Turkish-headquartered autonomous mobile robot (AMR) developer for materials handling applications, Milvus Robotics, has released its SEIT F1500S stacker-type fork AMR.

Milvus, which also has an office in Atlanta, says the F1500S is the “fastest forklift AMR in the market to effortlessly navigate narrow aisles and busy corridors, performing end-to-end, high-accuracy cycles without requiring fixed infrastructure like floor markers or magnetic tape”.

It boasts a powerful 3,500 lbs. (1,500 kg) payload capacity with a lift height of 8.86 ft. (2.7m).

Described as a next-gen solution, the F1500S has been designed to replace manual, error-prone workflows with a safer, more predictable autonomous system within warehousing and manufacturing environments.

“Designed for fast deployment and high-mix production environments, the F1500S delivers operational flexibility, precision, and reliable material transport, enabling manufacturers to streamline intralogistics while maintaining production agility,” Milvus states.

“The F1500S is designed for complex, flexible tasks, including automated floor-to-shelf or shelf-to-floor transfers, ensuring reliable pickup, transport, and precise positioning within warehouse systems for ground pick pallet types.”

Milvus says the AMR is also capable of handling custom load formats and specialised load carriers, allowing it to be integrated easily with diverse operational needs.

The F1500S features sophisticated spherical 3D perception architecture and LiDAR-camera fusion technology to precisely detect pallet types, position, and condition with high precision. 

The system identifies subtle misalignment or structural variations, enabling consistent, high-accuracy cycles despite pallet variability or human-driven workflow operations, while a dedicated fork sensor monitors the space behind the load in real time, detecting objects or human movement before each approach and lift.

Samil Ozden, CEO of Milvus Robotics says: “The SEIT F1500S provides true autonomy to warehouse and industrial environments where aisles are busy and workflows change constantly, offering an immediately deployable path toward fully autonomous material handling”.

Milvus Robotics operates globally and has robots deployed in more than 20 countries.
