enVista has launched the enMotion platform, which is comprised of multiple robotic technologies and an AI-powered multi-agent orchestration engine to optimize distribution center (DC) operations.
enMotion dynamically orchestrates multiple automated guided vehicle (AGV), collaborative robotic (cobot) and goods-to-person (GTP) systems. enMotion’s robotic solutions will leverage GreyOrange’s AI-driven orchestration platform, GreyMatter, and enVista’s enMotion warehouse execution system (WES) and warehouse control system (WCS) to drive end-to-end movement of orders and inventory in the DC.
enMotion’s first robotic solution consists of a single and double deep pallet cobot focused on full case selection. enMotion’s robotic technology powered by the GreyMatter software will provide efficiency in manufacturing and distribution, reducing travel and search time by nearly 80%. Both cobots are equipped with LiDAR-guided simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) navigation and 360-degree safety scanners for enhanced safety.
Offering a 360-degree view at all times, these autonomous forklift robots navigate using features of the warehouse as opposed to reflectors, enabling them to detect objects, humans and otherwise to enable course adjustments.
