Workflow
| STEP 1. | A worker positions himself between the racks in the warehouse |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | AMR loads the cart |
| STEP 3. | AMR passes the rack and stops at a designated location |
| STEP 4. | The worker loads items onto the cart |
| STEP 5. | When the cart is full, the AMR unloads the cart at a designated location. |
Features
- Connect to the entire conveyor line for high-capacity processing.
- The intuitive UX/UI of the OP panel allows for flexible support of various pallet/bag sizes.
- Using a product sorting device, a vision-free, low-cost solution is implemented.
Results
| Key Benefits | More than doubling the maximum daily order picking capacity per worker, expanding the use of robots in logistics warehouses, and reducing worker musculoskeletal disorders and turnover rates. |
|---|---|
| Client Feedback | The introduction of robots reduced workloads, leading to increased employee retention and a more flexible response to sudden increases in cargo volume. Notably, lower body fatigue was significantly reduced by eliminating the need to carry picked items. The logistics robot system, integrated with the upper-level WMS system, reduced human error and boosted customer satisfaction. |

Automated automotive battery palletizing: Safely stack batteries weighing over 60kg with the YASKAWA GP225 💪
This solution automates the repalletizing process for Atlas batteries produced by Hankook & Company for export. Due to the diverse import pallet specifications, customer-specific palletizing patterns, and product types, the total number of possible scenarios exceeds 200. The goal is to standardize these scenarios and ensure line stability by supporting a throughput of 10 pallets per minute for medium-sized batteries and 6 pallets per minute for large-sized batteries. [Pallet Feeder & Pallet Conveyor] This solution allows for the use of up to five different pallet types per country, ensuring a smooth 10-stack logistics cycle. Destacked pallets are transported to the battery palletizing position and aligned simultaneously. Completed pallets are transported to the discharge position. [Battery Sorter] Batteries fed inline are automatically sorted into 1st, 2nd (series/parallel), and 3rd layers according to the preset palletizing pattern. The robot then discharges the batteries, repeating the initialization process. [Robot Palletizer] Once aligned, the batteries are picked and placed at the palletizing position on the conveyor, repeating the pick-and-place process according to the specified location and number of layers. Honeycomb feeds are automatically inserted into each layer according to the settings. [Honeycomb Feeder & Sorter] Automatically sorts and inserts honeycombs into each layer of NO-BOX batteries.
Heavy logistics automation success! Omron AMR automatically returns lead tabs 📦🤖
Process Overview This case study demonstrates the automation of heavy-duty product transport using Omron AMR logistics robots . The client implemented a logistics automation system to reduce inefficiencies and labor burdens associated with repetitive, heavy logistics tasks. Specifically, they sought to reduce costs and maximize logistics efficiency through automated palletizing and return operations. This solution automates simple, repetitive tasks like product movement and loading, thereby increasing the efficiency and accuracy of the shipping process and reducing worker burden, thereby enhancing safety and productivity. Project Background and Objectives The client recognized the need for automation in heavy cart transport and lead tab return operations and sought to improve logistics operational efficiency and reduce operating costs by introducing AMRs. This project aimed to: Automating lead tab return and cart transport Improving worker productivity and ensuring safety Enhancing efficiency and flexibility in the logistics field
