Sky-Trax Announce the Launch of their Central Controlled Vehicle (CCV) Program
Sky-Trax Inc. announce the next generation of automatically guided vehicles, the CCV.
New Castle, Delaware, April 21, 2008 - Sky-Trax, Inc. is proud to announce the official launch of their latest project, the Central Controlled Vehicle (CCV) Program. Due to hit the market in December of 2008, Sky-Trax and working with GENCO Supply Chain Solutions will change the AGV world with the introduction of their CCV and its next generation of designed capabilities that will bring new levels of automation to the materials handling industry. The CCV Program is the next generation of warehouse automation, venturing into a world where remote controlled vehicles work side by side with manned vehicles.
The CCV program is more than the new AGV as it will optimize warehouse productivity through a central command system, communicating with both CCV and manual vehicles. CEO of Sky-Trax, Mitch Silver stated, “It is a very natural step for Sky-Trax, Inc. as the CCV program is built on the same principles as the Sky-Trax Technology and will lend itself well to the program. We are very fortunate to be working with GENCO on this project. They have brought invaluable insight into the practical application and tremendous potential of this new technology.”
CCV technology will bring to light revolutionary capabilities for route optimization, utilizing real time path and routing decisions. The CCV will create a new comprehensive approach to utilizing automated vehicles together with manned vehicles in a safe and effective way.
