Built for Customizable Automation

Custom Lifting Applications
Top-module configurable for pallets, bins, trolleys, and custom load fixtures. Same robot platform adapts to different material handling tasks without swapping equipment.
Dual Direction Travel
Bidirectional movement without turning around — critical for tight aisles, back-and-forth dock runs, and shuttle-style routes where floor space is limited.
Conveyor Transfer Ready
Handoff loads directly to and from conveyor lines, transfer stations, and roller-top fixtures — bridges AMR transport with fixed material-handling infrastructure.
3D LiDAR + Camera Navigation
Natural navigation with 3D LiDAR and camera sensor fusion — no floor tape, beacons, or infrastructure changes. Handles twilight and dark-mode operations reliably.
Auto Charging
Automatic docking and charging cycles keep the robot on the floor without operator intervention. 8-hour runtime with a 2-hour recharge — fits one-robot, one-shift deployments cleanly.
ISO 3691-4 Certified
Third-party safety certified for autonomous vehicle operation in manufacturing environments — functional safety systems, zone-aware navigation, and risk-assessed operation alongside people.
Industry 4.0 Ready
Integrates with Factory MAS and WMS systems via Ati Fleet Manager. OTA updates and remote diagnostics keep the fleet current without scheduled downtime.
