Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) Solutions
Achieve maximum efficiency with robotics
From factory floors to retail stores, autonomous mobile robots are revolutionizing processes and workflows, leading to increased productivity and lower operating costs. Learn more about Panasonic's components and devices for robotics applications.
The ability of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to operate in many complex and flexible environments from logistics and manufacturing, to healthcare, hospitality, and residential applications, relies on the unique technologies and solutions used in their design. Panasonic components and devices are ideal for many of the demanding operating conditions and functions of AMRs and AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles). Panasonic's solutions include Sensors, Batteries, and a wide range of Electronic Components that deliver high reliability and precision for specific robotic tasks. Whether designing for logistics, medical, delivery or hospitality, Panasonic has solutions to meet AMR and AGV application requirements.
Applications
Factory automation
Autonomous mobile robots are helping to revolutionize the factory floor, replacing forklifts, managing internal plant deliveries, and even cleaning floors. Unlike traditional automation solutions, AMRs are capable of adapting to complex manufacturing environment, as they are equipped with cameras and sensors that allow them to safely maneuver around obstacles – including human coworkers – without any need to upgrade or alter the facility.
Fulfilment centers
Autonomous mobile robots are transforming warehouses, lowering labor costs and increasing productivity. Using a combination of artificial intelligence, machine learning, cutting-edge components and the right software, AMRs in a fulfilment center can be used for order picking, transporting goods internally, interacting with conveyors and other material handling tasks.
Store inventory
Inventory management is key for retailers, as stores need high accuracy and manual stock counts are fairly labor-intensive. As a result, many large retailers are investing in autonomous mobile robots for inventory scanning and replenishment tasks in their stores. Using a combination of computer vision technology, artificial intelligence and sensors, drones are able to perform inventory management tasks faster and more accurately than human workers.
Last-mile delivery
Last-mile delivery is a major challenge for businesses due to high costs and inefficiencies. Add to that the increased demand for contactless delivery options as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, and it's clear why many companies are seeking to bring autonomy into the last mile. From groceries to package delivery, autonomous mobile robots can help businesses reduce costs while providing outstanding customer service.
