Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV)

Automated guided vehicles for your intralogistics – Phoenix Mecano is official distributor and integrator

With the driverless transport systems from Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR), Phoenix Mecano offers you autonomous mobile robots that score points for their versatile and flexible application options and user-friendly operation. The AMR from Mobile Industrial Robots are versatile in use and free in design. For example, MiR robots can be equipped with various add-on modules developed by MiR. With these products you get a CE-certified complete solution from MiR. If there is no suitable add-on module available, we will work out an individual solution for you as an integrator, so that the application is designed exactly for your application requirements. It does not matter whether you are looking for an application for the industry or the health care sector.

Our goal is economic automation and an increase in productivity in your intralogistics. The mobile robots often achieve a payback within the first year.

Difference between AMR and AGV

What is the difference between an AMR and an AGV?

There are a lot of terms in the field of autonomous transportation systems. AGV stands for Automated Guided Vehicle. These types of transport systems require guidance for orientation. This can take the form of rails, markings or magnetic strips embedded in the ground. They are thus bound to predefined routes.

MiR's driverless transport systems are so-called autonomous mobile robots (AMR). Compared to conventional AGVs, AMRs offer the advantage of being able to orient and navigate themselves independently by means of sensors and cameras, making them very flexible in terms of route finding. They autonomously avoid people or objects and orient themselves to a captured map of the environment. This makes AMRs the best choice for entering the world of automated guided vehicles. You do not have to make any adjustments to the infrastructure in your production.

Avoiding obstacles

AMR transport robots independently avoid people or objects

Navigation

The AMR robot navigates autonomously through cameras and sensors

No adaptation of the infrastructure necessary

The AMR does not need any markings or rails on or in the ground for navigation

Navigation

How does an AMR navigate?

Thanks to Sick laser scanners, 3D cameras and proximity sensors, no external navigation systems or guidance aids are required for navigation. Integrated collision detection ensures that the robots can work safely and efficiently in dynamic environments together with your employees. The robots avoid people and objects and orient themselves at all times to a captured environment map.
The environment map and work missions are recorded in the user-friendly and web-based software. No programming knowledge is required to operate and program the AMR. This ensures a very easy and fast implementation in your plant. The software is accessed via WLAN either from a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet, or from a PC. The management and control of multiple AMR is done via MiR Fleet Management.
