BALYO VEENY Review: Specs and Uses of the 17 m Robotic VNA Turret Truck
Updated: 7 days ago
The BALYO VEENY is a robotic turret truck for very narrow aisles, lifting pallets to 17 m. The manufacturer does not publish a price. This review covers its specifications and uses.
Quick Verdict
Very-narrow-aisle storage is the densest way to rack pallets with trucks, and the hardest truck job to automate, because the mast sways at height. VEENY handles pallets at up to 17 m in aisles from 1.8 m wide, with 3D cameras under the forks and compensation for mast movement. Like all BALYO robots it is built on a standard forklift from an established truck maker and can be driven manually when needed. It navigates by 3D LiDAR and SLAM, with no reflectors or floor markers.
