Warehouse Material Transport

Revolutionize your logistics with AMRs that smartly and safely move goods around the clock. Automate transport to slash costs, boost throughput, and perfect inventory tracking.

Why Automate Warehouse Material Transport?

Increased Efficiency

No fatigue means non-stop operation, with real-time route adjustments for faster deliveries and more per hour.

Enhanced Safety

LiDAR and vision tech let them dodge people and obstacles, slashing accidents far below manual forklifts.

Labor Optimization

Shift workers from grunt transport to smarter tasks like QC and picking, reducing turnover and burnout.

Accuracy & Traceability

Seamlessly ties into your WMS for full digital tracking—no lost inventory or shipping slip-ups.

Cost Reduction

Cuts costs by eliminating temp labor, minimizing facility damage, and lowering maintenance.

Flexible Scalability

Easily scale your fleet for peaks without retraining or major changes.

Intelligent Navigation & Coordination

SLAM tech is the core—robots digitally map your space for free-roaming navigation, no tape required.

Fleet Management System orchestrates it all, pulling WMS orders, assigning bots, avoiding jams, timing charges, and managing elevators.

At the destination, they connect to conveyors or arms for seamless autonomous pick-up and drop-off.

Where It's Used

E-commerce Fulfillment

Goods-to-person: brings shelves right to pickers, cutting walk time by 70%.

Automotive Manufacturing

Just-in-time parts delivery to production lines, keeping stations stocked but lean.

3PL Logistics

Shuttle pallets from docks to storage to shipping for efficient cross-docking.

Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals

Safe, clean transport of meds, samples, linens in hospitals.

What You Need

Hardware & Infrastructure

Flat, clean flooring (concrete or industrial coating)
High-speed Wi-Fi (WiFi 6 preferred) or Private 5G network
Charging stations (Auto-docking power supply)
Designated staging areas for pickup/drop-off

Software Stack

Fleet Management System (FMS) server
API Integration with WMS/ERP (REST/VDA 5050)
Map editing and route planning interface
Analytics dashboard for performance tracking

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an AGV and an AMR?

AGVs follow fixed guides like tape and stop if blocked. AMRs use sensors and maps for flexible paths around obstacles—no mods needed.

Are these robots safe to work alongside humans?

Yes—PL-d LiDAR, 3D cams, e-stops. They slow or stop safely when people enter the zone.

Do I need to change my warehouse layout?

Usually no. They work in existing spaces if aisles fit the robot plus safety buffer and floors are decent.

How long does the battery last?

8-10 hours typical, with opportunity charging for 24/7 uptime.

What is the maximum payload capacity?

Model-dependent: bins 50-100kg, pallets 1-1.5 tonnes, tow up to 5 tonnes.

Can they integrate with my WMS/ERP?

Yes—APIs or VDA 5050 connect to your WMS for automatic orders.

What happens if the Wi-Fi goes down?

Onboard maps let them finish tasks offline, but they need Wi-Fi for new jobs or traffic updates.

What is the typical ROI timeframe?

12-24 months usual, based on labor and shifts.

Can they operate outdoors?

Indoor standards are for inside only. Outdoor models handle yards with rough terrain and weather.

How are the maps created?

One manual drive-thru by a tech or bot uses LiDAR to scan, refine the map, and store it centrally.
