Automatic Guided Vehicles for the Pharmaceutical Industry

Efficient and controlled material handling within the pharmaceutical manufacturing process is critical to reducing cost and maintaining compliance.

A properly designed automated material handling system will meet the needs of the pharmaceutical industry's closely monitored production, warehouse, packaging, and distribution facilities. Reduced manpower, automatic tracking of individual loads, and gentle handling of products are all benefits that can be achieved, while increasing plant safety.

For the pharmaceutical industry, applications for self guided vehicles include transportation of the following:

1. Stainless steel totes through the production process and return to the sterilization area
2. Raw materials to storage areas or from storage areas to where they will be used in production
3. Finished goods through to packaging and on to shipping.
