Natural feature navigation

Natural feature navigation, also called SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) navigation, uses laser scanners that identify objects in the environment. The system compares these measurements with previously created map points to position and navigate AGVs.

Navitec uses its own proprietary algorithm that ensures the highest position and navigation accuracy in the market.

Vehicle automation

Navitec can automate any type of vehicle. Any vehicle is possible, no matter how small or large, and how many drive axes. We guarantee integration time and functionality. The vehicle integration will take much less time than our customers expect.

Fleet - Control + simulation

Navitec provides a highly flexible fleet management solution:

High traffic density, dead-lock free, complex route systems, precise docking, automatic pallet/load finding. Fully integrated with the factory environment. Communication with hand-held devices, PLCs and WMS/WCS/MES.

Different vehicle types and third-party vehicles in the same system are possible (VDA 5050).

With the simulation tool an efficient planning of new systems
can easily be achieved.

WMS / WCS

Navitec systems has partnered with Roima, a solution platform provider for intra and outdoor logistics (WMS, WCS, ERP, MES). Roima offers a modular cloud-based real-time software solution that integrates seamlessly with Navitec Fleet Control. Roima has over 30 years of experience in intralogistics and is a specialist in continuous improvement of supply chain efficiency.

Vehicle automation

Navitec can automate any type of vehicle, independent of size, type of drive system (electric or hydraulic), number of drive axes, and environment (indoor + outdoor in any weather).

We offer free assistance for vehicle design and guarantee the shortest integration time at a fixed price.
