Automated Guided Vehicle

TransCar Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) help hospitals take control of their on-demand and routine material transport activities. By using self-guided vehicles, staff can remain focused on patient-care activities instead of delivering materials, thereby improving quality of care and reducing operational costs.

Leveraging its expertise in material handling solutions for hospitals, Swisslog developed this AGV system to efficiently and reliably transport supplies, medication, linens, meals, and waste streams throughout the hospital. The TransCar Manager Software optimizes vehicle usage and ensures consistent delivery performance through defined driving paths with defined speeds. As a result, hospitals can achieve leaner workflows, while reducing injury to personnel and damage to facilities.

Swisslog provides a preliminary needs analysis to help hospitals define what, where, when, and how materials can be transported with the AGV system, as well as an estimated return on investment. Once implemented, TransCar can be easily adapted or scaled to meet changing needs or future expansion.

AGV Bulk Material Carts

To meet facility-wide transport needs, a wide range of specialized cart types is available for TransCar AGV systems. Each cart is fitted with an ID tag for tracking locations and reporting. By using TransCar across multiple departments, hospitals can increase their ROI and improve overall workflow 24×7.
