AMR project cases
Representative projects built from comparable plants, with typical results and time to go-live.
- Process transferAutomated flow between processesA typical PCB or electronics plant replaces manual cart pushing between processes with lifting AMRs that take their tasks straight from the MES. The result is steadier WIP flow, fewer people tied up in handling and round-the-clock operation.
- Handling labor
- −65%
- Operation
- 24 h
- To go-live
- 9 wks
- Roll handlingStraight from storage to line-sideA typical plant handling battery electrode rolls, film or tire materials uses AMRs with a roller top module to carry rolls from storage and dock directly with line-side conveyors. Rolls transfer between robot and conveyor with no manual loading.
- Manual loading
- 0
- Docking accuracy
- ±10 mm
- To go-live
- 10 wks
- Finished goods in/outFinished pallets in and out of storageA typical tire plant or warehouse uses autonomous forklifts, driven by tasks from the WMS, to move finished pallets from the end of the line into storage and out to shipping. Half the manual forklift fleet is freed up while the operation runs three shifts non-stop.
