Automation in industrial settings continues to be a high priority amongst supply chain businesses as underlying drivers—an acute labor shortage, rising costs, flexible manufacturing lines, and the e-commerce boom—are increasing the complexities of remaining competitive. Industrial facilities are also turning to flexible, infrastructure-free automation to ensure goods and material can be moved safely—without compromising productivity.
Logistics, e-commerce, and manufacturing companies seek autonomous robotic platforms that are rapid to deploy and easily adaptable to change. As such, intelligent autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) that can navigate using on-board technology are rapidly replacing manual operations.
