Laser Guided Vehicle

A Laser Guided Vehicle moves pallets from the production line and acts as the link between end-of-line machinery within the warehouse. The vehicle's systems may include Energy, Safety, Fork/Load handling and Guidance and Control systems.

LGV is also known as an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) or Self Guided Vehicles (SGV). In Germany the technology is also called Fahrerlosen Transportsystemen (FTS) and in Sweden förarlösa truckar.
