A tugger train solution for EVG

The key requirements for production processes: the right product needs to be available in the right state at the right time in the right place with the right information in the right quantity. A primtec solution implements all of these requirements for small parts intralogistics in the production facilities at EVG mbH.

Our sophisticated tugger train solution resolves the problems associated with small parts intralogistics in production. The required parts are delivered to assembly stations using a tugger train equipped with RFID technology. The required parts are delivered to the assembly stations using a tugger train equipped with RFID technology. The loaded transport units are automatically detected and the correct unloading stations visualized. This allows an optimal route to be chosen for only the relevant stations.

The route is displayed on the vehicle terminal and all relevant information shown during loading and unloading processes, allowing handling errors to be corrected immediately. This ultimately improves the overall process quality and ensures accurate production planning.

Thank you to everyone involved in this successful project!
