Robots

• Robots handle repetitive tasks such as picking, packing and moving goods
• direct FMS controls tasks based on assignments, prioritisation and material flow
• Integrated with transport and other equipment in the facility
• direct FMS as WCS controls task allocation and coordination
• Coordinated task execution across systems and equipment

Automation with robots improves flow and enables more precise handling of goods. With direct FMS from AMS AS, robots are controlled based on tasks and material-flow demand, ensuring automatic handling without manual intervention.

Free up capacity by reducing manual tasks

Robots take over tasks such as picking, packing and handling, reducing the need for manual effort. This ensures stable execution and better utilisation of available capacity. Robots perform tasks with consistent precision and speed, delivering uniform quality and predictable handling.

direct FMS as WCS controls your robots

direct FMS is a Warehouse Control System that manages robot tasks based on material flow, assignments and prioritisation. The system communicates directly with robots, sending instructions in real time.

Tasks are generated based on operational needs, and robots execute them without manual intervention. This ensures correct sequencing and timing within the flow. A typical example is palletising, where direct FMS instructs the robot on packing patterns based on order, product type and downstream transport.

Precision and coordinated execution

Robots perform tasks with high precision and repeatability. direct FMS coordinates robot operations with transport and other equipment, ensuring the correct sequencing of handling and movement. Multiple tasks can be performed in parallel, and the system ensures optimal resource utilisation.

With robots controlled by direct FMS from AMS AS , you achieve automated handling based on material flow and demand, improving capacity utilisation and operational predictability.
