Muratec Premex XIO Review: Specs and Uses of the 1-Ton Compact Smart AGV
Updated: 7 days ago
The Muratec Premex XIO is a compact automated guided vehicle that carries pallets and transfers them with a built-in lifter. The manufacturer does not publish a price. This review covers its specifications, features and uses.
Quick Verdict
The XIO is a low vehicle that drives under a pallet stand and lifts it. It carries one ton and turns within 985 mm, which lets it hand over to production equipment from several directions in narrow spaces. Because the lifter does the transfer, conveyors at the handover points can be removed, and it links directly with AS/RS cranes. Muratec also uses fleets of XIOs with storage racks as a three-dimensional AGV warehouse for shelves of piece goods. Several vehicles are controlled together, and another takes over if one fails. The page gives no speed, battery or navigation details.
