Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs): Practical, Intelligent Automation
At Transicon, we support manufacturers in creating smarter, more efficient environments through the integration of Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs).
As experienced control systems integrators, we help automate material movement in a way that improves productivity, reduces manual handling, and supports safe, continuous operations.
What is an AGV?
An Autonomous Guided Vehicle (AGV) is a mobile robotic platform designed to transport materials safely and efficiently within a facility — without a human driver. AGVs navigate using onboard sensors, mapped environments, or guidance markers, and can be integrated with production lines, storage areas, and dispatch zones.
They vary in size and function, from compact load carriers to high-capacity pallet-handling platforms, and are increasingly used across sectors to improve flow, reduce manual tasks, and support round-the-clock operations.
At Transicon, we work with a range of specialist AGV platforms and tailor each integration to the needs of the site — from navigation and control to workstation coordination.
What We Offer
Our engineering team works closely with clients to integrate AGVs into both new and existing systems. We focus on seamless control integration, safe and reliable navigation, and precise interaction between AGVs and production workstations.
We don’t just supply AGVs — we deliver complete, mechatronic solutions built to solve real-world automation challenges.
As a UK-based integration partner, Transicon provides the intelligence and control layer that ensures AGVs operate reliably, efficiently, and in full coordination with your wider operations.
We also deliver MES (Manufacturing Execution System) solutions, and in many cases interface AGV systems directly with production planning tools — enabling real-time coordination and supporting data-driven decision making.
Why Work With Transicon?
• End-to-end delivery – From concept and design to installation, commissioning, and support
• Tailored automation – Solutions built around your specific workflows and operational goals
• Reliable navigation – Safe, accurate movement through dynamic environments
• Smart workstation coordination – Ensuring AGVs interact cleanly with people, equipment, and tools
• MES integration – Linking AGVs with production data, schedules, and traceability systems
• Improved safety and flow – Reducing manual handling and streamlining internal logistics
Our approach is practical, collaborative, and focused on long-term results. If you're exploring AGV technology or looking to expand existing automation, we'd be happy to help. Get in touch to learn how AGV integration can support your next stage of growth.
