Kanban replenishment and milk runs

Supply your line and reduce labor by more than 50%.

Eliminate fixed milk runs, save your material handlers for high-value tasks, and improve safety by automating travel from supermarkets to the line.

An operator loads materials onto their appropriate carts and programs the Vecna AMR with its delivery destinations.
The AMR autonomously navigates to its first delivery location and alerts nearby workers that it has arrived and is ready to be unloaded.
Upon completion of swapping materials, the local operator releases the robot to its next delivery location.
Once all deliveries are complete, the AMR will navigate back to the supermarket for its next mission.

Work in progress

Move materials quickly and safely

Autonomously move components from station to station while reducing materials handlers by over 50%. Vecna cuts traffic while improving safety and productivity with dynamic routing that optimizes routes and drop off locations based on real-time availability.

The Vecna system receives a pickup mission from an operator and dispatches an AMR.
The AMR picks up and scans the pallet, then travels the best route to drop off the pallet to the end-of-aisle or outbound staging.
The system updates, and the AMR process to the next mission.

Cross docking and sortation

Flow freely

Tap into the power of route-free navigation, and keep your dock-to-dock transportation running like clockwork. Vecna’s flexible navigation allows many robots to move many goods, to many locations safely and quickly.

Vecna’s system is given a pickup mission to clear pallets from the receiving doc and dispatches an AMR.
The AMR autonomously picks the first pallet and plots the most efficient route to its P&D location, avoiding obstacles along the way.
The AMR drops the pallet to the appropriate outbound staging lane for final shipping.
