Differences Between AGVs and AMRs – No Problem for a High-Level Fleet Manager
Due to a significant labor shortage and cost increase, industrial companies face the need to use more automation to remain competitive. In this ever changing environment, manufacturers must be flexible and utilize different vehicle types, like heterogenous handling units or multi-sourcing strategies, which makes it difficult to manage fleets efficiently.
It’s tantamount for companies to connect all various actors and assets, on the shop floor, to optimize interactions and processes. As such, as an AGV or AMR producer, you will want to support your customers’ orchestration of mixed fleets. Become your customer’s efficiency scaler!
