Autonomous Forklift
ABB Robotics has launched the Flexley Stack F712 autonomous mobile robot (AMR), creating a complete interoperable ecosystem across all major Visual SLAM AMR types.
The F712 is designed for material handling, end-of-line storage and warehouse operations across industries, including automotive manufacturing. F712 is capable of handling multiple load types and sizes—including open and closed pallets, containers or racks—up to 2,000 kg and reaching heights of 8.5 meters.
F712 uses Visual SLAM to map and navigate its environment, eliminating the need for pre-installed infrastructure like markers or reflectors. The AI-enabled Visual SLAM supports the autonomous decisions required to operate in complex, dynamic warehouse operations with a positional accuracy of ±10 mm. Together with AMR Studio, this creates a versatile system that can adapt when a warehouse or production floor layout changes. Certified to the latest ISO and ANSI safety standards, Flexley Stack F712 can safely operate at speeds of up to 1.7 m/s while loaded.
