Focus on infrastructure-based automated parking in parking garages and maneuvering in vehicle factories and logistics centers. Kopernikus Automotive provides a solution that can be cost-effectively implemented in any parking garage, hotel or airport. “In the future, cars in a factory, logistics centers and in parking garages will be moved autonomously. Kopernikus and. Continental are working together to develop a safe, comfortable and affordable solution,” says Ralph Lauxmann, head of Strategy and Future Solutions, Autonomous Mobility and Safety business unit at Continental. Collaboration between Continental and Kopernikus will be demonstrated live in action for the first time at IAA Mobility Munich 2021.
Jungheinrich is automating the material supply for Audi's engine production in Györ, Hungary. Six EZS 350a driverless tow tractors are being used for this purpose. Along their 1,000-metre-long route, the automated tugger trains are serving 57 stops, thus enabling particularly efficient and reliable transport.
Identifying defect sources, determining the optimal maintenance schedule, improving manufacturing processes: until now, artificial intelligence only made this possible in a paint shop equipped with state-of-the-art robots. Now, however, Dürr is significantly expanding the scope of its AI applications with the enablement of analysis software from the DXQ product family for sealing. In addition, a unique interface solution makes it possible to incorporate robots from existing paint shops for the first time.
