Seegrid Corporation, the leader in autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for material handling, announced the availability of the Seegrid Palion Tow Tractor Series 8. This upgraded version of the company’s industry-leading automated tow tractor features enhanced Smart Path technology, increasing the robotic fleet’s ability to comprehend and make decisions while safely and reliably moving material in dynamic, high-traffic facilities.
Advances in Seegrid’s artificial intelligence allow Palion AMRs to see, understand, and learn using the company’s proprietary vision system. The robotic fleet has been performing and reporting on tasks safely and productively for more than 5 million autonomous miles for leading brands in manufacturing, e-commerce, and logistics sectors.
The release of the new Palion Tow Tractor builds on Seegrid’s track record of delivering proven mobile automation technology that boosts both productivity and safety, and is the latest in Seegrid’s expanding product portfolio and capabilities. This year, Seegrid upgraded its Palion Pallet Truck, and premiered its first autonomous lift truck, Palion Lift AMR. The news follows the recent formation of the company’s research and development group, Blue Labs, an in-house innovation acceleration team fully dedicated to identifying new technologies to further Seegrid’s strong technical advantage.
"Seegrid’s intelligent automation solutions serve the largest global manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, and e-commerce companies,” said Rock. “As supply chain pressures persist, our customers look to us to provide safe, smart, and effective solutions for their facilities—that are busy, high-traffic, and ever-changing. It’s our mission to help them realize these automation goals with robust mobile automation solutions."
Seegrid’s Smart Path algorithm leverages the company’s advanced computer vision technology and sensor fusion models, providing Palion AMRs with the unmatched ability to understand and learn, as well as perform and report on tasks safely and productively.
