Manufacturing Outlook eZine Features ForwardX VP Sales Nic Temple Before MODEX 2020

The February issue of Manufacturing Outlook eZine recently featured Nic Temple, Vice President of Sales for the Americas at ForwardX Robotics. The vision-based autonomous mobile robot technology will be on display during MODEX 2020 at Booth 1207. According to Temple, while there will be many AMRs on display at MODEX 2020, only ForwardX provides Visual Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) which fully integrate with WMS, MES, and ERP via Robot Computing Systems.

MODEX 2020 will also feature ForwardX’s Edge/Cloud based architecture. At the edge, Robot Computing System (RCS) includes the multi-sensor fusion, computer vision-based deep learning, local path planning ability based on V-SLAM and reinforcement learning. In the cloud resides the Robotic Process Manager (RPM). The RPM includes a multi-agent cluster scheduling system. It receives tasks from operators, such as Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning).

The robots holistically assign global tasks and intelligent paths for the robots, greatly increasing efficiency, improving throughput and reducing downtime.
