The Future of Autonomous and Wireless Charging

The real driver of change has been the need to reduce manual intervention and lower operational costs. When a robot can charge itself safely and autonomously, maintenance downtime drops dramatically, and so does total cost of ownership.

Automation's Future in Sustainable Transportation

From an operational standpoint, the role of robotics and automation in battery swapping is pivotal. Automated guided mechanisms handle each module, reducing labor costs and minimizing human error.

MHP study proves it: Wireless charging increases productivity of AGVs by 50%

The aim of the MHP study was to demonstrate the advantages of process-integrated charging points using inductive point charging systems such as Wiferion over conventional charging zones using a real-life optimization scenario in a medium-sized production company.

Propelling Your Operations Forward with Wireless Charging: Here's What to Know

Your charging strategy is a vital component for simplifying internal material transportation and data transfer. One option in the space gaining popularity and adoption is a wireless charging system, which provides intervention-free charging.

2022 Top Article - Wireless Charging Enables Industry 4.0 Implementation with Mobile Robots

The latest wireless charging solutions use techniques based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When an alternating current is passed through an induction coil on the transmitter side, an oscillating magnetic field is created.

Wireless Charging to Bring 'True Autonomy' to Mobility Era in Robotics

Imagine a factory floor with fast wireless charging pads or stations that doesn't require a human operator to make a physical connection and placed strategically around a facility to enable maximum uptime.
