The glass production and logistics sector is experiencing an era of transformation thanks to the introduction of automated and technologically advanced systems. Italcarrelli is positioned as a leader in this context, contributing to the development of the automation of logistics systems at the Lannutti Mornimont flat glass logistics center in Belgium. This important complex, managed by LGV laser-guided vehicles, offers a virtuous example of automated logistics in the glass sector.
Thanks to the ITALCARRELLI PTN 330 LGV Inloader, a laser-guided electric vehicle, it is possible to transport up to 33 tons of glass sheets autonomously and precisely. The plant's efficiency and manageability are evident in the sorting area, which can accommodate up to 300 Jumbo racks and handles 200 flat glass racks daily. This result is made possible thanks to the advanced handling and logistics system, managed by the sophisticated WMS RICU software, developed by Italcarrelli.
The optimized management of logistics operations is supported by the reliability and maneuverability of the PTN 330 LGV Inloader, which uses electric motors directly connected to the wheels to guarantee precise and safe movements of the load. Safety is further guaranteed by the patented "SicurLift" system for lifting the load and by anti-collision devices that protect both the material and the operators.
Energy efficiency is a fundamental element for logistics operations, and Italcarrelli offers an innovative solution with the BES (Battery Exchange System). This system allows the autonomous change of vehicle batteries, avoiding downtime due to recharging and ensuring constant productivity.
In the process of handling glass packs, the Italcarrelli Sideloader of the EN4L series offers flexibility and precision. With the ability to lift up to 16 tons of cargo, the operator can pick glass packs from the gantry with just 2 grips, optimizing storage space and ensuring safe handling.
Italcarrelli represents excellence in the flat glass logistics sector, offering cutting-edge solutions for the complete automation of glass transport and management. The company combines Italian technology with logistical skills, creating a modern and efficient working environment. Automation allows optimal management of resources, reducing energy waste and CO2 emissions. Thanks to the use of AGV self-driving electric vehicles, an innovative traffic management system and sophisticated security and remote assistance systems, Italcarrelli guarantees precise and safe movements. The company is positioned as a solid foundation for the future development of the sector, placing automation at the center of glass management and handling technologies.
