As an automotive parts manufacturer, production line uptime was the company's number one key performance indicator. They were already leveraging a fleet of 22 autonomous tuggers to ensure the production line would have what it needed at all times, but charging them was a challenge. The tuggers couldn’t be fully charged during the one break and short shift change available for charging and because of their high workload, employees often forgot to plug them in. The combination of these issues led the company to reach out to Resonant Link to ask about in-process charging. They wanted a way to charge the tuggers while they moved supplies back and forth to the production line and soon discovered that Resonant Link's automated wireless charging could do that and more.
