Presentation

The MLS is a magnetic line guidance sensor for navigating automated guided vehicles and carts. Navigation is done by aligning the sensor to the center of the magnetic line. Sensor positions are transmitted to the vehicle control via a CANopen interface. The sensor reliably differentiates between up to three lines.

The vehicle can therefore maneuver through branches and line junctions with no problem. When selecting the magnetic band and the installation height, the MLS allows for a lot of freedom and is available in various variants with different detection ranges.

This enables high flexibility when it comes to design and retrofitting. Magnetic marks for additional vehicle commands can be attached to the side next to the line.

Fields of applications

• Line guidance for automated guided vehicles and carts (AGVs/AGCs) with magnetic band
• Fine positioning of automated guided vehicles
