During ProMatDX 2021, members of MHI’s Mobile Automation Group will host an education session covering the broad variety of mobile autonomous vehicle (MAV) technologies available for automated material movement in distribution, warehousing and manufacturing. Open to all ProMatDX attendees free of charge, the session will run for 30 minutes.

The seminar, “Game-Changing Mobile Automation Applications,” will be held on Tuesday, April 13 from 2:30 – 3:00 p.m. Central time. During the presentation, prospective and current owners and users of MAVs — including automatic guided vehicles (AGVs), autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and automatic guided carts (AGCs) — will take a guided tour through select applications that have leveraged these technologies successfully. To help participants solve their own mobile automation challenges, the session will detail the unique challenges associated with the deployment of these robotic solutions, as well as how these obstacles were overcome. Participants will take away a better understanding of how strategic deployment of MAVs can yield game-changing, competitive advantages.

Those who are unable to attend the MAG session in person may still access the presentation and its accompanying audio via a recording that will be made available online after ProMatDX concludes. Registration for the entire event — including all education seminars — is free.
