The Outcome
The Situation
In three Continental factories, the manufacturing of friction brake and electronic parking brake systems relies on manual transport using forklifts for handling heavy materials, despite ongoing efforts aimed at automation.
The Challenge
Continental faced a two-fold challenge: first, the imperative to automate these factories with cutting-edge mobile robots; second, the need for a robust fleet management solution that would seamlessly connect diverse mobile robots and
ensure future scalability and expansion.
