Discover the emergency lock from Kendrion for your AGV application
Automated guided vehicles (AGV) in future-oriented intralogistics and many other application areas are convincing due to their resource efficiency. Kendrion offers various electromagnetic components optimizing your AGV.
With decades of technology know-how in solenoid technology, Kendrion specializes in custom actuator solutions increasing the safety of automated systems. With the emergency solenoid arrestor, we offer a linear solenoid which is used for the safe stopping of AGV when it matters most.
AGV application: Stop safely in case of power outage
Our Kendrion emergency solenoid arrestor can bring the AGV to an immediate stop in the event of a power loss, caused for example by a short circuit or battery failure, by mechanically blocking the wheels.
This quick blocking by a locking pin increases the safety standard of the AGV. Which comes into play, for example, on a ramp with an incline. Unbraked, the AGV could roll down the ramp and endanger the ongoing operating processes.
The emergency solenoid arrestor from Kendrion can be individually adapted to the exact needs of your application.
