Ensuring the Uptime of Your Wireless Network
For AGV and AS/RS Systems
Automated material handling (AMH) systems are expected to keep booming in the coming years thanks to developing trends in e-commerce and smart factories. Among the AMH market segments, automated guided vehicles (AGV) have the highest potential for growth (CAGR 9.3%*) followed by automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) (CAGR 7.7%*), in the 4-year period from 2019 to 2024*.
AGV and AS/RS systems are considered “mission critical” assets. An unstable wireless signal could easily disrupt the operation of these systems. To ensure continuous operation, a reliable wireless solution with seamless Wi-Fi connectivity and easy network management is an absolute must.

Your AGV and AS/RS Systems
- Simplified Network Management
- Reliable Networks for Mobile Operations
- Compact but Rugged
Simplified Network Management
MXview Wireless gives you a clear view of your AGV and AS/RS systems' wireless network through the visual interface from which you can view the real-time network topology and the network status dashboard. Moreover, whenever there is an anomaly, the system will send out an alert automatically. You can also play back the roaming history to identify and solve the root cause and get your systems running normally again as quickly as possible.
Reliable Networks for Mobile Operations
To ensure continuous AGV operations, our AWK Series AP/bridge/clients feature Turbo Roaming technology to achieve millisecond-level handoffs. Moreover, the unique MAC Clone function can be enabled on all the AWK Series to support PROFINET communication over wireless networks. Some AWK Series also support the unique AeroMag technology which automatically performs basic wireless setup when adding new Wi-Fi devices to the network, reducing the time spent configuring Wi-Fi settings and preventing errors caused through manual input.
