Transport Robots: Oversized & Heavy Loads

Move large assemblies and steel structures between processes or across industrial sites. Select a dedicated transport system by load, centre of gravity, support points, and floor conditions. Autonomous transport of super-large blocks remains in development and demonstration.

Core functions
  • Support and transport large loads with multi-axle platforms or coordinated vehicles
  • Transport planning and validation based on centre of gravity, load distribution, and route
  • Design fleet control, obstacle sensing, and stopping functions for each autonomous application
Customer value
  • Aim to reduce driving and guidance workload during heavy-load movements
  • Validate routes and load geometry in advance to coordinate assembly and transport
Check before deploying
  • Total weight, dimensions, centre of gravity, support points, floor capacity, gradients, and turning space; ordinary sub-tonne AMRs are not substitutes
  • Distinguish self-propulsion or remote control from autonomous driving; verify trials at the required load, safety design, and stopping distance
  • Hyundai Movex's super-large-block transport is an R&D project; commercial model, capacity, lead time, and Japanese supply are unconfirmed
