Wire Guidance

The intelliguide system has a wire buried in the floor 1/2" 5/8" deep in the center of each storage aisle that transmits an electrical signal which is received by a sensor on the truck. A line driver energizes the wire at 5.2 or 6.25 KHz. The sensors on the truck acknowledge the signal from the wire and control the steering mechanism to enable the truck to follow the wire automatically. The wire guidance system is integrated with the truck's braking system so that if the signal is lost the truck will automatically slow down and stop.
