AGV deployment in Whirlpool Company Polska Sp. z o.o.

Whirlpool Company Polska deployed AGV vehicles to organize material flow between production and warehouse areas in one of the most modern appliance plants in the region. The aim was to support efficiency, safety and long-term readiness for wider automation.

Challenge

The plant needed a transport model that could operate in a dynamic environment with intensive pedestrian traffic and clearly defined production needs. The target process included horizontal transport of pallets and pallet boxes.

Solution

The project matched AGV work with the selected transport routes, operator interaction points and warehouse organization rules. The rollout also included testing, staff training and a pilot stage used to confirm safe daily operation.

Outcome

Whirlpool improved transport efficiency, reduced accidental damage of moved components and created better process discipline around automated logistics. The project became an important step towards further plant optimization.
