50T Heavy-duty Omnidirectional AGV for Metal Coil Transport

In the metal processing industry, the handling of heavy raw materials such as steel and aluminum coils is a critical but challenging task, with traditional forklifts or rail vehicles often proving inefficient, unsafe, and inflexible. To address these issues, a 50-ton capacity heavy-duty omnidirectional AGV has been developed for metal coil transport, suitable for moving raw materials, semi-finished, and finished products within workshops and between facilities. It can operate as a single unit or in tandem, with a customized fixed saddle design to secure coil-shaped loads and prevent rolling.

Features

High load capacity: 50 tons, suitable for heavy coils and metal materials.
Omnidirectional mobility: Precise movement and positioning in confined factory spaces.
Single or tandem operation: Flexible use for different load requirements.
Customized saddle design: Secures coil-shaped loads, preventing rolling.
Obstacle-crossing capability: Ensures stable transport across varied workshop conditions.
Efficiency & safety: Reduces manual handling risks while improving logistics productivity.
