Welcome to our webinar on safety considerations for tugger
mobile robots, hosted by the AGV Network
Academy.
This session is particularly relevant as tugger mobile robots
represent one of the most complex and risk-intensive types
of autonomous vehicles in industrial and environments.

Tugger mobile robots are unique in their operation, often used
for transporting heavy loads across various facilities.
These robots present specific safety challenges
due to their size, weight, and operational dynamics.
They are not just responsible for their own safe navigation but
also for the safety of the towed loads, which can significantly
alter their behavior and interaction with the environment.
In this webinar, we will delve into the specific requirements
necessary for the safe operation of these
vehicles.
We'll explore the main risks associated with tugger mobile
robots and discuss potential risk reduction measures that can be
implemented.
Our approach is comprehensive, encompassing concepts applied in
our course
"AGV & AMR SAFETY Course:
From Design to Deployment."
Key topics will include:
- Risk assessment: Understanding the potential
hazards associated with tugger mobile robots and evaluating their
impact.
- Risk reduction: Strategies and measures to
mitigate identified risks, ensuring safety in operation.
- Standards in the mobile robot business: An
overview of the relevant safety standards and regulations governing
the use of these vehicles.
- Operating hazard zones: Identifying and
managing areas where the risk of accidents or incidents is
higher.
This webinar is designed to provide a thorough understanding of
the safety aspects of tugger mobile robots, from design to
deployment, ensuring that participants are well-equipped with the
knowledge to handle these sophisticated autonomous vehicles safely
and efficiently.
