Driverless transport in the tightest spaces
The C-MATIC automated mobile platform from Linde Material Handling is ideal for transporting material over short and medium distances in confined spaces. The load can be picked up and set down together with trolleys that the C-MATIC can drive underneath. Transport between static reloading stations or conveyor belts is also possible. Depending on the model, the automated platform can handle maximum loads of 600, 1000, or 1500 kilograms. Routes and transport orders are controlled via software. The mobile platforms navigate within the space using the QR codes affixed to the floor, stop automatically in front of obstacles, or drive round them. The safety technology and extremely compact external dimensions mean that C-MATIC trucks can also be used in places where pedestrians and other trucks are moving around. The applications of the C-MATIC trucks can be changed flexibly or expanded by combining them with additional trucks.
Safety
The C-MATIC reliably detects its surroundings using a laser scanner and reacts instantly when people, trucks, or other obstacles are blocking its path. It doesn’t make any difference whether these are moving or stationary obstacles. Real-time information processing enables the C-MATIC to adjust its speed to the situation or to remain stationary until any people or trucks have left its monitoring zone. It therefore delivers the ideal combination of maximum productivity and the highest possible levels of safety. The C-MATIC is also equipped with a robust all-round collision protection system for additional protection, especially when turning on the spot and reversing.
