Chicago, IL — June 17, 2026
Ati Robotics will exhibit at Automate 2026, June 22–25, at South Hall, Booth 450, McCormick Place. The company — an A3 member and provider of autonomous material orchestration systems - will run a live multi-bot demonstration throughout the show, combining a Sherpa XT Lite tugger, a Sherpa Mecha humanoid, and a Sherpa Pallet Mover to work in a continuously, cycling coordinated workflow. It is the first major industry event where Ati Robotics takes the floor under its new identity.
The Case for Material Orchestration
Manufacturing is changing quicker than most automation strategies can keep up with. Simply adding more robots to an uncoordinated floor does not solve the problem — it adds complexity. Ati understands that manufacturers need an orchestrated system that allows every machine, every workflow, and every data feed to work as part of larger process. That has been Ati Robotics’ premise since 2017: that the future of factory automation is not more standalone machines, but a coordinated intelligence layer that aligns automation to how the factory actually operates.
That layer is Ativerse — the Ati Robotics platform that sits above existing ERP and MES infrastructure, connecting robots, real-time shop-floor data, and AI agents into a single orchestrated system. Across more than 70 factory deployments, Ativerse has coordinated over 2 million autonomous missions with a 99% mission success rate. Average deployment runs less than 4 weeks. For US customers, the average payback period is under 6 months.
With the Ati booth, 3 Sherpa bots will be executing a single material-handling loop in sequence. The Sherpa XT Lite will be moving bin-loaded trolleys between stations, while the Sherpa Mecha humanoid handles bin transfers between trolleys, racks, and pallets. The Sherpa Pallet Mover will move completed pallets to downstream stations as an operator reloads the bins to complete the cycle. Each robot’s move connects to the next — no manual direction, no staged handoffs. A working illustration of what coordinated automation looks like in practice.
Automation doesn’t stop at the robot — and it never did. The factories winning today are the ones where every machine, every system, and every operator is working from the same picture of what needs to move and when. We have spent nine years building the layer that makes that possible. Automate 2026 is where we put it in front of the people who need it most.
— Saurabh Chandra, Founder & CEO, Ati Robotics
The automation conversation has matured. Buyers at Automate are not asking whether to automate anymore — they are asking how to make their automation work together. That is exactly the challenge Ati Robotics solves. Join us in the south hall, booth 450 to see the workflow running, and come talk to us about what it takes to bring real coordination to your floor.
