transport flows

Operating AGVs in the same spaces as manual trucks is a growing and very real challenge, especially on complex, space-constricted sites. How can transport flows be optimized? Who has right of way? How can efficiency-killing deadlocks, and accidents, be avoided?
With ANT locator, the live coordinates of your manual trucks can be integrated directly into BlueBotics' ANT server AGV fleet manager or your existing intralogistics/fleet management platform. This enables the software to automatically manage interactions between automated vehicles, manual trucks, and even human staff - allowing you to use your space as intelligently as possible - without deadlocks and without accidents.
For your material handling operation to run efficiently, knowing the precise location of every pallet is key. But while the drop-off points of automated vehicles like AGVs are pre-programmed, knowing the precise drop-off location of every manual truck's payload is far from a given.
ANT locator enables you to trace the exact location of every payload by knowing the exact location of every manual truck - at pick-up, at drop-off, and everywhere in-between.
One of the biggest barriers to optimizing the use manual forklifts is knowing how they are already being used. Which flows are most common? Are drivers using the most efficient routes?
The precise vehicle positioning data ANT locator supplies allows you to improve your company's manual truck flows by understanding and optimizing their usage based on real-world insights. No asking, no watching, no guessing - just track, analyze, adjust.
ANT locator by BlueBotics is a highly precise vehicle and payload tracking solution. It provides the exact live coordinates of assets like manual forklifts, enabling you to fully optimize your internal logistics flows by seamlessly managing mixed manual/AGV fleets, tracking the locations of goods moved by manual truck, and improving how forklifts are employed based on real-world usage data.

ANT locator delivers precise manual vehicle positioning data, live, to ANT server fleet manager or your fleet management/WMS system, which can be used to manage physical or virtual traffic light systems, or to drive more intelligent, more granular traffic management strategies.
With ANT locator integrated into your manual trucks, highly precise vehicle positioning data can be communicated directly to your existing WMS/logistics software. This, in turn, enables the payloads of these vehicles to be traced accurately across your site.
ANT locator delivers positioning data directly to your fleet management/WMS software, which in turn can transmit advice to drivers to improve flow efficiency and boost on-site safety.
Our expert team supports your ANT locator integration every step of the way. This includes visiting your site during the integration of ANT locator into your vehicle, and supporting you at your customer’s site the first time these tracked vehicles are deployed.
