Signode Advances End-Of-Line, Warehouse Automation With AMRs Tampa, Florida based Signode, a global provider of transit packaging equipment, automation, materials, and after- market support solutions, today announced an expanded portfolio of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) designed to extend automation beyond the packaging line. The expanded offering supports the movement of palletized loads throughout manufacturing and warehouse opera- tions. With configurations that include lifting robots, pallet trucks, counter-balanced forklifts, reach trucks, and stack- er forklifts, the portfolio supports a range of pallet-han- dling requirements.

The AMR expansion also builds on Signode’s broader automation portfolio, connecting end-of-line packaging, palletizing, material handling, and warehouse technolo- gies across the operation. “End-of-line automation doesn’t stop once a product has been packaged and palletized,” said Shawn Semer, Vice President, Global Automation, Signode. “That pallet still has to move through the facility and ultimately into storage or distribution. Expanding our AMR portfolio gives customers more ways to automate those movements and connect processes across their operation.” Designed for pallet-transfer and lifting applications, the AMR portfolio gives manufacturers options for moving and lifting palletized loads across a range of weight and handling requirements. Robots can navigate without fixed lines or magnetic strips and reroute around obstructions as they move through the facility. The portfolio can also be scaled as operational needs evolve, giving manufacturers the flexibility to expand au- tonomous pallet movement over time. Because AMRs are often deployed as fleets rather than as individual ma- chines, manufacturers can add capacity and capabilities as material-handling requirements change. For organiza- tions operating multiple facilities, the portfolio can also support a more consistent approach to automation across locations. CONTINUED ON PAGE 14
