In high-volume intralogistics, downtime rarely results from a single catastrophic failure. It is the accumulation of marginal losses. ENRX and DETO Automation deliver an integrated architecture that eliminates physical wear and digital instability at the source.

In automated warehouses, those marginal losses appear as:

  • A corroded charging contact.
  • An AGV waiting at a fixed charging station.
  • Latency fluctuations on a shared Wi-Fi network during peak traffic.
  • Integration delays between separate vendors.

Individually manageable. Collectively limiting.

Across multi-shift operations and expanding fleets, these inefficiencies reduce availability and constrain scalability.

In many facilities, vehicles must leave the operational flow to recharge. They travel to fixed charging stations, wait in queue, or occupy dedicated charging rooms. To compensate, fleets are often oversized — adding vehicles simply to maintain throughput during charging downtime.

When power delivery and communication are sourced independently, integration becomes a structural vulnerability.

ENRX and DETO address this at architectural level — aligning energy transfer and industrial communication within one coordinated system.

 

Eliminating Physical Interfaces: The Contactless Power Layer

Mechanical charging interfaces introduce wear components into AGV and AMR fleets. Contacts degrade, connectors fail and sliding interfaces require periodic replacement. In sealed or hygiene-sensitive environments, exposed charging contacts can also introduce operational limitations.

ENRX removes the physical interface entirely.

 

ENRMOVE – Wireless charging for mobile fleets

ENRMOVE uses inductive power transfer: energy is transmitted contactless between a ground-installed primary unit and a vehicle-mounted secondary unit, without any exposed conductive surfaces.

AGVs, AMRs and electric forklifts charge automatically during short functional stops within the operational flow.

There are no exposed contacts, no plug-in handling and no wear-prone charging components. Vehicles no longer need to leave production to reach dedicated charging rooms or wait in queue.

Charging becomes embedded within movement itself.

 

PWRMOVE – Contactless power for rail-guided systems

For rail-mounted and fixed-route transport systems, PWRMOVE delivers continuous inductive power without sliding contacts or carbon brushes.

Unlike conventional conductive solutions, where mechanical contact both limits velocity and introduces wear, PWRMOVE transfers energy entirely contactlessly. There are no contact shoes, no friction surfaces and no components that degrade with speed.

This changes the performance envelope of the system.

Transport velocity is no longer constrained by mechanical interfaces. Power remains continuous regardless of travel speed. Friction-induced degradation disappears from the energy layer, and maintenance exposure is significantly reduced.

The result is a rail-based transport infrastructure designed for sustained high throughput and long operating cycles — without the mechanical limitations of contact-based systems.

ENRX provides the contactless power layer, engineered for high-speed, high-availability industrial transport.

 

Predictable Industrial Communication

Modern fleets depend on precise timing between vehicle control, charging events and fleet management systems.

In many facilities, this communication runs over shared Wi-Fi networks alongside scanners, tablets and corporate traffic. As network load increases, latency becomes variable. Coordination degrades.

DETO Automation provides a dedicated industrial communication layer through SMART ANTENNA technology based on the DECT NR+ standard.

Unlike shared Wi-Fi, DECT NR+ operates independently in a protected frequency band designed for industrial applications.

It delivers deterministic communication timing under heavy load, stable low-latency performance and controlled wireless behaviour independent of corporate traffic. Charging coordination and vehicle movement remain synchronised.

For automation engineers, determinism is not a feature — it is a requirement.

Communication remains consistent, even in dense, high-activity environments.

Integrated Architecture and Diagnostic Clarity

Many automation projects combine separate charging systems, wireless infrastructure and control platforms. Each may function independently, but integration introduces complexity.

Commissioning extends.
Interfaces multiply.
Diagnostics span multiple suppliers.

When faults occur, determining root cause becomes time-consuming:

  • Is it a charging fault?
  • A communication drop?
  • A control system delay?

ENRX and DETO Automation integrate power transfer, communication and system logic from the outset.

When power and data are aligned within one architecture, diagnostic visibility improves. Instead of tracing issues across fragmented systems, operators gain a clearer path to root cause analysis.

The system provides a structured, unified diagnostic perspective — reducing ambiguity and accelerating resolution.

This reduces:

  • Interface risk
  • Commissioning complexity
  • Cross-vendor troubleshooting
  • Long-term integration uncertainty 

One architecture. One point of responsibility.

 

Operational Impact in High-Duty Environments

In multi-shift distribution centres and automated production logistics, marginal inefficiencies accumulate quickly. Manual charging, wear-prone interfaces and non-deterministic communication reduce effective capacity.

By aligning a contactless power layer with deterministic industrial connectivity, ENRX and DETO Automation increase fleet availability, reduce maintenance exposure and improve diagnostic clarity — creating a scalable foundation for high-density automation.

Charging occurs within operation.
Communication timing remains controlled.
System behaviour remains consistent under load.
