AMR Pallet Conveyor for Distribution Centers

Description

Designed to replace forklifts in the warehouse, the PalletTransport1500 is an AMR that supports cross-docking, returns, and case picking workflows for contactless pallet transport in distribution centers. The PalletTransport1500 uses Honeywell Intelligrated’s Momentum warehouse execution system software, known as Momentum WES, to safely move pallets and other large payloads up to 1,136 kg (2,504 lb.). Honeywell’s Intelligrated’s turnkey Pallet Conveyance solution, powered by Momentum WES and the PalletTransport1500, is designed to support workflows for e-commerce fulfillment, store replenishment, and wholesale distribution center operations.

 

The PalletTransport1500 consists of the Fetch Freight1500 AMR with an integrated lift and a pick-up and delivery station, while conforming with the new ANSI/RIA R15.08 standard for autonomous mobile robots. When combined with Momentum WES, which is designed to address e-commerce fulfillment challenges by orchestrating nearly every aspect of automated warehouse execution, the Pallet Transport 1500 can manage long-haul material transport without any need for human involvement, freeing up workers for more value-added activities. By taking care of long-haul movements in the facility and keeping forklifts contained to inbound and outbound docks, the Pallet Conveyance solution reduces injuries and creates a safer, more efficient warehouse environment overall.

 

Through the integrated Pallet Conveyance solution, facilities can leverage the PalletTransport1500 to support a wide variety of workflows including:

  • Cross-docking: the AMR can transport pallets directly from inbound to outbound shipment areas. After pallets are unloaded from the truck, the AMR carries pallets routed from the inbound trailers/containers directly to the respective outbound shipping area location. 
  • Returns: once inbound items are sorted based on product type or vendor, the AMR transports pallets to their appropriate return station (inventory, recycle, charity, etc.) 
  • Warehouse transport: after received products are unloaded and palletized, the AMR moves inventory to storage locations based on business needs

 

This latest offering builds on Fetch’s ongoing partnership with Honeywell, which combines the power of Honeywell software with Fetch’s existing suite of AMRs to support autonomous workflows for smaller payloads. With the additional capabilities of the PalletTransport1500, the combined offering now supports picking and material movement workflows for payloads of all sizes, enabling a fully optimized warehouse environment.
