UniCarriers Americas (UCA)<\/a> will collaborate with Vecna Robotics<\/a>, a leader in autonomous material handling solutions. Through this joint effort, UCA<\/a>\u2019s industry-leading reliability will now be matched with leading-edge technology to advance a line of self-driving vehicles for warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing applications.<\/p>\n

Vecna Robotics<\/a> will use UCA<\/a> models, including the center rider pallet SPXe and electric tow tractor TGXe, and equip them with Vecna Robotics<\/a>\u2019 advanced autonomous navigation technology, learning algorithms and workflow orchestration software to turn them into Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR). AMRs are capable of moving bulk material through dynamic warehouse environments. The new line of vehicles are capable of both vertical and horizontal movements and can carry capacities up to 10,000 pounds.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs customers look to automate their material handling processes, UCA<\/a> is committed to leveraging our best-in-class manufacturing capabilities and industry-leading reliability for automation companies,\u201d said Brian Markison, senior director of national accounts and AGV sales at UCA<\/a>. \u201cThe AMR market is emerging, and these technology providers are looking for material handling solutions to scale production and provide aftermarket support. These are the types of assets that UCA<\/a> can bring to the table.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two models will also be integrated with Vecna Robotics<\/a>\u2019 pivot.al orchestration system, which is an AI-based fleet manager that analyzes operations to coordinate and distribute real-time tasks amongst employees, robots and associated systems based on capabilities, location and availability. This allows environments to adapt their workflows and run efficiently through varied levels of demand and operational changes.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Ergonomics and operator comfort combined with the maneuverability of a 190-degree steering arc and UniCarriers reliability make the TGX a powerful choice for applications requiring operational flexibility and productivity.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cVecna Robotics<\/a>\u2019 collaboration with UCA<\/a> has come at the perfect time,\u201d said Michael Baier, Director of Hardware Engineering for Vecna Robotics. \u201cOur customer base is rapidly expanding. Companies are no longer asking themselves if they should automate, but rather when. UCA<\/a> is part of the 4th largest forklift provider in the world, giving us the ability to meet increasing demand and scale with impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis opportunity is just one of many automation solutions we will help deliver to the market, and as a corporation, we are enthusiastic about elevating our offerings and taking our business to the next level,\u201d Markison concludes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
