Pittsburgh, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/25/2014 --For many reasons, companies are using automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in materials handling, all of which will optimize the operation of their manufacturing, warehousing, or distribution facility. This initiative is making them more successful in their competitive market. Dori Kozak, Marketing Manager at Seegrid, makers of AGVs, explored ten reasons why manufacturers and distribution centers should consider automated solutions in the company’s blog.

Kozak explained, “The most sophisticated driverless system for delivering product to the rightful destination is an AGV solution. When examining solutions that will work best to increase productivity, and improve efficiency and safety, choosing the specific equipment for the application is an important consideration. To determine if AGVs are the equipment that will improve transport of materials handling operations, we offer reasons to deploy AGVs for that task.”
