Warehouse automation has traditionally been a fixed, expensive, rigid solution made to offer maximum velocity. Itis not that this sort of high speed, high volume automationis no longer relevant- it’s likely more relevant today than it has ever been. However, an entire market has emerged to provide a more flexible alternative to traditional automation methods. This market opens up the possibility to leverage flexible automation technology to execute a broader range of warehouse workflows, where traditional automation doesn’t quite fit.
This new market centers around Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), mobile robots that can autonomously navigate throughout a facility, and can be easily scaled up, scaled down, or added to new workflows as operational needs change.
