MHM Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are a flexible, adaptable solution for automating intralogistics operations.

AMRs can safely work around people and obstacles, using dynamic digital maps and onboard camera and laser-based navigation systems. They can be quickly configured and mapped for fast implementation and are easily reprogrammed when operational needs change.

A fleet of AMRs employed at a single facility can communicate with each other to optimise traffic flow, improve operational efficiency and avoid collisions with each other. They can also integrate with production PLC systems, to provide a real-world IoT solution to a plant’s automation.

AMRs are a proven technology with an attractive return on investment (ROI).

Applications

• Movement of product on pallets or in crates
• Within a warehouse or production facility
• Suitable for congested working environments

Benefits of AMRs over Pallet Conveyors

• Greater flexibility of layout design
• Can better accommodate small footprint operations or awkward factory layouts
• Easily expanded to meet future needs
• Faster, lower cost installation and commissioning
• Less moving parts, resulting in lower maintenance costs
• Spare units can be supplied to ensure uninterrupted service

Benefits of AMRs over AGVs

• Safely works around people and obstacles
• Lower set up cost and fast implementation
• Co-ordination and flow – a fleet of AMRs at a single facility can co-ordinate with each other to maximise efficiency and traffic flow
• Trackless navigation, depots not required
• Can deliver to user locations
• Flexible and adaptable – easy to re-map on site or remotely when products, layouts or delivery routes change
• Easily expandable to accommodate growing production or distribution requirements
