Overview
The XCMG XVAB35-MS5 is a driverless counterbalance forklift AGV from XCMG’s new-generation intelligent industrial vehicle platform, designed for unmanned material handling in and around plants, workshops, continuous-transfer lines, warehouses and production-line supply. It navigates with 3D laser SLAM fused with inertial navigation — no floor magnets or reflectors — reaching a repeat positioning accuracy of ±10 mm, and picks pallets precisely with a pallet-recognition 3D camera.
A fleet-scheduling system coordinates multiple XVAB vehicles for linked operation, and the safety package (bumper edge contacts, lidar obstacle avoidance and multi-line navigation radar) covers indoor and outdoor duties.

Note: XCMG’s expert-review text and the model designation refer to a 3,500 kg payload, while the published specification table lists rated load as 3,000 kg at a 500 mm load centre; both figures are reproduced here as published and not reconciled. XCMG also lists the optional higher lift configuration (up to 3 m as standard).
Key Features
- High-precision navigation: 3D laser SLAM fused with inertial navigation, ±10 mm repeat positioning accuracy without infrastructure modification.
- Reliable lifting: up to 3.5 t handling capacity and 3 m lift (higher configurations optional) with stable lifting and travel performance.
- Layered safety: anti-collision edge contacts, lidar obstacle avoidance and multi-line navigation radar for a comprehensive protection system.
- Efficient operation: large-capacity lithium battery for long shifts; pallet-recognition 3D camera for precise picking; intelligent scheduling system for multi-vehicle coordinated fleets.
- Compact footprint: 4,843 mm stacking aisle for standard 1,200 × 1,000 pallets and a 2,317 mm turning radius suit existing warehouse layouts.
Applications
Unmatched indoor-outdoor material handling in factory areas and workshops, continuous transfer duty, warehouse logistics and production-line supply — anywhere driverless pallet transport with high positioning accuracy and multi-AGV coordination is required.

Source conflict: XCMG publishes a 3,000 kg rated load at a 500 mm load centre in the specification table, while the model designation and the manufacturer expert-review text refer to a 3,500 kg (3.5 t) payload class. Both figures are reproduced as published and are not reconciled here — treat 3,000 kg as the table value and confirm the payload class for your configuration before ordering.
