or add necessary functions later. Therefore, the price of the main unit is kept to a minimum. At such an exhibition, its features can be seen up close and be easily understood.

Magnetic tape was attached to the floor of the venue to show actual movements such as forward, backward, and rotation on the spot. When it gets close to the feet of visitors, , the obstacle sensor works and stops automatically, offering a demonstration of the safety features.

Automated warehouse (AS/RS) and moving rack, that are key to labor saving

Automated warehouses (AS/RS) and moving racks are important for promoting FA and labor saving. By combining it well with the AGV, further efficiency can be achieved. However, "In Thailand, I feel that TOYOTA has a strong impression of automobiles and forklifts in the field of material handling. I want all the customers to know that we can make comprehensive on-site improvement proposals," says Ms. Sirinda.
