Narrow-Aisle Autonomous Forklift Reshaping Internal Factory Logistics

 

A New Model for Internal Logistics Flow

Picture this: A precision electronics workshop requiring timely delivery from the ground-floor warehouse to the third-floor assembly line. A pharmaceutical automated warehouse that must retrieve products rapidly within extremely dense aisles. A fast-paced e-commerce distribution center constantly moving goods across floors.

All face the same challenges: limited space, cross-floor workflows, high labor dependence, and efficiency ceilings.

Reeman’s narrow-aisle autonomous forklift MINI2.0 delivers a complete solution.

Unlocking Dense Storage and Maximizing Space Value

Traditional warehouses often compromise rack density to leave space for forklift turning. With its compact 1.1-meter body design, MINI2.0 moves freely between high-density racks and performs direct pallet handling without requiring wide aisles. This immediately boosts effective storage capacity without expanding the facility, generating fast and measurable ROI.

Enabling Vertical Logistics Flow Across Floors

Cross-floor logistics is often the slowest link inside factories. MINI2.0 overcomes this with autonomous elevator integration, allowing the robot to communicate with elevator systems, call and exit elevators automatically, and complete point-to-point transport between multiple levels. Raw materials, WIP, and finished goods move seamlessly across floors with no human intervention.

Connecting Intelligent Nodes for End-to-End Collaboration

In a smart factory ecosystem, MINI2.0 acts as a mobile intelligent logistics unit. It integrates with WMS and MES systems, automatically retrieving pallets up to 1 ton and placing them at 1-meter height with precision. It interfaces with conveyors, workstations, and production cells. Supported by automatic charging, it ensures stable 24/7 operation.

Building a Fully Connected Internal Logistics Network

From inbound storage and internal transfer to line-side replenishment and outbound staging, MINI2.0 functions like a flexible thread weaving together each production and logistics step. It is more than a handling machine—it is essential infrastructure for true digital and automated transformation.

Choosing Reeman MINI2.0 means choosing a seamless, intelligent, and future-ready logistics workflow.

Avoid Costly Mistakes: How to Choose the Right AMR Chassis from 4 Proven Types

Image
  As automated material handling and unmanned logistics continue to gain traction, Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are being widely adopted in factories, warehouses, hospitals, and retail environments. But before launching an AMR project, there’s one key technical decision you can’t overlook:   Which type of AMR chassis is best for your application? In this article, we’ll break down the  four most common AMR base types , comparing their structures, advantages, limitations, and use cases to help you choose the right foundation for your mobile robot. 1. Differential Drive Chassis How It Works: This chassis uses two powered wheels and one or two passive caster wheels. Directional movement is controlled by adjusting the speed of the two drive wheels. Pros: Simple mechanical design, low cost Mature, easy-to-implement control algorithms Ideal for light-duty, small-scale AMR projects Cons: Large turning radius, poor maneuverability in tight spaces Limited traction and ground ada...

How Autonomous Forklifts Navigate Multi-Floor Warehouses

As warehouses grow more vertical to maximize space, one major challenge emerges in automation: 👉 How can autonomous forklifts operate across multiple floors, including elevators and stairwells? Unlike traditional single-floor logistics, multi-story warehouse automation demands more than mobility—it requires intelligence, adaptability, and seamless coordination. This is where AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) forklifts come into play. 1. The Multi-Floor Navigation Challenge In older buildings or dense urban areas, vertical expansion is often the only viable option. But with it comes a unique set of challenges: Many elevators are manually operated or lack smart interfaces. Corridors can be narrow, and floor heights inconsistent. Wireless signal coverage is often patchy across floors. Each floor may follow different workflows or handling protocols. Without proper integration, even the most advanced robot can become stuck—literally—in an elevator shaft. 2. How AMR Forklifts Ov...
