ROUTE PLANNING AND AMR FLEET MANAGEMENT
In the rapidly developing Industrie 4.0, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are a crucial success factor. Fleet management plays a key role in achieving the goal of fully automating production in the AMR sector. It ensures smooth and, above all, efficient processes, 24/7 productivity and a high degree of flexibility. But what exactly is fleet management and why is it essential for automation using AMR?
Fleet management is responsible for controlling, planning and monitoring an AMR fleet within a company. The fleet management system used buy us enables us to deliver the complete package. With this fleet management system, the simulation of future routes can be implemented right at the start of the project. In the process itself, fleet management controls and optimizes the motion tasks, route planning and charging management of the individual vehicles in a cost- and time-efficient manner. In addition, we integrate fleet management into existing IT infrastructures and your ERP/MES system to enable a fully automated logistics process.
Fleet management for our AMR Miles series offers you a comprehensive solution that is adapted to the challenges of modern intralogistics and production. The use of fleet management offers you improved efficiency, easy implementation and smooth extensions to your system, which reduces your overall operating costs and increases productivity at the same time.
YOUR ADVANTAGES WITH FLEET MANAGEMENT
- Order transmission via connection to ERP/MES or manually possible
- Efficient order distribution; prioritized or urgent orders can be given preferential treatment
- Charging and battery management, own influencing factors can be taken into account
- Communication with gates, elevators or fire alarm systems
- Simple control of different halls or levels
- Autonomous free driving and driving around obstacles can be switched on/off or only enabled in special areas
- Integration of vehicles from different manufacturers – VDA 5050-compatible
Our approach to implementation
Analysis and concept development: We analyze your specific requirements and develop the ideal automation concept. The layout of the system is created based on the system layout to minimize the need for adjustments and ensure optimum integration.
Real-time simulation and configuration: A simulation of the system is carried out in real time to identify potential challenges at an early stage. All important parameters are taken into account and adjusted.
Integration into existing systems: Our solutions can be seamlessly integrated into your existing ERP system and control technology (MES) to enable efficient control and monitoring.
