Autonomous Forklifts Key to Material Handing According to Nic Temple VP of U.S. Sales at Global AGV

Nic Temple is the Vice President of Sales for Global AGV, a designer and manufacturer of simple autonomous forklifts used to improve efficiency and reduce operational costs when compared with traditional material handling solutions. In other words, automation through simple point to point pallet transports with driverless forklifts. 

Temple shared, “Our product lowers the entry requirements for companies looking to automate their material handing by focusing on simple intuitive interfaces for natural feature-based navigation of horizontal pallet movement in manufacturing or logistics applications. We also have our own line of pallet magazines to dispense new pallets either to one of our forklifts or in line with a palletizing cell.” 

With over seventeen years of experience, he has developed relationships with customers to address business’s performance improvement requirements by applying world-class cutting-edge technology. He holds a BSME from Virginia Tech and an MBA from the Australian Graduate School of Management (AGSM). 

About Global AGV:

Fewer than 2% of forklifts sold in North America are automated, yet, due to the pandemic, there has never been a greater need for this technology. Many manufacturers are looking to automate material handling processes because it reduces the potential for COVID-19 exposure by reducing human contact. The pandemic has made autonomous forklifts an immediate reality for small footprint manufacturing facilities.  

Forklifts will be replaced every 5 – 7 years. A manufacturer currently operating just a few units will exchange the next forklift purchase in 2020 with an autonomous forklift to discover the true value that automation can bring to the operation. Autonomous forklifts provide automation which reduces movement costs per pallet and per case. 

Global AGV driverless autonomous forklifts offer a straightforward interface solution: a simple point to point horizontal movement of pallets, offering the opportunity of buying only 1 or 2 units at a time. The breakthrough is selling an automated forklift as a product rather than a project. If the manufacturer wants a turnkey solution, a local network of dealers is available. Global AGV customers order a standard product which can be delivered in weeks. Local dealers help to ensure a low-cost quick installation in just days rather than months.
