The Autopilots in action
The Autopilot is designed to automate repetitive pallet handling. It is based on the industry-proven Toyota warehouse truck range which makes it easy to automate existing manual processes
Safe and accurate pallet handling
Autopilots are programmed to complete all tasks safely, and to work alongside manual operators. The built-in safety scanners and obstacle detection units prevent collisions by reacting accordingly to obstacles crossing the trucks’ path. Load sensors and vision cameras further ensure accurate and safe load handling.
Side scanners for safe curves at optimum speed
Front and rear scanners for safe transportation at rated speed
Blue LED light warning pedestrians and drivers when coming out of hidden areas
Front obstacle detection for obstacles above floor level
Side obstacle detection for obstacles entering the travel path from the side
Top obstacle detection for obstacles from above
Explore the safety features of our AGVs in an interactive way
Our automated guided warehouse trucks operate driverless. By adding them to your manual fleet, you can reduce number of high shocks with 25%. Do you know how the safety in the workplace is ensured? Discover all the safety elements on our automated reach truck that help it to navigate, place goods and operate safely around workers.
Precise navigation
Autopilot trucks from Toyota support two highly accurate and adaptive navigation technologies: reflector or natural navigation, or combined as dual navigation. The latter allows the trucks to switch between using reflectors for one area and using the warehouse environment as reference for another area of the layout.
Reflector navigation
A navigation method in which consistent and high-contrast targets, reflectors, are added to the environment. The reflectors installed in the warehouse allow the scanner on the automated truck to define its position based on its distance to the reflectors. The characteristics of this technique guarantee robustness, high accuracy and long reach in most environments.
Natural navigation
A method for automated trucks to navigate with the help of the environment. This navigation method utilises recognisable reference points or landmarks within the warehouse, such as walls, racking and fixed objects, to calculate the truck’s location. Natural navigation is a lower-cost alternative for warehouses where the surroundings remain fairly constant. The truck can utilise the existing environment to navigate without the need for extra equipment such as reflectors, avoiding extra cost and installation of additional equipment.
Intelligent communication
All Autopilot trucks are controlled by T-ONE automation software designed in-house by Toyota. This software works as a standalone or as a communication layer with warehouse management and production systems. T-ONE keeps track of goods storage, orders, traffic and flow thanks to its intelligent fleet control and the integration with ERP/WMS.
Smart charging
The Autopilots can be equipped with Lithium-ion batteries that are up to 30% more energy-efficient whilst reducing CO2 emissions. With the ability of auto-charging, the trucks can charge quickly in between tasks without the need of personnel or charging rooms, making it fully automated.
Return on investment
Automation optimises the flow of goods while minimising damage, time and cost. Workers become available to handle more complex tasks instead of repetitive processes. Automated pallet handling also requires less maintenance and energy, and contributes to productivity and safety, achieving a return on investment within typically 2 years.

TORO’s goods are safely moved by driverless trucks from Toyota
TORO implemented 5 automated trucks from Toyota to work faster and more cost-efficiently. The vehicles operate side by side with manual trucks and/or operators, making safety also a priority.
Toyota AGVs support kitchen manufacturer Kvik’s growth
Kvik has streamlined its internal transport with two automated stackers from Toyota Material Handling.
A large fleet of Toyota AGV's at Albert Heijn's distribution centre
"Albert Heijn chose automated guided vehicles to transport pallets throughout the distribution centre. The more AGVs in operation, the more stores could be supplied. For the best solution, the company turned to Toyota Material Handling, with whom they already have a long-term relationship."
