Honeywell has entered a strategic collaboration with Fetch Robotics to provide distribution centers with autonomous mobile robots to help them more effectively fulfill growing volumes of e-commerce orders.\u00a0The initiative enables Honeywell Intelligrated<\/a>\u2019s customers to increase productivity and boost labor efficiency by deploying Fetch Robotics\u2019 autonomous mobile robotics, which operate safely alongside people to transport items through distribution centers without human guidance or fixed paths.<\/p>\n

By adding this offering to its smart robotics portfolio, Honeywell Intelligrated can provide customers with a range of flexible automation solutions that can be tailored to address current and future operational needs.<\/p>\n

Honeywell Intelligrated previously announced its collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University to develop next-generation artificial intelligence and robotics technologies for distribution centers. The Fetch Robotics collaboration adds mobility capability to the portfolio of robotics solutions Honeywell is bringing to market.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs staffing challenges and the continued growth of online shopping are pressuring supply chains, robotics can be an effective solution to help make large, integrated distribution centers more efficient,\u201d said Pieter Krynauw, president of Honeywell Intelligrated<\/a>. \u201cWith this arrangement, we can provide our customers with a complete suite of fixed and mobile robotics solutions, backed by the expert systems integration, solutions development and reliable, 24\/7 technical support they expect from us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fetch Robotics offers a range of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) that use a combination of LiDAR and 3D cameras \u2013 similar to self-driving car technology \u2013 to navigate unpredictable warehouse environments safely and accurately. In the event of an obstacle, these robots can adjust routes in real time, unlike automated guided vehicle systems, which depend on pre-programmed, fixed paths.<\/p>\n

This enables the AMRs to take on repetitive warehousing tasks that may otherwise require significant travel time between locations and transporting heavy loads. Fetch Robotics\u2019 solutions are also able to deploy and redeploy in just a single day without integration requirements or changes to infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are committed to helping customers achieve their productivity goals by providing on-demand automation that enables a wide range of flexible and safe AMRs to be rapidly deployed,\u201d said Melonee Wise, CEO, Fetch Robotics. \u201cWe fully expect our relationship with Honeywell Intelligrated<\/a> to help accelerate the adoption of our cloud robotics solution within the logistics and manufacturing verticals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fetch Robotics systems operate safely alongside people to transport items through distribution centers without human guidance or fixed paths.<\/p><\/div>\n

Companies are increasingly turning to robotics to gain competitive advantage in the supply chain, with adoption expected to rise from 34 to 73 percent over the next five years, according to a survey in the 2018 Material Handling Institute\u2019s annual report. The study identified that the most common uses for robotics in warehousing operations include tasks like receiving and putting away inventory.<\/p>\n

Honeywell Intelligrated<\/a> provides automation equipment, software and services to more than 60 of the top 100 global retailers and half of the top 100 internet retailers. Distribution centers can deploy the business\u2019s Momentum warehouse execution system to bring together automation solutions, workflows, orders and labor in a unified platform to provide real-time visibility and help make operations more efficient.<\/p>\n

Fetch Robotics develops and manufactures AMRs for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and logistics providers. The company provides an extensive and versatile portfolio of mobile robots and a powerful, cloud-based software platform that offers on-demand automation for a range of applications, including material handling and inventory management.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
