Siemens Dematic’s heavy duty, highly reliable DT-60
Automatic Guided Vehicle is used for towing trailers,
carts, hand pallet jacks, etc. in a manufacturing or
distribution environment.
The DT-60 Automatic Guided Vehicle provides
efficient and economical solutions, capable of moving
up to three times more material than conventional unit
load AGVs, while reducing labor costs where routine
point to point deliveries occur. The DT-60 AGV
provides greater flexibility than conventional methods
of horizontal transportation. AGV Towing Systems
provide continuos and consistent material movement.
The DT-60 is available with the state of the art
Siemens Dematic Virtual Path
Guidance using an
onboard gyroscope to determine AGV headings and
positional information. The onboard computer
controls navigation, communication, drive control and
safety systems.
The DT-60 is also available with Siemens Dematic’s
revolutionary Q-CAN
TM
system controls. Q-CAN
(Quick Configurable AutomatioN) utilizes a standard
program that permits quick, easy system design, and
allows users to make changes to their own AGV
systems.
