Autonomous mobile robots (AMR)

Autonomous horizontal transport of goods

Autonomous mobile robots such as STILL’s AXH and ACH series are small, manoeuvrable and intelligent underride vehicles that operate flexibly and proactively in complex warehouse structures. These can be used as a stand-alone solution or integrated into existing warehouse management and control systems to suit the customer’s requirements. Compared to classic automated warehouse solutions, AMRs can be integrated cost-effectively into existing environments and systems. Operating and maintenance costs are also comparatively low. To decide on the vehicle concept that best suits your specific needs, it is important to evaluate various criteria. These include, for example, the infrastructure, environment and volume of traffic in the warehouse, the need for buffer storage and the type of load, not to mention the cost implications. STILL’s experienced automation experts will support you in analysing your processes, evaluating the relevant criteria, selecting the right system as well as planning and implementing it. Our perfectly coordinated service concept, a comprehensive service network and the expert knowledge of specially trained service technicians ensure the availability of your system.

Application examples for the STILL AXH in intralogistics

Autonomous mobile robots (AMR) are already used in various industries today: e.g. parts supply for production, the automotive industry, logistics, medical manufacturing, clothing or electronics production, and e-commerce.

Goods transport with trolleys: When transporting goods using trolleys, the AXH transports the entire unit from A to B. The innovative 3D camera ensures flexible lifting of the goods before they are loaded onto the AXH as well as precise unloading at the desired destination.

Application examples for the STILL ACH in intralogistics

Goods transport via a loading platform (table): When transporting goods via a loading platform (table), the ACH transports the entire unit from A to B. The goods are placed on the loading platform. The ACH drives under the element, lifts it, transports it to its destination and deposits it there. If a conveyor trolley is used as the goods carrier, additional positioning measures may be required.

Transports individual carriers: Depending on the customer’s requirements, individual transport options (including a multi-level loading platform, conveyor trolleys or trolleys) are possible, e. g. for different carrier dimensions or transport orientation. If a conveyor trolley is used as the goods carrier, additional positioning measures may be required. Our STILL experts will implement a bespoke transport solution to suit your needs based on your specifications.

Battery technology for autonomous charging

All STILL AMRs are equipped with lithium-ion batteries to ensure constantly high performance and availability thanks to simple interim charging. Multiple devices use the same fixed charging station to charge their batteries at different times. When it reaches a state of charge (SOC) of 30 % the vehicle autonomously initiates charging, then stops charging when it reaches an SOC of 90 %. This preserves the battery and ensures an optimum service life.
