This collaboration leverages EdgeNectar’s patented AI-driven private 5G network technology to enhance Liftians’ AGV systems, setting a new standard for operational efficiency and connectivity in automated logistics and warehousing.
EdgeNectar’s patented AI technology and private 5G solution will significantly enhance the performance of Liftians’ AGVs, offering ultra-low latency, improved data throughput, and increased network reliability. These advancements are set to elevate AGV performance in mission-critical, high-demand environments, surpassing the capabilities of traditional Wi-Fi connectivity currently used as the industry standard. EdgeNectar delivers a simple network management portal for core network, radio network and devices, and, in this case, AGVs.
The integration of AGVs with private 5G networks represents a rapidly growing trend in warehouse automation. According to recent industry reports, the private 5G network market is projected to reach $36.08 billion by 2030, growing at an impressive CAGR of 54.1% from 2024 to 2030 (Grand View Research). This growth is driven by the increasing demand for secure, high-speed, and low-latency communication required by AGVs and other industrial applications.
Jonathan Huang, CEO of Liftians, added, “Partnering with EdgeNectar aligns with our commitment to innovation and excellence in automated logistics solutions. Integrating private 5G connectivity will optimize Liftians’ AGVs’ efficiency and ensure seamless and secure communication across our clients’ facilities.”
Key benefits of this integration include:
-Ultra-Low Latency: Near-instantaneous communication critical for real-time AGV operations in dynamic warehouse environments.
-Enhanced Data Throughput: Higher data transfer rates support advanced analytics and real-time decision-making.
-Increased Security and Reliability: Dedicated, secure connections reduce the risk of interference and cyber threats.
-Cost-Effective: Private 5 G requires fewer radio base stations, reducing the overall cost. In a large warehouse, only two base stations are required for private 5G compared to 50 access points with traditional Wi-Fi. 5G networks reduce long-term operational costs through efficient network management and decreased need for hardware infrastructure, especially for large-scale operations.
