Services
AGVs
Automated Guided Vehicles navigate using lasers and vision systems to transport materials in warehouses and manufacturing facilities. These robotic solutions reduce manual handling while improving logistics efficiency. Our members provide AGVs for repetitive tasks requiring precise positioning in both industrial and healthcare environments.
AMRs
Autonomous Mobile Robots offer flexible goods-to-person picking solutions for mid-to-high SKU environments. These scalable systems improve safety by minimising human interaction in storage areas. Our members supply AMRs that complement traditional automation while reducing operational costs through increased efficiency.
ASRS
Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems provide computer-controlled warehouse solutions with minimal manual intervention. Our members offer mini-load systems for totes and pallet configurations that optimise space while increasing throughput rates. These systems include shuttle technology and stacker cranes for various load capacities.
Conveyors
Conveyor systems form the backbone of automated warehouses by moving unit loads through distribution centres. Our members supply pallet conveyors, belt systems, and gravity conveyors that integrate with other automation technologies. These solutions improve efficiency in receiving, sorting, and shipping operations across multiple industries.
Control Systems
Control systems manage automated warehouse operations through programmable logic controllers and feedback loops. Our members provide integrated solutions that coordinate conveyors, cranes, and storage systems. These systems ensure precise regulation of material handling processes while enabling real-time monitoring and optimisation.
