MAINKCO Industrial Computing Solutions for Autonomous Mobile Robots

Industrial Computing for Autonomous Mobile Robots 1

Background:
As per LogisticsIQ™ latest market research study, AGV and AMR Market is expected to reach more than18 Billion by 2027 with a growth rate of around 24% and 43% for AGV and AMR respectively. Both AGVs and AMRs collectively are going to cross the installed base of 2.4 million in 2027 to make the mobile robots a new normal in our day-to-day operational activities.
Mobile Robots (AGV and AMR Market) are enabling the optimization of space in warehouse facilities in logistics and manufacturing and can reduce the need for new and costly green field fulfillment and distribution centers. While new centers are still being built, they are being built with robots and other automation in mind. Even these robotic systems are flexible and can be added or removed as per the requirement. But we are witnessing new applications of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) apart from logistics and manufacturing due to advancement in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Vision, manipulation capabilities for automatic picking and placing, and robotic mechanics.

Industry Requirements:
Compared with logistics warehouses, manufacturing customers have more complex and unique operational needs. AMR application in logistics and warehousing usually focuses on human delivery (G2P), which is a relatively mature technology. Manufacturing, which is different, has many more people on the production line than in the warehouse, and often has more complex activity interactions. Therefore, using AMR in the production line needs to be able to interact with machines in a variety of ways and more diverse devices.
Therefore, for AMR running in a factory, they usually have to be highly customized, and they must meet more stringent safety and accuracy requirements. The essence of AMR is robotics, and robotics is a comprehensive technology with four parts: algorithms, system software, mechanical hardware, and electronic circuits, each of which is crucial.
