What to see at the Caster booth
“AGV battery performance and vehicle maneuverability are critical in material handling,” said Doug Backinger, vice president of sales at Caster Concepts. “Specifying the right casters can significantly improve an AGV's performance, and create additional design options for application engineers. Caster Concepts works directly with customers and end users to identify the optimal caster solution for your AGV or automated cart application.”
During Automate, Caster Concepts will be demonstrating several recent advances, including:
- TWERGO AGV caster certification of 55% lower starting forces by Ergonauts, an independent third-party engineering company.
- Over 50% greater battery runtime for material handling carts using patented caster technology for heavy-duty operations.
- Introduction of TWERGO Xtreme Casters specifically designed for high-capacity aerospace and AGV applications
