ProGlove – The ProGlove Cloud
Thanks to its centrally located lithium-ion battery, this stacker
truck is compact in design and shape while offering plenty of
space for the operator. Easy step-on is also considered through
its 195mm access height. Mentioning height, its new mast
offers lifting up to 6 metres, which can be pre-set. Visibility all
around is good. Its intuitive colour display screens relay info
on the operational assistance systems, while built in warning
alarms alert when overloading or lifting danger. Whether right
handed or left, the tiller’s functions are easy to operate.
Rated as a good new product by the expert grouping, the
ProGlove is a competitive product in the current marketplace.
The ProGlove could provide added potential to create value
for the industrial user. It helps companies and users to map a
digital twin of their processes and thereby better manage their
devices thereby saving time and money. In essence, ProGlove
builds industrial wearables that are the light and small barcode
scanners in the world, connecting the workforce efficiently.

Similar to other solutions currently in the marketplace, but
the difference being that up to now, localisation systems have
often been directly coupled with navigation. The Locator is
primarily a software component for the reliable positioning
and orientation of a wide range of vehicle types like automated
guided vehicles (AGV) and autonomous mobile robots. No
reflectors are required with its system. The Bosch Locator
enables new industrial truck manufacturers to easily enter the
market with this software and allows for multi-connectivity.
Trundling around one of the enclosed areas inside the
Hannover Messe was a TLD autonomous tug tractor using
TractEasy taught-in-route software developed by EasyMile.
This driverless, zero-emission tractor has a towing capacity of
25 tonnes, reaches a top speed of 25km/h and can operate
both indoors and outdoors, and is electrically driven. Using
this software, speeds can also be adjusted accordingly. Safe
and controlled operation provides for increased productivity
and reduced operating costs.
