AGVs and AMRs always connected: smarter logistics with CURWB
In modern logistics, every second counts — and every interruption costs. With Cisco URWB technology, Italtel enables a new era of seamless, wireless automation for warehouses and production environments.
Challenge
In large automated logistics centers, even a short network interruption can stop entire production lines.
Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs/LGVs) and mobile robots need uninterrupted wireless coverage and instant roaming to move freely across spaces of more than 40,000 m².
Traditional Wi-Fi networks often struggle with latency, packet loss, and dead zones, creating risks of slowdowns or collisions.
At the same time, wired infrastructures are costly, complex, and inflexible, limiting scalability and efficiency.
Solution
To overcome these challenges, Italtel deployed Cisco URWB, building a high-performance wireless mesh network that ensures reliable, always-on connectivity across the entire warehouse.
With URWB:
-
AGVs and LGVs stay connected in real time, guaranteeing smooth, safe operations.
-
Fast roaming allows vehicles to switch between access points without losing the connection.
-
The wireless setup cuts cabling costs and simplifies future reconfigurations or expansions.
Benefits
Italtel’s CURWB solution delivers measurable advantages:
-
Continuous operations – zero downtime, maximum productivity.
-
Faster logistics – uninterrupted mobility speeds up internal processes.
-
Lower costs – fewer cables, simplified maintenance.
-
Future-ready flexibility – easy to scale and adapt to new layouts or production lines.
Italtel’s role
From analysis to deployment, Italtel managed the entire project:
-
Mapping of operational areas and vehicle paths.
-
Network design and configuration to ensure full coverage and fast handoff.
-
Integration with existing logistics management systems.
-
Continuous support and consulting for future enhancements.
Thanks to this solution, logistics operators can achieve higher productivity, safer operations, and full digital agility — turning the network itself into a strategic asset.
