SAFELOG GT1 Review: Specs and Uses of the 3 m/s Goods-to-Person Mobile Robot
Updated: 7 days ago
The SAFELOG GT1 is a fast goods-to-person mobile robot with a turntable, from the German maker SAFELOG. The manufacturer does not publish a price. This review covers its specifications and uses.
Quick Verdict
The GT1 is SAFELOG's warehouse specialist. It carries 1,300 kg, slightly more than the X1, and is almost twice as fast: 2.2 m/s with a load and 3.0 m/s empty. In goods-to-person picking, travel speed sets how many racks reach the stations per hour, so this matters. The body is low at 275 mm and has a spin plate. Navigation is by grid codes with LiDAR, without the track-guided options of the factory models.
