AMR – Intelligent warehouse mobility
Your warehouse automation partner
Our WMS software integrates with Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to transform your logistics and move your company toward the warehouse of the future. By connecting Fox4WorkTM to AMRs, you intelligently automate goods flows, reduce manual labor and increase warehouse operational efficiency.
AMR: the revolution in warehouse mobility
Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are not just automated carts: they are true intelligent partners capable of moving autonomously and safely within your facilities.
Smart navigation
AMRs use digital maps of your warehouse and navigation algorithms to move freely. They are not limited to predefined paths and can calculate optimal routes while avoiding obstacles. Laser guidance and camera vision allow them to operate in dynamic environments without human intervention.
Flexibility
Unlike older AGVs (automated guided vehicles) that required fixed infrastructure, AMRs adapt easily to changes in the warehouse. They can be reprogrammed or reconfigured for new tasks in just a few clicks, without major structural changes to the premises. Adding a new robot to the fleet or changing an internal delivery route is quick and simple, supporting your evolving needs.
Collaborative safety
Equipped with sensors, AMRs detect the presence of people, forklifts, or other machines and adjust their speed and trajectory to avoid incidents. Their operation is therefore fully secure. These robots cooperate with humans: by handling strenuous or risky tasks, they reduce accidents and improve operators’ working conditions.
From storage to order picking, including receiving and shipping, these collaborative robots optimize every goods flow for greater speed, reliability and safety.
Simple and quick to deploy
Fox4Work™: seamless integration with AMRs
Fox4WorkTM connects directly to your autonomous mobile robots to orchestrate end-to-end flow automation.
Real-time fleet orchestration
Our WMS creates and plans missions (pallet transfers, bin delivery to picking stations, shuttles to shipping) and coordinates routes to avoid traffic conflicts and maximize throughput.
Dynamic allocation and bottleneck prevention.
The fleet management module continuously monitors the position, battery level, payload and availability of each AMR. Tasks are assigned to the most relevant AMR (proximity, status, mission priority), reducing empty runs and eliminating bottlenecks in critical areas.
Simple and fast integration
Without transforming your infrastructure, AMRs fit into your existing setup (initial mapping, no rails or beacons). Fox4WorkTM communicates via Wi-Fi/Ethernet with the robots' navigation systems; within a few weeks, the solution is operational in a first area, and can then scale by adding robots or new use cases.
Real-time supervision and control
A control interface unifies the operational view: mission status, AMR locations, queues and alerts. Managers adjust priorities (rush orders, transport urgencies) and replan on the fly while maintaining full traceability of movements.
Automatic synchronization & traceability
Robots execute the orders issued by Fox4Work™; the WMS instantly updates stock, locations and task statuses. Each mission is time-stamped, logged and linked to logistics documents (order, parcel, pallet), providing a reliable, actionable view of operations.
Measurable gains from dock to shipment
Key benefits of AMR automation
Connected to Fox4WorkTM, AMRs handle repetitive and time-consuming internal transports, follow the shortest routes safely and operate continuously. The result: less unnecessary walking for operators, fewer fatigue-related errors, smoother flows and real-time visibility into mission progress.
Beyond operational comfort, the impact is directly measurable: shorter cycle times, increased capacity without proportional hiring, and reduced handling and quality-related costs (misrouting, incidents). The fleet scales on demand (seasonal peaks, new lines), ensuring progressive ROI and sustainable performance.
1
Reduced manual labor
By delegating repetitive and physically demanding transport tasks to robots, you free your teams for higher value-added activities. Operators no longer have to walk long distances or lift heavy loads daily. AMRs handle these movements, reducing fatigue and injury risks.
Your employees can therefore focus on supervision, quality control or customer service, improving both their safety and productivity.
2
Improved logistics efficiency
Available 24/7, autonomous mobile robots work tirelessly without loss of performance or lapses in attention. They speed up the movement of goods from point A to point B by always taking the shortest and safest path.
Operations that were once sequential can now be parallelized, resulting in reduced cycle times and increased order processing throughput.
In addition, robots’ precision when executing tasks reduces picking or transport errors, making your processes more reliable.
3
Cost optimization
Automating internal flows with AMRs results in significant savings. On one hand, you reduce labor costs associated with non-value-added handling tasks, and on the other hand you lower costs linked to human errors. Improved productivity allows you to handle higher volumes without additional staff, increasing capacity without raising fixed costs.
In addition, robot reliability limits material damage and operational downtime.
4
Scalability and operational flexibility
AMRs provide a scalable and agile automation solution. You can start with a limited number of robots and gradually expand the fleet as your business grows or in anticipation of seasonal peaks. Conversely, during slowdowns, unused robots can be redeployed elsewhere or temporarily put on standby at no significant cost.
This flexibility allows you to adjust your logistics resources in real time, whereas traditional systems (fixed conveyors, manual carts) are far less adaptable.
The absence of heavy infrastructure changes allows your warehouse to evolve quickly with new stock configurations or product flows.
5
Real-time management & global visibility
Every robot movement is tracked and recorded in Fox4WorkTM, giving you full visibility over operations. Through the WMS dashboard, you can see in real time where goods are, how picking is progressing and the status of each robot.
This real-time transparency facilitates rapid decision-making and priority adjustments when needed.
In addition, the collected data (travel time, robot utilization rate, etc.) feeds reports and analyses to continuously improve your processes.
