Autonomous Pallet-Moving Robot at Shows

Ocado Intelligent Automation (OIA), part of Ocado Group, will introduce a pallet-moving autonomous mobile robot (AMR) at ProMat 2025 to automate inventory movement and increase the efficiency of several warehouse workflows.

The new OIA pallet-moving AMR navigates the warehouse without any infrastructure changes or heavy manual labour required. Upscaling nearly a decade of automation experience from the company’s Chuck AMR offering, OIA’s patented system-directed software intelligently orchestrates each autonomous pallet-moving robot, or a whole fleet of them, and identifies the optimal route for it to take while preventing bottlenecks.

Autonomous Pallet-Moving Robot with a payload capacity of 3,300 pounds and built-in sensor systems to recognise pallets, the pallet-moving AMR can pick and place open or closed pallets directly from the floor, enabling warehouses and distribution centers to fully automate tasks such as cross-dock, putaway and inventory moves as well as collaborative tasks including each and case picking, replenishment and returns putaway.
