Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are advanced robotic systems designed to move materials within various environments, such as warehouses, manufacturing facilities and distribution centers, with little or without the need for human intervention.
AMRs are a key component of modern automation solutions, aimed at optimizing the flow of goods and materials within industrial and commercial environments.
Robotics Automation helps manufacturing and warehouse facilities boost efficiency when it comes to material movement and fulfillment operations by automating and orchestrating workflows. Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) can integrate into, or replace, fixed automation systems or the manual movement between workstations — optimizing floor space and offering flexibility to better utilize labor resources.
AMRs can help power productivity by freeing up your workforce and workspace through flexible, easily deployed intelligent solutions for mission-critical tasks. For example, in a busy warehouse, AMRs can autonomously transport inventory from storage to shipping areas, allowing human workers to focus on more complex tasks like quality control and customer service.
When properly implemented, Robotics Automation AMRs can replace manual material movement, which allows staff to focus on more complex and value-added tasks. This shift helps increase productivity, efficiency and throughput — negating many shortages and meeting higher customer demand.
In fulfillment operations, a cloud-based software designed to manage and optimize autonomous mobile robots can be a powerful tool for businesses looking to leverage robotics automation to enhance their operations and improve automation workflows. By having comprehensive control and insights into AMR operations, it can help improve overall efficiency, reduce downtime and increase productivity. Zebra Symmetry Fulfillment offers a comprehensive solution to increase worker productivity and reduce cost per unit. By ensuring efficient movement of both workers and robots by orchestrating the path of a picker with a team of robots for a directed workflow, throughput throughout the picking operation is maximized.
Robotics Automation AMRs are often used to replace traditional fixed conveyor systems, eliminating linear bottlenecks and freeing up valuable floor space for additional workstations, inventory or storage. This allows for better use of a facility’s footprint and potential expansion within an existing facility.
By automating the movement of materials and reducing the need for manual handling, Robotics Automation AMRs can help increase productivity and throughput. Additionally, through optimized workforce utilization and reduced downtime, they can lead to significant overall cost savings.
Although many variables can impact your payback time, you might be able to achieve return on investment (ROI) faster than you think. One example we recently calculated could pay for itself in less than two months.
They frequently do. In fact, many workers welcome the introduction of AMRs to handle the walking of materials to the next workstation. This allows those workers to shift their focus toward the higher-value activities that drive productivity and job satisfaction.
AMRs can easily adapt to changing environments, scale with operational needs and replace traditional fixed conveyance systems. Their flexibility frees up floor space and eliminates costly linear bottlenecks.
Long-term benefits of incorporating Robotics Automation AMRs include higher throughput, streamlined workflows, reduced bottlenecks, increased productivity and a shift in worker focus toward more complex, value-added tasks. In addition, facilities optimize floor space and labor.
Zebra Robotics Automation’s robust, cloud-based portfolio features Zebra AMRs and Symmetry™ software, which help new and existing operations to increase throughput and decrease dependency on manual transport or fixed automation through four factors:
Designed to navigate and operate independently in both manufacturing and warehouse environments, our AMRs use sophisticated sensors and cloud-based software to travel dynamic routes, avoid obstacles and adapt to changes as needed — all without human intervention.
This means an operation can better utilize their workforce elsewhere or on higher-skill tasks. Ultimately, that allows for optimized use of space, better labor utilization and cost savings.
Integrating AMRs into an operation involves a series of well-coordinated steps to ensure smooth adoption, efficiency and safety. It is important to identify key objects and determine the specific tasks that the AMRs need to perform. This could include material transport, picking, etc. It is also important to review all existing workflows. This will help identify bottlenecks and areas where AMRs can add value. Another important consideration is the environment. It is essential to look at both the physical environment and the technical infrastructure. Assess the facility’s layout, obstacles, potential hazards, as well as assess the connectivity, charging stations and existing systems.
If you or your operation are considering automation for a material movement or fulfillment solution, Zebra Robotics Automation is ready to help. Our Robotics Specialist team can partner with you to identify opportunities within a facility to adapt, overcome or eliminate existing challenges. From there, our Solutions Design team will develop a workflow solution that can meet your needs and walk you through implementation.
