Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) used in order processing significantly enhances production efficiency. With multi-order picking capabilities, AMR can control picking robots carrying shelves with multiple SKUs to workstations for workers to pick orders. This way, a single pick can fulfill the requirements of multiple orders, saving workers time from searching for ordered items on scattered shelves in the warehouse. Therefore, workers can focus on order picking, leading to an increase in picking efficiency of up to 300%.
By introducing Autonomous Mobile Robots from one of the leading AMR robot companies in China, workers can concentrate all their working hours on order picking. As order picking becomes more efficient, fewer workers can achieve the same or higher picking productivity as manual operations, thus reducing labor costs.
By implementing AMR in manufacturing, the amr warehouse automation can be realized. Warehouses can ensure continuous operation and alleviate common single point of failure issues in operations relying on fixed infrastructure, such as conveyor belt failure causing the entire operation to halt. If an AMR malfunctions, it can be easily repaired and replaced without affecting operations.
The number of AMR units and daily hours of operation can be easily adjusted to meet changing demands, even during unexpected peaks or off-peak periods. Companies can now avoid difficulties in finding labor during various peak situations and the challenges associated with hiring and training new employees. With real-time monitoring and inventory control, AMR scheduling can be dynamically adjusted based on evolving demands.
This also allows companies to scale up their operations at different stages. For example, by deploying automation in one part of the warehouse and automating other sections in the future by adding more robots to meet growing needs.
AMR can be flexibly implemented without the cost of fixed infrastructure. Its mobility, autonomy, and size make it easy to integrate into existing warehouses. The required infrastructure consists of just five simple components: robot, workstation, WiFi, shelves, and QR codes. Hence, AMR can be easily installed and put into operation within 1-3 months.
Errors may have multiple explanations; however, as the demand for faster and more accurate service increases, avoiding errors becomes increasingly important. By deploying AMR, errors associated with manual operations, such as the pressure during peak periods, new employees, and complex logistics scenarios like reverse logistics, can be avoided.
AMR is designed to dynamically collaborate with the surrounding environment and has high responsiveness. By using built-in sensors, laser scanners, and intelligent algorithms, it can detect workers or obstacles and adjust paths. This creates a safe and collaborative environment between AMR and warehouse workers.
The deployment of Iplusmobot AMR automated mobile robot is not just about replacing manual work. Workers remain the most important element in operations. They will acquire more skills to control systems and collaborate with AMR. Therefore, deploying AMR creates an ergonomic workflow for workers, increasing their value to the business.
Imagine if your warehouse needs to relocate due to cost or business changes, relocating fixed infrastructure can be a daunting task, possibly requiring significant additional costs. Unlike fixed infrastructure, AMR is easy to relocate, enabling a quick transition period.
