Premier material handling provider brings cutting-edge counterbalance, reach, straddle, and VNA AGV technologies directly to the western U.S market
TotalWarehouse.com, a leading provider of comprehensive material handling solutions, announced a groundbreaking expansion of its warehouse automation capabilities through the strategic direct import of Dematic’s complete Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) forklift portfolio. This transformative partnership brings four distinct categories of intelligent AGV forklifts to the North American market: Counterbalance AGVs, High-Reach AGVs, Straddle AGVs, and Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) AGVs, positioning TotalWarehouse.com as the premier destination for advanced warehouse automation solutions.
Complete AGV Forklift Portfolio Import
TotalWarehouse.com now offers the full spectrum of Dematic’s industry-leading AGV forklift technologies, each engineered for specific warehouse applications. The Counterbalance AGVs feature counterweights at the rear of the vehicle to eliminate the need for support legs around loads, allowing the lift mast to be integrated at the front while keeping the AGV clear of the load. These units excel in single, double, and quadruple pallet applications, replacing repetitive manual forklift tasks across diverse warehouse environments.
High-Reach AGV Technology for Vertical Optimization
The imported High-Reach AGVs are specifically designed for high-bay single selective and double-deep racking, with reach capabilities up to 10 meters. These sophisticated systems serve as ideal alternatives to fixed cranes in Automatic Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RSs), excelling in put-away and retrieval operations while interfacing seamlessly with existing warehouse infrastructure. This technology enables businesses to maximize vertical storage space while maintaining automated precision.
VNA AGV Systems for Space-Constrained Operations
The Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) AGVs are designed to work in warehouse aisles narrower than 6.5 feet (78 inches / 2000 mm), capable of storing pallets at heights up to 36 feet (11 meters / 430 inches). Also known as trilateral AGVs, these specialized units maximize storage density in space-constrained facilities while maintaining full automation capabilities. This technology is particularly valuable for operations requiring high-density storage with automated precision.
Straddle AGV Innovation for Specialized Applications
The Straddle AGV systems imported by TotalWarehouse.com feature support legs that straddle loads, providing enhanced stability for specialized material handling applications. These units excel in environments requiring precise load positioning and are ideal for operations involving non-standard pallet configurations or specialized storage requirements.
Advanced Operational Capabilities Across All Models
All imported Dematic AGVs can automatically lift, rotate, and shift loads, carry loads to and from racking, and store and retrieve them in block-stack or deep-stack lanes over 10 meters high. They can transport loads over long distances to deliver them to and collect them from a wide range of conveyors. These capabilities ensure comprehensive material handling automation across all warehouse zones and operational requirements.
24/7 Autonomous Operation Excellence
The complete AGV portfolio operates continuously without human intervention, dramatically reducing labor costs while eliminating human errors that can cause costly damages and operational inefficiencies. Each AGV system features advanced navigation technology, sophisticated sensor arrays, and collision avoidance capabilities that ensure safe, reliable operation in dynamic warehouse environments. The systems provide predictable logistics performance and eliminate operational bottlenecks that traditionally constrain warehouse productivity.
Integrated Fleet Management and Optimization
All imported Dematic AGV systems include advanced fleet management software that optimizes routing, scheduling, and resource allocation across multiple units. The autonomous vehicle systems follow configurable guide paths to optimize warehouse storage, picking, and transport functions in a wide variety of environments. This intelligent coordination ensures maximum efficiency and prevents operational conflicts between multiple AGV units.
Comprehensive Applications Across Industries
The diverse AGV portfolio serves multiple warehouse applications including repetitive pallet movements, put-away and retrieval from storage locations, warehouse-wide product transfers, empty pallet replenishment, and raw materials handling. The systems are optimized for single selective racking, pallet live storage, drive-in rack configurations, and floor block stacking operations. This versatility makes them suitable for manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, e-commerce fulfillment operations, and specialized storage applications.
Strategic Market Positioning and Competitive Advantage
By directly importing Dematic’s complete AGV forklift portfolio, TotalWarehouse.com eliminates traditional distribution markups while ensuring rapid delivery and comprehensive support services. This strategic approach enables competitive pricing while maintaining access to world-class German engineering and proven automation technology. The direct import model also ensures consistent product availability and streamlined technical support.
Integration with Broader Automation Strategy
The AGV forklift import represents a foundational element in TotalWarehouse.com’s comprehensive warehouse automation strategy. The company is simultaneously expanding its offerings to include complementary mobile robots, autonomous material handling systems, and integrated warehouse management technologies. This holistic approach ensures clients can implement complete automation ecosystems that optimize entire warehouse operations from receiving through shipping.
“The direct import of Dematic’s complete AGV forklift portfolio represents a transformative moment for North American warehouse automation,” said a TotalWarehouse.com spokesperson. “We’re bringing our clients immediate access to four distinct AGV technologies that address every conceivable warehouse application – from narrow aisle operations requiring VNA units to high-bay storage demanding reach capabilities exceeding 10 meters. This comprehensive portfolio ensures we can design optimal automation solutions regardless of facility constraints or operational requirements.”
The spokesperson continued, “Our partnership with Dematic goes beyond simple product distribution. We’re establishing a new standard for warehouse automation accessibility, combining world-class German engineering with our North American market expertise and support infrastructure. This enables us to deliver turnkey automation solutions that provide immediate operational improvements and rapid return on investment.”
