…with easier-to-use systems and close collaboration with prospective customers. Hyster-Yale Materials Handling Inc. provides manual and automated lift trucks plus accessories through its subsidiaries, Hyster Co. and Yale Lift Truck Technologies. Yale said at ProMat 2023 that it expects autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to be as much as 50% of its business in the next few years. To get to that point, Hyster and Yale are explaining how AMRs and semi-autonomous lift trucks can provide real returns on investment (ROI). Robotics 24/7 asked the companies about their perspectives, and Kyle Smart, sales manager for robotics at Yale Lift Truck Technologies,…

…vertically, says Kevin Paramore, emerging technology commercialization manager for Yale Materials Handling, a lift truck provider. “The technology’s value comes in providing for very consistent, repeatable processes while reducing labor requirements,” Paramore says. Paramore advises that autonomous lift trucks, tow tractors and other robotic vehicles typically don’t operate as fast or aggressively as a human operated equivalent does, which is why Yale figures it takes about 1.3 robotic lift trucks to replace the workload of one human-operated vehicle. However, with many DCs running multiple shifts, while struggling to find enough operators, robotic trucks can bring payback in as little as…
