The Raymond Corporation, in collaboration with Seegrid Corporation, introduces the Raymond Courier 3020 tow tractor automated lift truck. The truck is designed to automate horizontal towing in a number of operations, including the transfer of parts to production lines, and finished goods to warehouse facilities. Towing up to 10,000 pounds, the Raymond Courier 3020 combines Seegrid’s expertise in automation with Raymond’s end-to-end warehouse solutions and lift truck proficiency for a combined answer to the industry need for automating repetitive and time-consuming hauls that are labor intensive.
The Raymond Courier 3020 features the Raymond ACR System, which delivers longer battery life with precise speed control, less downtime, and reduced cost of ownership. With the addition of the iWAREHOUSE fleet management system, customers gain even greater visibility into their automated and manual mixed fleets. Time in automated mode (man-off) versus manual mode (man-on) is measured and reported through iWAREHOUSE and can be compared to entirely manual vehicles to ensure optimal usage of each type of vehicle.
iWAREHOUSE, in conjunction with Seegrid’s Supervisor software, provides the most robust tracking and reporting of mixed-technology fleets in the industry, optimizing uptime by reporting unit status of the combined fleet. Seegrid’s Supervisor software provides an intuitive yet robust business rule framework for easily integrating automation into existing operational systems.
