Automated cheese ripening

To meet Pinzgau’s exacting requirements, Egemin will develop an automated guided vehicle system (AGV) based on its proven concept solution for cheese transport and handling.

The AGVs will organise transportation between the four cheese ripening rooms of the warehouse, the processing machines and goods-out. The AGVs will also take care of the storage and retrieval process. Egemin Automation's AGV management software E’tricc will be responsible for the entire cheese management process and monitoring of the maturing process – 365 days a year. The project is scheduled to commence operation in the summer of 2015.
