TOYOTA BT RAE160 AUTOPILOT REACH TRUCK – Advanced Automation The RAE ‘Autopilot’ series is a hybrid AGV based on a manual Reach Truck with a fully integrated navigation and safety system. The RAE ‘Autopilot’ series attains all the reliability and serviceability as with the manual version and inherits all the added benefits of an automated vehicle. Analysis of projects completed from around the globe using the RAE ‘Autopilot’ series yielded a number of efficiency and productivity gains. Firstly, the use of the RAE in high bay racking environments greatly improved the safety of the operation and in conjunction reduced the amount of damaged product significantly. Secondly the RAE ‘Autopilot’ enables warehouse operations to run a third shift under minimal supervision, this assists the warehouse operations to perform replenishments and non-peak tasks throughout the night without the need for a complete shift of labour. As a result, this increases the throughput of the warehouse as the high demand tasks can be put into focus during the day shifts.
