Logistics automation: Food & consumer goods
Maximum flexibility and efficiency for your production through intelligent, autonomous material flows
Manufacturers of consumer goods and foodstuffs are facing increasingly complex challenges: skilled labor shortages, unstable supply chains, and extremely short innovation cycles require maximum agility. By automating unproductive transport tasks with mobile robots (AMR), you can free up valuable human resources for value-adding activities and sustainably increase your productivity.
Get in touch with usThe advantages
ROI in less than 2 years: By reducing manual transport hours and increasing throughput rates, the systems typically pay for themselves in less than 24 months.
Fast return on investment (ROI): Since the mobile robots are space-saving, easy to install, and low-maintenance, the investment pays for itself extremely quickly thanks to the savings in labor hours and increased efficiency.
Productivity gains around the clock: The robots work tirelessly in multi-shift operation and coordinate their charging cycles independently to avoid costly bottlenecks in production.
challenges
The manufacturing industry demands maximum reliability under dynamic conditions. We solve your core problems:
Time-consuming sample handling
Increasing traceability requirements lead to a high frequency of quality samples that must be transported manually to the laboratory.
The solution: AMRs automatically shuttle the samples between the lines and the laboratory—optionally directly from ongoing production using integrated robotic arms.
Lack of space at the end of the line
The solution: AMRs with open interfaces integrate seamlessly into modern palletizing systems, require no fixed infrastructure, and navigate safely around employees.
Inefficient "last-meter" supply
The manual replenishment of components or packaging materials ties up skilled workers in tasks that do not directly add value.
The solution: Agile robots with trolley solutions or pallet lifts deliver materials autonomously to the line, thereby shortening changeover cycles.
