Logistics applications
NX NextMotion is the central solution for modern logistics fleets. As an add-on system, it optimizes both retrofitted vehicles and new ones, enabling semi-autonomous, fully autonomous, and remote applications – independent of the vehicle platform.
Through comprehensive process automation, NX NextMotion increases efficiency and availability, counters the shortage of skilled labor, and boosts safety and cost efficiency in logistics.
Autonomous Driving in Port Logistics – Smart Heavy-Duty Tractors
Innovative drive-by-wire technologies revolutionize terminal tractors in port logistics. With a multi-redundant system, existing vehicle platforms can be retrofitted and adapted to the highest safety standards for autonomous applications.
The system takes over central vehicle functions like longitudinal and lateral acceleration, ignition, gear selection, and indicators through secure digital interfaces. Terminal tractors with autonomous driving capabilities meet stringent safety requirements for port operations and can optionally be road-certified.
The plug-and-play solution allows flexible integration into both new vehicles and existing fleets, advancing process automation in port logistics – for greater efficiency, safety, and a sustainable future in heavy-duty applications.
NX NextMotion: The Future of Logistics – Smarter, Safer, More Efficient
Flexible and Seamlessly Integrable
NX NextMotion makes logistics smarter – without the need for extensive new purchases. By enabling retrofitting of existing fleets and direct integration into new vehicles, the system adapts to the needs of modern logistics companies. This approach allows businesses to gradually adopt advanced technologies while avoiding high upfront costs.
Automation at the Highest Level
Whether semi-autonomous or fully autonomous, NX NextMotion offers maximum adaptability. Vehicles can operate in assisted modes, fully autonomously, or a combination of both. This makes the degree of automation flexibly scalable – ideal for evolving logistics demands.
Remote Applications for Challenging Operations
With remote and teleoperation capabilities, NX NextMotion opens new possibilities for vehicle control. In inaccessible or hazardous areas, the technology enables remote operation, significantly increasing safety and efficiency. The ability to switch between autonomous and remote modes provides additional flexibility for specific scenarios.
Maximum Efficiency and Resource Utilization
Optimized driving strategies, precise control, and seamless monitoring ensure ideal resource utilization. Fuel consumption and maintenance costs decrease, transportation runs more smoothly, and integrated system monitoring provides real-time vehicle status information to proactively manage processes and prevent disruptions.
Safety Through Innovation
Advanced sensors and real-time data processing set new standards in logistics safety. Potential risks are identified early, accidents are avoided, and infrastructure is protected – ensuring smooth operations with maximum safety.
Relief Through Intelligent Task Allocation
NX NextMotion alleviates staff workload by handling monotonous or high-risk tasks, enabling teams to focus on more complex, value-adding activities. This improves working conditions and strengthens employee retention – a clear advantage in times of labor shortages.
Fully Connected Processes
From loading to delivery, NX NextMotion optimizes the entire process chain. The seamless networking of all logistical steps minimizes downtime and maximizes fleet availability – exactly what logistics companies need during peak demand.
