Automated transport of medium/heavy-weight loads

The use of unmanned transfer vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) is expanding at logistics sites, driving the automation of horizontal transfer. However, in multi-story buildings, interfloor transfer still involves processes that rely on manual labor, such as pallet handling, which can be a barrier to automating the entire facility. To address this challenge, HOKUSHO proposes a “Fully Automated Horizontal + Vertical Transfer Solution” that automates not only horizontal but also vertical transfer.
