en.Wedoany.com Reported - Roboteon Inc., based in the US, has expanded the capabilities of its intelligent warehouse and manufacturing robotics software platform, aiming to provide manufacturers with a digital nervous system for integrating, synchronizing, orchestrating, and optimizing automated material flow on the shop floor.
In the field of material handling robotics, the variety of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and autonomous AGVs continues to grow, with expanding application scopes. However, manufacturers deploying these automation systems still face challenges: inflexible and hard-coded integration methods that take too long to implement and are difficult to maintain and modify; difficulties in managing fleets of multiple robot types from different vendors; and an inability to optimize complex material flows.
Roboteon's robotic fulfillment and orchestration platform offers a unified system for managing all robot resources across robot types and vendors, optimizing material flow, and providing real-time operational visibility. The platform delivers a broad set of capabilities in robotic fulfillment and orchestration software, with key features for manufacturing including: fast and flexible integration with enterprise resource planning, warehouse management systems, manufacturing execution systems, and other software systems; vendor-agnostic fleet management that controls all robots (AMRs, AGVs, forklifts, etc.) from a single platform, regardless of type or vendor; a wide range of pre-built application portfolios covering processes such as production line or cell replenishment, inter-station work-in-progress management, piece/case/pallet picking, and finished goods transport to packaging and shipping; AI-based intelligent task assignment that dynamically allocates tasks based on real-time demand, priority, robot availability, and location; real-time visibility and tracking that monitors the precise location and status of materials, all vendor robots, and personnel on a single interface; and optimized path planning that calculates the most efficient routes for material transport and manages congestion.
Benefits for manufacturers include rapid robot integration, increased throughput, improved efficiency, enhanced accuracy, reduced operational costs, and data-driven insights. Raj Sengutuvan, Senior Vice President of Products at Roboteon, stated that the platform provides manufacturing with the capabilities needed for mobile robot integration, orchestration, and optimization, with maximum flexibility. Additionally, the Roboteon platform has achieved certified integration with SAP EWM and Microsoft Dynamics 365.
