Multiple new products unveiled, mobile robots compete at LET2022 Guangzhou Logistics Exhibition

At this exhibition with the theme of "Smart Factory, Smart Logistics - Embracing the New Era of Smart Logistics", a number of mobile robot companies and logistics system integrators including Hikvision Robotics, Huarui Technology, Hai Robotics, Kuka, Jiateng, Mairui, Mowei Robotics, Lingdong Technology, Hangcha, Noli, BYD, Sany Robotics, Banyitong, Muniu Liuma, Ouneng, Lanjian Intelligent and Kejie Intelligent gathered together to show off their "hardcore muscles".

On the first day of LET 2022, Huarui Technology launched its new autumn product, the fork-type Little King Kong AMR.

The new fork-type AMR uses laser + visual fusion safety detection, which can achieve 360° safe obstacle avoidance and low obstacle detection. The rated load of this new product is 1500kg, which can meet the requirements of picking and placing goods in a 2100mm channel and support 7° climbing requirements. According to the standard intelligent pallet recognition and intelligent scheduling system, the fork-type AMR can also meet the automatic adjustment and docking of pallet deviations of 10° or 10cm, while realizing intelligent cluster scheduling.

According to KUKA AMR's pre-conference spoilers, at the LET 2022 exhibition, the second heavyweight product, the KMP 1500i, was displayed on site following the release of the first localized platform AMR, the KMP 600i, at the end of 2021.

It is understood that KMP 1500i is a heavy-duty AMR that integrates three navigation methods: laser SLAM, QR code navigation, and visual SLAM navigation, with a maximum load of 1.5 tons . In actual operation, KMP 1500i has eight levels of safety protection, can be used in 55% high-dynamic environments, and can meet the needs of heavy-duty material and cargo handling in a variety of industrial manufacturing scenarios.

Following the release of KMP 600i, KUKA AMR also released two new roller transfer AMRs, namely KMP 600i-1-5G-DM and KMP 600i-1-SR. According to the official introduction, the roller transfer AMR is based on the KMP 600i standard mobile chassis and is equipped with a customized roller transfer structure. It can be docked with equipment such as machines, transmission lines or tooling mechanisms to achieve flexible in-plant logistics. This series of robots can be adapted to different carriers such as material boxes, pallets, and trays. The load and docking height can be customized according to on-site needs.

At the exhibition, KUKA AMR also demonstrated the integrated intelligent logistics solution of KMP+ series AMR products + K-MR图片S software platform + external equipment (machines, conveyor lines/tooling mechanisms, etc.). Through the perfect combination of two KMPs and a series of KUKA mobile robot special machines, KUKA mobile robot expert system (K-MR图片S) and roller conveyor lines, and the docking accuracy of roller AMR, customized AMR and conveyor lines is controlled within ±5mm, accurate, efficient and flexible intelligent logistics can be achieved.

▌Lingdong Technology——Releases the Apex 1400-L Intelligent Unmanned Forklift

At the LET 2022 exhibition, Lingdong Technology's new Apex 1400-L intelligent unmanned forklift also attracted countless eyeballs.

It is understood that the launch of the Apex 1400-L intelligent unmanned forklift is of great strategic significance to Lingdong Technology, which has long focused on visual navigation AMR. It not only further enhances the automation and intelligent practice of Lingdong Technology's end-to-end factory unmanned logistics solutions, but also effectively supplements Lingdong Technology's product ecology and layout under the smart logistics and warehousing system.

In order to meet the increasingly personalized needs in logistics and warehousing systems, Lingdong Technology has also innovatively integrated a number of advanced technologies into the creation of the Apex 1400-L intelligent unmanned forklift. For example, by integrating multi-sensor fusion technology, dynamic obstacle visual recognition technology and "vision + laser radar" multi-sensor deployment, it can achieve accurate docking based on automatic sensing and recognition of the corresponding tray position on the shelf.

Based on years of accumulation in computer vision and multi-sensor fusion technology, Lingdong Technology has also incorporated a number of functions such as intelligent rack identification and rack offset identification, enabling the Apex 1400-L intelligent unmanned forklift to still perform automated handling freely in complex production environments.

In addition, Lingdong Technology has made more detailed optimizations for on-site security, unified dispatch management, and elevator docking:

Through the form of "machine vision + lidar", the product has keen perception and more accurate positioning capabilities to ensure the real-time safety of on-site logistics transportation.

" The Apex 1400-L itself has single-unit intelligent capabilities. By connecting it to the Martix platform of Lingdong Technology, unified scheduling and management of all machines in the field can be achieved. The system is connected to the warehouse elevator to achieve completely unmanned automated collaboration in the warehouse, reduce elevator queuing time, and improve overall operational efficiency. " At the on-site press conference, Lingdong Technology believes that intelligent unmanned forklifts are an important part of promoting the digitalization of logistics and manufacturing. The new Apex 1400-L product, which has multiple characteristics such as simple and flexible deployment, safe and reliable operation, high degree of intelligence, and strong compatibility with the site, has begun to be commercialized in logistics and warehousing companies.

Lingdong Technology stated that it will continue to be committed to using artificial intelligence and robotics technology innovations in the future to create a full-category, full-scenario AMR product ecosystem, and accelerate the transformation of different companies towards intelligent and flexible supply chains.

▌Mowei Robotics——First to launch the cold storage version of the forward-moving unmanned forklift MW-R16H

At this year's LET exhibition, the new product launch of Micro Robotics was also eye-catching.

It can be used in cold storage environments as low as -30°C, and the intelligent constant temperature technology for batteries and key components can achieve smooth switching between high and low temperature environments . The cold storage version of the forward-reaching unmanned forklift MW-R16H released by Mowei Robotics this time can be said to be the "king bomb" on the scene. The enthusiasm of the audience also allowed Mowei Robotics to further demonstrate the scene operation of the cold storage version of the forward-reaching unmanned forklift MW-R16H.

According to Mowei Robotics, the operation process and production efficiency of factory business have been restricted by low temperature environment for a long time, and the frequent switching between high and low temperature will also have a significant impact on the health of workers. Mowei Robotics' cold storage version of the forward-reaching unmanned forklift MW-R16H can meet the needs of unmanned handling and storage in special low-temperature environments. Even in different scenarios such as high-rise warehouses, cargo loading and unloading, and production line transfer in cold chain scenarios, it can still operate in an orderly and intelligent manner.

In addition to the cold storage version of the reach-type unmanned forklift MW-R16H, Mowei Robotics also brought a number of innovative products, including the Microbee X20, which combines the advantages of "small, light, fast and excellent" and can carry a load of up to 2000kg, and the intelligent four-way shuttle vehicle MW-Z1 with a body of only 120mm and a load capacity of 1.5 tons.
