AMR Forklifts Transform Wrapping Tasks with Smart Docking

 

The Problem: Automated Machines, Manual Delays

In many warehouses, automatic wrapping machines often idle. Why? While they wrap automatically, pallets still arrive via manually scheduled forklifts. This creates inefficient "man-waiting-for-machine" cycles. The solution lies in connecting the equipment.

The Solution: Smart Docking in Action

Reeman's AMR forklifts solve this. First, they receive a dispatch order to pick up a pallet. Using LiDAR, they align with millimeter precision. Then, they autonomously drive into the wrapper's docking zone.

Next, a communication module triggers the wrapper to start—no button presses needed. After wrapping, a signal tells the AMR to retrieve the pallet. Finally, it delivers the load to the next stop. This flow eliminates queues and idle time.

Beyond Wrapping: Core AMR Capabilities

This is just one application. These forklifts are built for modern factories.

  • Flexible Navigation: LiDAR allows quick deployment without floor changes. They dynamically avoid people and obstacles, ensuring steady workflow.

  • Heavy-Duty Performance: A 1.5-ton capacity handles heavy loads for various tasks, from raw materials to finished goods.

  • Multi-Floor Logistics: They autonomously use elevators and automatic doors, creating a true end-to-end unmanned loop.

  • Integrated Safety: Multi-zone lasers and bumpers ensure immediate stop responses for safety.

Creating a Connected Flow

Reeman AMR forklifts integrate isolated steps—like wrapping and transport—into one continuous process. When machines collaborate, efficiency gains become systemic, not just incremental.

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...
