Case Study: AER Manufacturing achieves higher engine production with Dematic Compact Tugger AGVs

Automatic Transport with Compact Tugger AGVs Delivers Manufacturing Productivity

AER Manufacturing, an auto engine manufacturer, faced challenges with an outdated AGV system that increased downtime, labor costs, and reduced productivity in their Dallas facility. To address this, they partnered with Dematic to replace the old system.

Dematic implemented its Egemin Compact Tuggers, which operate automatically with laser navigation and self-charging batteries. This hands-off solution improved safety and allowed operators to focus on assembly. As a result, AER's production increased from 100 to 220 engines per day with an anticipated ROI in approximately 18 months.
