Transbotics Secures Automatic Trailer Loading System (ATLS) Order Using an Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV) In the Food and Kindred Products Industry

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--May 16, 2006--Transbotics Corporation, (OTCBB: TNSB) (www.transbotics.com), announced it received an order for an Automatic Trailer Loading System (ATLS) from a new customer in the food and kindred products industry. The order, totaling approximately $435,000, is to be installed over approximately eight months and will include a Tailor-Made(TM) laser guided trailer loading vehicle, controls, hardware, and other related equipment, software, and engineering services. In an ATLS, automatic guided vehicles ("AGVs") can now enter an ordinary trailer and automatically load the trailer with pallets picked up directly from the end of the manufacturing line.

"This order is significant because it shows an important advance in automatic guided vehicle system technology and Transbotics' ability to adapt to the changing requirements of our customers," stated Claude Imbleau, President of Transbotics Corporation. "Taking product from the manufacturing lines directly into the trucks for distribution will decrease the costly time, room required and shipping errors for products that must be staged or inventoried before shipment. We believe many industries can benefit from a Tailor-Made(TM) ATLS."
