AMR / AGV Integration

Applied Integration deploys Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) that work reliably in real production environments—not just controlled demos. We design, integrate and commission mobile robotic systems that move materials safely, efficiently and fully aligned with your processes, layouts and automation infrastructure.

What We Do

Concept & Solution Design

Turn operational goals—throughput, safety, labour reduction—into a practical AMR/AGV concept, fleet size and route strategy.

System Integration

Connect AMRs/AGVs to PLC/SCADA, MES, WMS and ERP so mobile robots operate as part of a coordinated production and logistics flow.

Traffic Management & Fleet Control

Set up missions, priorities, zoning and rules to prevent congestion, avoid deadlocks and maximise fleet efficiency.

Retrofit into Existing Sites

Introduce mobile robots into brownfield facilities while working around legacy equipment, manual processes and mixed traffic.

Safety & Compliance

Design scanners, speed zones, segregation and emergency stops in line with site rules and relevant safety standards.

Support, Optimisation & Expansion

Provide ongoing tuning, route optimisation and system expansion as layouts, demand and production flows evolve.

Technologies & Platforms

AMR & AGV Vendors

Experience across multiple OEMs and navigation methods including LiDAR, natural feature navigation, QR markers, magnetic tape and induction.

Control & Supervision

Fleet managers, mission controllers and traffic coordination layers integrated with plant SCADA dashboards.

Systems Integration

Interfaces to WMS, ERP and MES for order drops, inventory visibility, production triggers and KPI reporting.

Safety & Infrastructure

Integrated scanners, beacons, barriers and charging solutions forming a cohesive safety and operational framework.

Typical Applications

Inbound & Outbound Logistics

Automated pallet, carton and tote movement between goods-in, storage, picking, packing and despatch.

Line-Side Supply & Removal

Delivery of components, WIP and packaging materials to production lines, plus removal of finished goods and waste.

Warehousing & Distribution

Transport between storage areas, pick-faces, packing cells, consolidation and shipping.

Cleanroom & Controlled Environments

Repeatable, traceable movement in pharmaceutical, healthcare and electronics facilities.

Support to Fixed Automation

Mobile links between robot cells, conveyors, AS/RS systems and manual workstations.

How We Work

Requirements & Site Study

Flow analysis, constraints review and definition of success criteria.

Concept, Simulation & Proving

Validate fleet size, routes and traffic rules through modelling and simulation.

Detailed Design & Integration

Define interfaces, safety measures, missions and software configuration.

Installation & Commissioning

Deploy, tune and ramp up safely into live operation.

Training & Support

Train teams, provide documentation and deliver ongoing optimisation.
