FAQ on Automated Guided Vehicles and Autonomous Mobile Robots
The abbreviations and terms, AGV and AMR play an important role in the automation of logistics processes: AGVs follow precise, predefined paths, which significantly improves the efficiency of production lines for industrial companies. AMRs, on the other hand, navigate freely within a defined area and thus raise the flexibility and scalability of operating processes to a new level.
AGV = Automated Guided Vehicle
AMR = Autonome Mobile Roboter
