Rail-Guided Vehicles with Flexible Power Supply Options

Rail-Guided Vehicles Designed with the Right Power Solution

Power supply selection plays a critical role in the performance, maintenance, and lifecycle cost of Rail-Guided Vehicles (RGVs). To accommodate different factory layouts and operational requirements, RGV systems are available with busbar power, trailing cable power, or battery power, each offering distinct advantages.

By selecting the appropriate power solution, manufacturers can optimize system reliability, reduce downtime, and achieve the best balance between automation level and operating cost.

Power Supply Application Scenarios

Different power options are suited for different industrial environments:

• Busbar Powered RGVs – Ideal for long-distance, high-frequency, 24/7 operation

• Cable Powered RGVs – Suitable for heavy loads with limited travel range

• Battery Powered RGVs – Best for clean layouts, complex tracks, or intermittent operation

Flexible power configurations allow RGVs to adapt to both new and existing factory infrastructures.
