MLS – Sick Sensor, a new product that integrates many preeminent features is currently being used by many machine manufacturers and corporations in navigation for AGVs.
Outstanding features of MLS – Sensor SICK
- Line tracking using SICK’s magnetic line detection technology
- The ability to read 3 lines of words, helps AGV when entering intersections or intersections to accurately navigate the pre-programmed route.
- Built-in 10 markers (Makers) used to determine the exact position to help AGV perform different jobs such as: Turn left, right, stop to pick up or return goods … -> in workshops small, simple path, no need to add an RFID kit to determine the locations
- IMU built-in inertial measurement (gyroscope-like feature) based on EULER angles to calculate and keep the vehicle balanced on uneven floors…
