What You Will Learn

Learn how intelligent logistic robots leverage AGV/AMR-technology, AI, and modular software and hardware, to deliver operational flexibility. True Industry 4.0 solutions mitigate issues related to data intelligence, unpredictable changes in inventory, customer demand and operational changes. Flexible infrastructure in logistics systems for warehousing and manufacturing are no longer optional. We will also demystify Industry 4.0 and what lies ahead.

The last few years have seen the rapid evolution of flexible logistic robotics that address different business needs. While Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) are the latest step towards making in-house logistics activities more efficient, they’re often associated with AGVs – Automatic Guided Vehicles. Learn how to differentiate AMRs and AGVs technologies and where to apply the different technologies. Also learn how to mitigate issues due to increased flow of information, unpredictable changes in consumption, and the need for more flexible logistics processes in warehousing and manufacturing.

Discover how logistic robotics combine hardware, software, and intelligent algorithms to enable dynamic logistics operations eliminating the need for fixed infrastructure. Find out how to apply IoT principles to leverage weighing systems, dimensioning laser scanners, RFID, vision systems and more to allow logistic robots systems to move dynamically in the surrounding environment for a more safe, efficient, and intelligent logistics process. See why this facilitates quick implementation, scalable solutions, and the ability to adjust the number of robots and adapt to fluctuating throughput demand.

Learn all there is to know about the Robot Management System (RMS) and how smart software uses intelligent scheduling and task distribution to control networks of AMRs that work in coordination to streamline logistics processes. What do we mean by a modular software platform? How can a wide range of SDKs and APIs be connected to other systems, allowing AMRs to flexibly integrate with other equipment or technologies, mitigate the risks of single-point-of-failure, and support continuous, large scale operations?

How is artificial intelligence applied in practice, and which AI-driven applications can actualize warehouse digitalization and realize the benefits industry 4.0? Let’s study the secret behind task matching, order grouping, smart replenishment, real-time tracking of SKUs, and other AI applications. Understand how real-time synchronization of highly dynamic physical inventory, spatial and labor utilization boosts the overall efficiency and transparency of the supply chain. Learn how to optimize real estate, labor, energy, maintenance to extract the most value from your operations.

Lastly, see how a wide range of robotics hardware brings more flexibility to warehouse operations. Discover why Goods-to-Person picking robots, RoboShuttle Bin-to-Person picking robots, and AislePick collaborative picking robots can streamline logistics processes. We’ll present a case study of these solutions helping a well-known brand like Decathlon, Nike, and Walmart to optimize their warehouse operations.
