The floor bridge installation work involves leveling the unevenness and chipping around the joints and seams in the concrete floors of logistics warehouses and factories, improving the floor surface to facilitate the passage of forklifts, carts, AGVs, and AMRs. Even small issues like corner chipping of joints, sinking at joint areas, and level differences at construction joints can lead to impacts, vibrations, noise, load shifts, and operational losses during transit. At Floor Agent, we not only fill in the chipped areas but also assess the direction from which vehicles will pass over the joints, where the loads will be applied, the frequency of travel, and the deterioration of the surrounding floor. Based on this assessment, we install floor bridges in the necessary areas to create a smooth connection between the front and back floors, aiming for a floor environment that minimizes snagging for transport equipment. If the same joints continue to deteriorate despite repeated repairs, it is important to consider solutions for the entire travel line rather than just the damaged areas. As a flooring specialist company that handles ground work, polishing, floor repairs, and unevenness surveys, we propose measures to address height differences with a long-term usage perspective in mind. On-site, we also check the number of installation points, the condition of the substrate, and the operational status of the facility, allowing us to accommodate construction plans during nighttime or holidays. If you are facing issues with joint height differences, please feel free to visit the Floor Agent website first.

Reach forklifts are vehicles suitable for loading and unloading in narrow aisles and for accessing high racks, but due to their small tire diameter, they are prone to being affected by floor joints and uneven surfaces. In logistics warehouses and factories, repeatedly passing over chipped corners around joints, height differences at joint sections, and level differences at connection points can concentrate impact on the tires, leading to wear, chipping, increased stress on bearings, vibrations during operation, and potential vehicle failures. During the installation work of floor bridges by Floor Agent, we check the travel lines of the reach forklifts and connect necessary joints and seams to create a flat surface. By suppressing the impact of small-diameter tires dropping into gaps, we aim to reduce tire wear, lessen vehicle maintenance burdens, and achieve stable operation. Simple repairs that only fill in chips may lead to re-chipping in the same areas and may still leave burdens on the vehicle. Our company, as a flooring specialist that handles concrete work, grinding, floor repairs, and unevenness surveys, proposes floor improvements from both warehouse operation and vehicle maintenance perspectives. This is also effective for sites concerned about increasing inspection and repair costs. If you are experiencing tire wear or failures with your reach forklift, please visit the Floor Agent website.

To enhance the ROI of AGVs, it is important to not only consider the number of vehicles and control systems but also to improve the floor conditions along the travel path. In logistics warehouses and factories, uneven joints, chipped corners, and level differences at connection points can lead to AGV stops, slowdowns, travel deviations, sensor errors, and swaying of transported goods. An increase in such floor-related troubles can result in recovery responses, waiting times, and a decrease in transport capacity, preventing the investment in AGVs from yielding its intended benefits. In the installation work of floor bridges by Floor Agents, we confirm the AGV's planned route, entry angle, travel frequency, load capacity, and relationship with charging areas and entrances, and smoothly connect the necessary joints. By reducing the impact received from the floor, we decrease the number of stops and the burden on the cargo, supporting stable operation and improved transport efficiency. This is effective not only for addressing issues after implementation but also for checking the floor before AGV introduction. By identifying floor issues in the initial stages, it becomes easier to minimize rework for additional responses. Our company is capable of polishing, floor repairs, and concrete work, allowing us to propose improvements based on the overall condition of the floor.

To improve material handling efficiency, it is important not only to enhance transportation equipment and work procedures but also to level the floor joints and joint height differences. In logistics warehouses and factories, forklifts, AGVs, AMRs, carts, and hand trucks repeatedly travel the same routes. If there are chipped corners around the joints or level differences at the joint areas, it can lead to deceleration, cargo swaying, transport stoppages, wheel wear, and operational losses due to the impact during passage. In the floor bridge installation work by Floor Agent, we check the lines that material handling equipment will pass through and smoothly connect the necessary joints and joint areas. By reducing obstacles on the floor, we can maintain transport speed, reduce the risk of cargo collapse, implement measures against AGV stoppages, and alleviate the burden on workers. In existing warehouses, it may be difficult to stop operations, so partial construction focusing on specific areas or consideration of night and holiday work is also possible. As a flooring specialist company that handles everything from floor construction, polishing, and repairs to unevenness surveys, we propose floor improvements that are not just simple repairs but are aimed at enhancing productivity in logistics sites. If you are experiencing challenges with material handling efficiency, please visit the Floor Agent website.

