AMRs are self-driving robots that move goods safely between zones using onboard sensors and mapped navigation. They detect obstacles, slow down when needed, and meet the safety requirements for driverless industrial trucks. This makes internal transport predictable and controlled.
In a live operation, ARCO ties AMR missions into the WMS and line controls so tasks dispatch in real time and handovers at conveyors or lifts stay synchronized. A fleet manager coordinates routes and traffic, which prevents bottlenecks and keeps vehicles productive across shifts.
The result is less walking and fewer forklift moves, with full traceability of each load. AMRs connect islands of automation and scale without major rebuilds, which helps you absorb peaks and expand capacity as orders grow. ARCO applies AMR technology within pallet handling and broader intralogistics, aligning layouts and controls for stable throughput.

ARCO integrates Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to create flexible, efficient material flows between work zones. Each robot navigates safely and independently through the facility, guided by smart sensors and software. AMRs reduce manual transport, improve workplace safety, and optimize internal logistics.
How the AMR works in practice
In practice, AMRs receive tasks from the WMS or a fleet manager and navigate with onboard sensors along mapped routes. The robot detects people and obstacles, adjusts speed, and keeps a safe stopping distance. It arrives at a handover point, docks, and transfers a tote or pallet to a conveyor or lift. ARCO connects mission control with line PLCs so infeed, dwell time, and release stay synchronized. Batteries charge opportunistically to keep availability high without long stops. Supervisors see robot status and flow KPIs in real time, which helps prevent congestion and shortens response time. The result is predictable transport with less walking and fewer forklift moves.
