SWITCH
Engineered for high-throughput environments that demand speed, flexibility and precision. Bidirectional design with optional Lift & Turn module for high-density operations.
2000kg towing capacity, dual-purpose design and continuous-shift battery. engineered for demanding industrial transport.
High-Throughput Tunnelling AGV for Fast-Paced Material Handling
The SWITCH is engineered for high-throughput environments that demand speed, flexibility and precision. With a lifting capacity of up to 300kg and towing capability of up to 500kg, it is ideal for fast-paced material handling tasks.
Available as standard in either a towing configuration or basic lifting setup, it can also be equipped with an optional Lift & Turn module for enhanced functionality in high-density operations.
Its bidirectional design enables seamless forward and reverse operation, reducing cycle times and maximising efficiency in confined or dynamic spaces.
Bidirectional Platform for High-Throughput Operations
The SWITCH AGV is engineered for high-speed material handling in fast-paced industrial environments.
Available in towing, basic lifting or full Lift & Turn configurations, it adapts to operations from line-feed transport to high-density vertical handling.
Bidirectional movement enables it to switch direction without turning, saving precious floor space in narrow aisles and tight cells.
Typical Applications
The SWITCH AGV is commonly used in the following scenarios:

Frequently Asked Questions About Towing AGVs
A towing AGV is used to pull carts, trailers or multiple loads across a warehouse or factory. It automates long-distance material transport and replaces manual tugger vehicles.
A towing AGV moves multiple loads by pulling them, while a pallet AGV carries or lifts individual pallets. Towing AGVs are better suited for long-distance transport.
Towing capacity depends on the model. Heavy-duty towing AGVs such as the DOZER can handle loads up to 2000 kg or more depending on configuration.
Towing AGVs can use laser navigation for flexible routing or magnetic line navigation for fixed and repeatable paths.
Yes, towing AGVs are specifically designed for long-distance transport within warehouses and factories, making them ideal for large facilities.
Yes, towing AGVs integrate with WMS, MES and ERP systems, allowing coordinated logistics operations.
Yes, they include safety systems such as obstacle detection, controlled movement and emergency stop functions.
Towing AGVs are used in manufacturing, warehousing, automotive production and logistics operations where material movement across distances is required.