Load collapse during forklift operation can be caused not only by driving operations and loading methods but also by the joints and level differences in the warehouse floor. In logistics warehouses and factories, every time the vehicle passes over corner chipping around joints, level differences at joint areas, and variations in the connection points, shocks are transmitted to the vehicle and the cargo. When these shocks accumulate, it can lead to cargo shifting on pallets, increased risk of collapse, and necessitating a reduction in travel speed, all of which affect work efficiency and safety. During the installation work of floor bridges by Floor Agent, we check areas where load collapse is likely to occur, such as travel lines, entrances, unloading areas, near docks, and entrances/exits of storage areas, and smoothly connect the joints and level differences. By suppressing the impact transmitted from the floor, we reduce the burden on the cargo and support stable transportation. If you are experiencing issues with load collapse, deceleration, vibrations, or damage around joints, please visit the Floor Agent website.

To enhance the productivity of AGVs, it is important not only to set up the conveying equipment but also to prepare the joints and joint level differences on the running line in advance. In warehouse floors, chipping around joints, level differences at joint areas, and step differences at connection points can lead to AGV stops, running misalignments, sensor errors, and cargo swaying. Even step differences that a person can pass over can cause disruptions in the conveying rhythm and increased waiting times for automated conveying equipment. During the installation of floor bridges by Floor Agents, we check the planned routes for AGVs, running frequency, load capacity, and the relationship with charging areas and entrances, and we prepare the necessary joints and joint areas. By treating step differences as a running line rather than just points, and smoothly connecting the floors before and after, we aim to minimize stops, deceleration, conveying errors, and impacts on cargo. By checking the floor before installation rather than adjusting only on the equipment side after issues arise, it becomes easier to advance the plans for automation in the warehouse. Our company also handles polishing, floor repairs, and concrete work, allowing for consistent consultation from floor checks before AGV installation to step difference countermeasures. If you are having trouble with joint and step differences in warehouse floors, please visit the Floor Agents website.

To enhance the productivity of forklift operations, it is important to not only focus on the vehicles themselves but also to address the joints and level differences in the flooring that are passed over daily. In logistics warehouses and factories, every time a vehicle passes over chipped corners around joints or level differences at joint areas, shocks are transmitted to the vehicle body, leading to deceleration, noise, cargo shifting, and wear on tires and bearings. In areas with high traffic such as loading docks, entrances, near berths, and access points to storage areas, even slight level differences can accumulate significant operational losses. In the installation work of floor bridges by Floor Agent, connecting the flooring smoothly before and after the joint areas helps to reduce the impact of jolts during passage, contributing to the maintenance of travel speed and stability during transport. Simply filling with mortar in the short term may result in the same areas becoming damaged again. Our company is capable of addressing the entire travel line's level difference issues, as we handle ground work, polishing, floor repairs, and unevenness surveys. If you are experiencing issues with forklift swaying, deceleration, or damage around joints, please feel free to visit the Floor Agent website.

The FloorBridge method is a new solution that suppresses the unevenness, chipping, and wobbling of joints that occur in concrete floors of logistics warehouses and factories. In environments where AGVs, AMRs, and forklifts repeatedly travel the same route, even slight unevenness can lead to vibrations, noise, cargo shifting, strain on wheels and bearings, and discomfort for operators. As the exclusive contractor for FloorBridge in Japan, Floor Agent handles everything from joint repairs on existing floors to initial design for new concrete floors. FloorBridge is made of carbon composite, which does not use metal, making it resistant to rust, and it can be polished after installation to match the height of the existing floor. Additionally, its sign curve shape disperses impact during vehicle passage, supporting smooth and low-vibration travel. On-site, we assess the condition of the floor, joint width, type of vehicles, frequency of travel, and desired flatness, planning a series of construction processes from cutting and installation to adhesion and polishing. As a company that handles ground work, plastering, polishing, and unevenness surveys, we can provide proposals that take into account the overall operational challenges of the floor.
