Mobile order preparation and operator support solution from Savoye with OMRON mobile robots

The Mobile Robot solution from Savoye is a flexible and economical alternative to manual processes. Mobile robots move autonomously, carrying packages and items to the various areas of the warehouse, allowing operators to be freed from: - Routes between launching area, picking areas and packaging areas - Fatigue generated by cart handling activities The operators remain in their picking area, thus devoting their time to value-added operations. The Savoye Mobile Robot solution can be used in stand-alone mode, independently interfaced with Savoye WMS and WCS software, or in addition to an automated system. There are many use cases, all relying on the same IT architecture: - Multi-package preparation (pick & pack), - Item picking before splitting (pick-then-pack) - Replenishment of retail picking locations For more information, please visit:

UV-C robot helps businesses win the fight against Covid-19

As the UK’s customer-facing businesses plan their reopening strategies, keeping consumers and staff safe from Covid will be a key priority. In a bid to prevent future outbreaks at high footfall, everyday environments like supermarkets, bars and gyms, industrial automation specialist OMRON has teamed up with UV Systems UK, part of the Topline Group, to produce an autonomous robotic sterilisation system that guarantees to kill the virus without damage or harm to surrounding goods. The solution guarantees to eliminate viruses, pathogens and bacteria on all touchpoints within a facility, helping businesses to regain public confidence, relieve the burden on employees and meet regulations.

Made-to-order production with an advanced fleet of mobile robots at VOLA

VOLA, a Danish manufacturer of luxury sanitary and kitchen fittings, has opened a new factory that incorporates a fleet of nine LD mobile robots from Omron. The new robot fleet works side-by-side with people, and is controlled by an advanced fleet management system. These have replaced roller conveyors, leading to a more flexible production and logistics set-up that matches the company’s single-piece production process, in which everything is produced to order.

Normagrup automates material transport with autonomous mobile robots

Founded in 1971, Normagrup is a world leader in technology dedicated to the production of interior lighting. Following the company’s original spirit and desire to create high-quality, technological products, they also apply this spirit in continuously improving their production processes. When Normagrup decided to automate material transport between production areas, they opted for a fleet of autonomous mobile robots with automatic loading and unloading stations. The project was carried out with Inser Robótica S.A. #mobilerobots #robotics #AMRs #intralogistics

Mobile robot automates food distribution in a pilot at senior center

The Kustaankartano Senior Center in Finland is currently testing an autonomous mobile robot for automating food logistics between the Kustaankartano Food Centre and the senior centre. The pilot is being carried out in co-operation with Service Centre Helsinki; Helsinki Social Services and Health Care Division; and Forum Virium Helsinki. Its aim is to streamline the transport of meals to the senior centre's wards. The Polle (workhorse) robot developed by Dimalog Oy is based on OMRON’s autonomous LD-250 mobile robot. This is the strongest in the LD series of robots and can handle payloads of up to 250kg. It can navigate autonomously and is designed to interact with people to provide a collaborative and safe working environment.

LD-250 autonomous mobile robot from OMRON in a pallet wrapping application

OMRON's LD-250 autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are designed to dramatically increase productivity in manufacturing and logistics operations. They increase throughput, eliminate errors, improve material traceability, and allow employees to focus on tasks that require complex human skills. And, unlike traditional AGVs, these mobile robots navigate by the natural features of the facility and require no expensive facility modification. In this video, the mobile robot, that can carry payloads of up to 250kg, is used in an automated pallet wrapping application. For more information, please visit:

Mobile robot cart transporter solution for payloads of up to 500kg

How can innovative and safe material flow contribute to creating the factory of the future? In traditional material flow processes there are many safety concern and risks, especially when operating in narrow environments, surrounded by operators. Forklifts and tugger trains are always a safety risk when working in the same area with people. How can a solution with autonomous mobile robots help ensure safety while improving efficiency and flexibility in material flow processes? The OMRON LD-250 autonomous mobile robot can be upgraded to double its usual payload from 250kg to up to 500kg by integrating into a Cart Transporter version. The user can design a custom latching system and cart based on their specific needs. The solution ensures full safety, flexibility and just-in-time delivery of goods. For more information, visit:
