Autonomous: AGV / AMR

Smarter mobile automation. Safer floor navigation. Stronger fleet performance.

From hand tools to smart factories, OTS has powered manufacturing progress for more than 50 years, helping industry leaders adapt, integrate, and thrive through every era of change.

Solution focus

We help manufacturers build safer, smarter, and more efficient operations by delivering integrated solutions across every stage of production. Our specialized engineering in autonomous floor systems focuses directly on self-navigating floor units, autonomous AGVs, and autonomous AMRs to optimize material flow, eliminate manual transit bottlenecks, and drive continuous facility velocity.

Process Optimization & Fleet Integration

True facility automation transitions traditional material handling into connected, data-enabled smart factories. Moving past manual forklift operations and rigid conveyors, we co-create tailored mobile robotic frameworks engineered to maximize floor efficiency, safely manage heavy payloads, and deliver absolute material routing predictability.

  • Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGVs): Heavy-payload self-navigating floor units engineered to execute fixed-path material deliveries, container transport, and predictable pallet movement cycle after cycle.
  • Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs): Highly agile, self-navigating mobile units equipped with real-time obstacle avoidance and dynamic rerouting primitives to manage complex, non-linear assembly floor paths.
  • Automated Material Flow & Integration: Complete end-to-end synchronization linking mobile fleets with automated part-bins, conveyors, structural racking profiles, and warehouse management frameworks.
  • Heavy Payload & Destuffing Systems: Ergonomic material flow attachments and autonomous cart interfaces optimized for rapid payload unloading, container sorting, and line-side replenishment.

Documented Return on Investment (ROI)

Our solutions-engineering approach isolates critical material transit pain points and develops a defined return on investment that captures the exact monetary and safety impact on your facility's operations.

  • Throughput Boost: Accelerated material transfer cycle times, minimized line-side wait times, and optimized bulk component sorting velocities.
  • Safety Gains: Slashed workplace ergonomic strain injuries and eliminated high-risk manual forklift traffic by automating heavy container unloading and path transport.
  • Quality Metrics: Heightened tracking precision, eliminated part transit damage, and minimized material misplacement rates via automated positioning control.
  • Uptime Extension: Drastically reduced machinery breakdown hours and transport delays through robust fleet engineering and smart predictive maintenance systems.

OUR OTS AUTOMATION PARTNERS:

Autonomous floor cleaning solutions provide consistent, efficient cleaning of manufacturing, warehouse, and commercial facilities with minimal operator involvement. Advanced navigation and intelligent automation help reduce labor requirements while improving cleanliness, safety, and facility productivity.

Autonomous forklifts automate pallet movement, transport, stacking, and material handling throughout manufacturing and warehouse environments. Intelligent navigation and integrated safety technologies help reduce labor requirements, improve material flow, and increase operational efficiency.

Autonomous transfer carts automate the movement of materials, components, and work-in-process throughout manufacturing and warehouse environments. Flexible navigation and intelligent controls help reduce manual transport, improve material flow, and increase operational efficiency.

Autonomous tuggers transport multiple carts, racks, and materials along repetitive routes throughout manufacturing and warehouse environments. Intelligent navigation helps automate milk runs and line-side delivery while reducing manual transport and improving material flow.

Cold and outdoor AGV/AMR solutions automate material movement in challenging environments including cold storage, freezers, loading areas, and outdoor facilities. Ruggedized designs and intelligent navigation provide reliable autonomous transport where conventional mobile robots may not perform.

Narrow-aisle autonomous vehicles maximize warehouse space by transporting, storing, and retrieving pallets within confined aisle environments. Intelligent navigation and precise positioning improve storage density, material flow, and warehouse efficiency while reducing manual forklift operation.

High-bay autonomous forklifts automate pallet storage and retrieval at elevated rack heights within warehouses and distribution centers. Precise navigation and intelligent controls improve storage density, material flow, and productivity while reducing reliance on manual forklift operations.
