Under-riding AMR Project | Intelligent Intralogistics Solution for Windows Processing Equipment Manufacturing
Overview
The client is a manufacturing enterprise seeking to upgrade its internal material handling system. The original logistics model faced several operational challenges:
- Dispersed production stations with complex transport routes
- Heavy reliance on manual material handling
- Increasing labor costs
- Safety risks caused by forklift–personnel mixed traffic
- Difficulty matching higher production takt times
To enhance automation, flexibility, and operational efficiency, the client implemented an Under-riding Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) System to build a smart, scalable intralogistics network.

System Solution Design
Equipment Selection – Under-riding AMR
The project adopts low-profile under-riding AMRs with integrated lifting mechanisms. Key features include:
- Ultra-low body design for under-cart access
- Automatic lifting system for trolley or pallet handling
- 360° laser navigation with SLAM mapping
- Multi-layer safety protection (laser scanners, emergency stop, anti-collision strips)
- Automatic charging and battery management
Applications include:
- Trolley transportation
- Pallet transfer
- Line-side material distribution
System Architecture
The complete solution consists of:
- AMR fleet
- Robot Control System (RCS) / Fleet Management System
- Interface with WMS / MES
- Automatic charging stations
- Industrial wireless communication network
This forms a closed-loop process of task generation → intelligent dispatch → autonomous execution → real-time data feedback.
Operating Workflow
- MES generates a material request
- The dispatch system assigns the optimal AMR
- AMR navigates autonomously to pickup point
- Robot lifts the trolley from underneath
- Delivers via optimal path planning
- Lowers the trolley and confirms task completion
The entire process operates without manual intervention.
