Custom-integrated AMR systems with unmatched workflow efficiency, safety, and flexibility.
Robust, Reliable AMR Systems
Your team is your most valuable asset. Our Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are your frontline solution to protect your people, increase cost savings and keep your business moving.
Designed to enhance human capabilities and drive innovation, the Samuel Automation team can seamlessly integrate them into your facility to tackle the most time-consuming and physically taxing jobs. We have one of the strongest autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) integration teams in North America, which means, no matter what industry you’re in, our experts can provide a solution to your unique manufacturing challenges
What is an AMR?
Simply put, an AMR is a self-driving vehicle that is intended to be used inside a factory or warehouse. It automates material flow, moving things from point A to point B, unaided. This can mean moving things between pieces of automation, manual processes or throughout the warehouse.
AMRs can help businesses transform themselves, allowing teams to redeploy employees to more value-added work, while AMRs handle the more mundane tasks in a reliable and efficient way.
Where Can I Use AMRs
AMRs can be used in many different ways, but a few of the most popular are:
Moving things in and out of an area that can be dangerous, for example, a freezer or furnace
Moving things in and out of an area where you don’t want people
Transporting material over long distance
Repetitive material, part or kit transport between manufacturing processes, into a warehouse or to be prepared for shipping
Moving heavy items with the assistance of an AMR topper
Lifting items with the assistance of an AMR topper
Here are a few benefits of incorporating AMRs into your business:
Enhance safety with custom risk assessment to satisfy regulatory and internal customer needs
Increase productivity and minimize waste with inventory management from RAW to WIP to finished
Reduce labor costs with unmanned transportation
Boost employee satisfaction by transitioning demanding, repetitive tasks to AMRs
Prevent human error with production tracking and reporting
Continuous 24/7 production with automated calling and dispatching
Improve inventory management
Scale based on need
Flexible and adaptable with the ability to multi-task and be reprogrammed
Rapid ROI - two years or less (operation scale dependent)
