Mobile Robots
Mobile robots handle repetitive tasks involving large handling volumes with a high level of safety and efficiency. Not only are they a quick way to automate new warehouses; they can also improve your logistics processes in existing warehouse structures. Built-in flexibility enables subsequent changes in layout.
To avoid downtimes in the launch phase of a mobile robot in your warehouse, we simulate the optimal routes in advance and thoroughly test the hardware and software. You therefore achieve maximum process reliability and efficient processes from the very beginning.
Our mobile robots feature a state-of-the-art safety system. The integrated 360° safety sensor system means that Jungheinrich mobile robots are ideal for ensuring safe operation in mixed traffic.
Their main applications are in the automation of recurring warehouse and transport tasks. Mobile robots detect loading devices and objects automatically: plus, they come to a safe halt or, if preferred, go around any obstacles in their path. It is also possible to integrate additional machine protection sensors. Automatic charging of the mobile robots also delivers increased efficiency.
The mobile robots have many potential application scenarios. Possible areas include:
low-level applications, high-stack applications, load towing indoor, underload transport, automated VNA storage and tote handling.
When it comes to navigation, Jungheinrich mobile robots are extremely adaptable. They offer the right solution for every scenario. Be it reflector navigation, marker navigation, infrastructure-free contour navigation or guided navigation – we advise you on which option is ideal for your warehouse environment.
We also factor in the interfaces to be used: the award-winning Jungheinrich Logistics Interface gets all warehouse components working together perfectly. You can also use this system to connect additional hardware, such as fire doors, rapid action doors and automated systems. The control system and the truck communicate with each other using standardised VDA 5050 or proprietary interfaces.
As a rule, we adapt the Jungheinrich mobile robots to suit the individual processes of our customers. We help you to integrate them with ease into existing processes and work flexibly to connect them to host systems.
With our wide range of mobile robots, we will also find the appropriate future-ready solution for your company. When your needs change, you can rest assured that the scalability of both truck and software will allow your mobile robot ecosystem to grow with you.
Jungheinrich quality is the key distinguishing feature on the market – in terms of hardware, software and also service. We provide you with a single contact person for both hardware and software. Planning, implementation and After Sales Service all come from a single source. When it's time for a service, we guarantee a fast response time and a worldwide service.
Jungheinrich has an eye on your entire warehouse
The quick start for your automation
Manoeuvrable, compact and strong for underload transport: As compact mobile robots (AMR) in two variants, the Jungheinrich arculee are the perfect choice for automated transport in the field. Whether on special transport tables or directly on the backpack – our arculee trucks are efficiency boosters for your automation and simplify linking different logistics areas. Automate and streamline your material flow with the Jungheinrich arculee S and M.
Efficient production supply with SOTO
The smart link between warehouse and production: the autonomous SOTO small load carrier robot offers you the option of flexibly supplying material with different heights and rotations. From live storage racking to conveyor belts and tow trains, the SOTO mobile robot is the perfect link between automated storage and production supply, delivering the required materials directly to the assembly line. Take advantage of our SOTO in container handling to create valuable working space.
All-round safety in mixed operation
Bring maximum efficiency to your production supply with our versatile mobile robots for economical storage and retrieval at heights of up to 6 metres. Our automated high-lift vehicles can lift 1,700 kg in the tightest of spaces, but are also suitable for transporting special load carriers. The integrated 360° safety sensor system ensures a high level of safety in mixed operation. From pallets and boxes to containers – our mobile robots work highly efficiently and flexibly for you.
Mobile robots for ground-level transport
Why not benefit from our low lift portfolio for a wide range of settings? From block storage to pallet transport in warehouses and production or goods transport over short, medium, or long distances – automated Jungheinrich low lift trucks are ideal for floor-level transport and for picking up and setting down various load carriers weighing up to 2,500 kg. Our mobile robots also reliably handle the automated supply of incoming and outgoing goods lanes.
High storage density in a small area
Our Jungheinrich EKXa is the ideal choice for equipping your narrow aisle warehouse for the future. It can be automated in stages and features efficient storage and retrieval at heights of up to 13 m thanks to optimum space utilisation and 360° safety sensor systems for maximum safety in the man-machine environment. Pallet and clearance detection not only enable the planning of a new warehouse, but also the automation of existing manual racking.
