Savant Automation

Savant Automation designs, manufactures, and services automated guided vehicle systems (AGVs) for industrial, commercial, and healthcare applications. The company’s offerings include tunnel-under cart movers, towing vehicles, powered roller deck AGVs, and lift/lower platforms, all based on a universal chassis architecture. A proprietary iQ-CAN control platform and inertial Virtual Path navigation system allow users to visually design, simulate, and deploy AGV paths directly from CAD models, without writing software. This approach accelerates deployment, simplifies changes, and enables real-time reconfiguration to meet evolving facility needs.

Savant’s business model is built around end-to-end ownership: the company engineers its own hardware, develops proprietary software, manufactures vehicles in-house, and handles all installation and ongoing service. This integrated model reduces complexity, enhances system longevity, and ensures responsive support throughout the life of the solution. AGV systems can be implemented as one-time capital purchases or deployed under hardware-as-a-service (HaaS) arrangements that enable a lower upfront investment and more flexible scale-up over time. Customers benefit from preventative maintenance programs, remote diagnostics, system expansion services, and on-site training, making Savant a long-term automation partner rather than a point-solution vendor.
