GREENE, N.Y. — The Raymond Corporation, a Chenango County–based manufacturer of forklift trucks and other material-handling products, has recently introduced a new automated tow tractor.

The Raymond Courier 3220 Automated Tow Tractor uses vision-guided technology and can tow up to 15,000 pounds. The new tow tractor is the latest addition to Raymond’s line of automated guided vehicles (AGVs), the company announced on Jan. 19.

“The addition of the Raymond Courier 3220 to our line of AGVs showcases our drive for continuous improvement. This model offers higher towing capacity and more ramp capability, resulting in an ability to handle peak loading needs,” Tiger Xu, product manager of automated products at Raymond, said in a company release. “Raymond Courier automated guided vehicles leverage vision technology for navigation.”

The company has a fleet of three additional Courier AGVs besides the new tow tractor.

Raymond is a unit of Toyota Industries Corp. Its plant is located at 22 S. Canal St. in the town of Greene.
