Seegrid's payload versatility claimed as major leap

US-headquartered Seegrid Corporation is claiming the payload versatility of its forklifts to now accommodate awkwardly sized or shaped payloads represents “a major leap forward in autonomous forklift technology”. 

Seegrid, which provides autonomous mobile robot (AMR) solutions for palletised material handling, says its forklifts “are uniquely equipped to handle the most payloads in the modern manufacturing industry”.

The company states its forklifts and AMRs are able to handle “standard pallets to customer-specific forkables—any pallet or payload intended to be handled with a fork truck—with high variation in shape, size, and material composition”. 

“Seegrid’s payload-agnostic approach enables its autonomous lift trucks to excel in a wide range of mission-critical applications, from put-away and parts-to-line workflows to fully autonomous buffer management and now, increasingly, feeding fixed automation cells,” the company says.

Seegrid’s RS1 and CS1 autonomous forklifts have been developed to recognise payload positions, generate and adjust its path using algorithms and execute the planned path. 

Current deployment of AMRs includes payloads ranging from 30x30 inch bins for small-part picking and replenishment, 48x40 inch standard pallets as well as 62x96, 96x78, and 96x96 inch custom payloads.

“Our customers face real-world complexity that goes beyond textbook automation,” said David Griffin, chief sales officer at Seegrid. “What sets Seegrid apart is our ability to help them automate safely and reliably—no matter how unique or variable their payloads are. 

“We’re not just handling pallets; we’re mastering the art of dynamic payload movement with the most adaptive, intelligent technology on the market.”
