This case study describes how AER Manufacturing increased productivity in its final assembly and shipping operations by replacing an aging transport system with Dematic Compact Tugger AGVs. As an auto engine manufacturer supplying OEM replacement motors for major brands, AER required a reliable and efficient material handling solution. The previous tugger system had become costly to maintain and required manual vehicle movement, which limited efficiency. By deploying compact tugger AGVs, AER automated internal transport, reduced labor dependency, improved reliability, and lowered maintenance costs. The new system streamlined material flow, supported continuous assembly operations, and delivered measurable gains in manufacturing productivity and operational efficiency.
