Safety Solution for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)
Safety Solution for AGVs - versatile, individual and cost-effective
Do you have unique requirements for your automated guided vehicle (AGV)? With our wide range of standard and safety technologies, we can implement your requirements quickly and easily. Our customized safety solution not only includes many safety criteria such as the integration of safety laser scanners, Emergency STOP buttons or the safe evaluation of positions and speeds. It also offers solutions for orientation, signaling and drive technology as well as support for AGV control. This enables all AGVs, for example, to be switched off centrally by a safe emergency stop signal – very easily via LAN, Wi-Fi, 5G and much more.
The most important AGV-relevant safety functions – such as the integration of safety laser scanners, E-stop buttons, or the safe evaluation of positions and speeds – can be realized very easily with the safety technology from Bihl+Wiedemann. Moreover, this solution also offers many different building blocks for other non-safety-related functions, such as signaling, drive control, and even support for AGV control.

Talk with us about your AGV requirements. We will be happy to work with you to find the right solution for you. We offer many standard and safety functions. For use in an AGV, we optimize the housing according to your individual requirements.
Fieldbus-independent
Communication
Our range of solutions for AGVs enables safe data e.g. via PROFIsafe, CIP Safety, Safety over EtherCAT, openSAFETY, Safe Link and ASi. Communication via PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, EtherCAT, CANopen is also possible.
Safe
Link
Cost-effective safe data exchange between AGVs via Ethernet or WLAN. Learn more about Safe Link here.
Functional Safety
Learn how to seamlessly integrate safe sensors and actuators as well as safety monitors into all common automation systems with ASi Safety. Safe and standard signals can be transmitted on the same line.
Selection of Mode of Safe Operation
Read all about how our TÜV-certified device facilitates "selection of mode of sfae operation selection": A standard HMI allows you to safely select up to 5 different operating modes for a maximum of 6 plant sections – each with unique safety functions.
PLC Independent Safety Technology
Discover the advantages of our safety and wiring technology, which is system and manufacturer-neutral. In this way, it enables simple, fast and thus cost-effective commissioning.
Muting
Discover how easy muting is with Bihl+Wiedemann's muting modules. All signals required for muting can be connected to a single module.
