There are many different AGV manufacturers on the market. Autonomous transport systems, also known as automated guided vehicles (AGVs), are central elements of modern production and logistics systems. These automated vehicles transport materials of different sizes, weights and shapes – from standardized transport crates and pallets to complex components and entire workstations. Equipped with advanced sensors and navigation technologies, autonomous transport systems move independently and precisely along a defined network of routes. They optimize workflows, increase efficiency and support companies in the digitalization and automation of their processes. With their versatility and reliability, autonomous transport systems are indispensable for the logistics of the future.
With ProLog Automation you have discovered the market leader for AGV services. ProLog Automation has a large partner network of AGV manufacturers. The experts will advise you independently of the manufacturer as to which system is best suited to your intralogistics.
An autonomous transport system is an intelligent, driverless vehicle that automatically transports materials, goods or products within a defined area. Equipped with modern sensors, navigation technologies and control software, it navigates independently to automate processes in logistics and production environments efficiently, safely and precisely.
Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) consist of one or more automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and operate on fixed routes with centralized control and are suitable for predefined tasks in stable environments, while autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) navigate flexibly and intelligently in dynamic environments by using sensor technology and artificial intelligence. AGVs offer less flexibility, while AMRs can automatically adapt to changes and work efficiently in real time.
Autonomous transport systems consist of one or a number of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) such as fork-lift AGVs, piggyback AGVs, tractor AGVs, underride AGVs, assembly AGVs, heavy-duty AGVs, mini AGVs, outdoor AGVs or special AGVs, which are designed for different transport requirements in logistics and production.
Autonomous transport systems (AGV robots) offer a high degree of scalability, as the number of vehicles and transfer stations can be easily expanded. They allow flexible adaptation to changing layouts and can easily cope with fluctuations in dynamic material flows. Thanks to individually adaptable load handling attachments, autonomous transport systems can transport almost any material safely and reliably.
Autonomous transportation systems are safe because they are equipped with advanced sensors, real-time monitoring, intelligent route planning and emergency shutdowns to avoid collisions.
Autonomous transport systems are flexible and can transport goods of different sizes, shapes and weights – from small components to heavy pallets or sensitive medical products.
We can discuss your specific requirements in a personal consultation and show you in the AGV basic check whether the system is technically feasible and economically viable. We also offer you the opportunity to read our white papers, which provide you with valuable knowledge about AGV projects.
Autonomous transport systems consist of one or more autonomous transport vehicles, a central control system, precise location determination, data transmission and the associated infrastructure with peripheral equipment.
A single autonomous transport system essentially comprises a robust chassis, a powerful computer, one or more drives, a reliable power supply, a customizable load handling module, a communication module, a safety component for operation in mixed environments and a user-friendly user interface.
If you would like to find out more about autonomous transport systems, we recommend our basic AGV training course or our free white papers, which provide you with detailed insights into the functionality and benefits of this innovative technology.

Projects
I was particularly impressed by the detailed documentation of their maintenance intervention with repair. Every step was carefully recorded, which not only created transparency, but also enabled us to better understand the process and build on it in the future.
AGV Maintenance
With the AGV basic check, the on-site inspection, the determination of all relevant conditions as well as analysis and the transport matrix were created. Advice on technical and economic feasibility was particularly important for us, as the ROI is not given in this area of Groz-Beckert's work.
AGV Basic Check
The service technicians who were made available to us in the current project were a fantastic fit, both in terms of their qualifications and on a personal level, very motivated and equipped with the necessary skills to provide our team with the best possible support. I would particularly like to emphasize that the structures and organization at ProLog Automation were able to send the service technicians to Switzerland at any time.
AGV Maintenance
The AGV training enabled us to exchange technical information, discuss open questions on the implementation of AGVs, occupational safety and legal regulations and the AGV experts Volker Single and Holger Scholz were able to develop practical solutions together with the LISTA team.
AGV Trainings
ProLog Automation has been supporting us in servicing and commissioning our automated guided vehicle systems for more than 5 years. We can always rely on ProLog's very reliable and highly trained team, with whose support we have recently successfully realized projects in Germany, Turkey, Egypt and the Netherlands.
AGV Commissioning
The topic of AGVs was new to us and we had no experience. With the AGV basic check, we were able to familiarize ourselves in detail with all the topics for an automated guided vehicle system in order to select the right manufacturer for us. Some of the highlights were the technical expertise and punctuality of the employees deployed on site. We were particularly satisfied with the reliability and clear communication during the entire course of the project.
AGV Basic Check
The practice-oriented and effective planning and advice has fully convinced us, although the desired product does not yet exist, we have a detailed and comprehensive overview with the feasibility study. I was particularly impressed by the expertise of the staff on site. We would like to emphasize the very good communication and punctuality. The schedule was always adhered to. Our idea of the service was fully realized. The next steps will follow with ProLog Automation.
AGV Basic Check
Thanks to the procedure with the FTS basic check, we have dealt with all the important questions! We were not previously aware of the extent of the criteria, such as what we need to consider in the event of a fire! The presentation of the advantages and disadvantages of the various systems was also particularly important.
AGV Basic Check
Successful training of Pramac AGV Premium Partners: Our dealers are now fit to advise on our Lifter Mobile Robotics AGV solutions! Together with ProLog Automation, we have laid the foundations for a successful collaboration. "The opportunity to see the APTIX in action directly at ProLog has ideally combined theory with practice!" We look forward to the successful implementation of many projects!
AGV Trainings
