Modular production logistics: The VARIO MOVE transport robot series

Short planning and commissioning times, fast delivery and flexible adaptation options: With the VARIO MOVE series of high-lift transport robots from ek robotics, MOBILE ROBOTS decisively supports the optimization of your intralogistic processes and goods transports.

As one of the leading manufacturers of automated guided vehicles (AGVs), ek robotics ensures greater efficiency, higher deadline accuracy and less transport damage in your intralogistics. As the leading integrator for autonomous mobile robotics, we at MOBILE ROBOTS are including the modular AMR series VARIO MOVE of our new partner in our portfolio, which is convincing in a wide range of industries.

Individually adaptable, the VARIO MOVE concept allows maximum flexibility in device design and navigation. Due to its modular and maintenance-friendly design as well as its practically high availability, the VARIO MOVE represents the next evolutionary stage of transport robots: the industrial trucks, which consist of a drive unit with a modular interface, can be configured as desired despite standardized components.

This means they can be adapted to your transport tasks with different chassis and equipped with different load handling attachments. The VARIO MOVE "modular system" consists of five defined lift masts, with which a transfer height of up to five metres can be achieved, as well as a wide variety of load handlings - from load forks and attachments to roller conveyors or chain conveyors.

Tailor-made high-tech intralogistics modular system from ek robotics

At MOBILE ROBOTS, we currently integrate the fully automatic VARIO MOVE high-lift transport robot in four different versions. What all VARIO MOVE AMR have in common is their reliable and maintenance-friendly use. The high-tech transport robots from ek robotics are equipped with an innovative Li-Ion energy system and are therefore designed as driverless transport systems for your production logistics for 24-hour use, 365 days a year. In principle, the VARIO MOVE models are suitable for all navigation systems and, as intelligent, networked autonomous transport robots, ensure your internal material flow.

In direct comparison to intralogistics solutions from the competition, the return on investment when using a VARIO MOVE AMR is very high. Thanks to long service intervals, the automated production logistics of ek robotics performs better than many autonomous series industrial trucks, especially in terms of operating costs. As the predominant means of transport of the future, driverless transport systems such as the VARIO MOVE will soon represent a key technology of Industry 4.0 by guaranteeing the necessary flexibility in the material flow in intelligent factories across all industries.
