AUTONOMOUS AND GUIDED VEHICLES--SIMILARITIES, DIFFERENCES, AND LIMITS

SPURFREIE UND SPURGEFUEHRTE FAHRZEUGE--GLEICHHEIT, VERSCHIEDENHEIT, GRENZEN

With few exceptions, the technique of vehicles tied to the ground is subject to similar laws, and this applies, more especially, to autonomous and guided vehicles. The replacement of the wheel, as a support, by means of a suspended system, neither reduces the expenditure on performance and power, nor is there any considerable alternation to the interplay of forces between the vehicle and the track. The speed limit depends essentially on economic factors. The suspension technique depends, for propulsion, on the linear motor, although, on the other hand, the wheel can be retained, in this connection, as a means of support and guidance.
