Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/26/2013 -- Modern Materials Handling recently reported that Seegrid's flexible AGV robot will be demonstrated live at the Trilogiq USA 2nd Annual Expo on October 10, 2013.

The event will allow participants to learn more about the flexible AGVs Seegrid. There is a corresponding a white paper and video which explains how and why these robots are becoming a popular choice for distribution centers and manufacturing plants. The complimentary white paper examines labor costs, aging workforce, and safety as well as 3PL as another aspect of distribution automation. The paper also explores the option for leasing a flexible AGV as part of the financing model.

According to the recent issue of Modern Materials Handling newsletter, “Seegrid’s flexible automated guided vehicles were announced to be the next hot trend in distribution centers. Until recently, automated guided vehicles were not a trend in distribution centers. With rising labor costs, limited real estate, and pressure to become more lean and profitable, DC managers are turning to automated guided vehicles (AGVs) to accomplish these demands.”
