AUTOMATION SYSTEMS

LG CLOi CarryBot will be officially launched in the United States at the MODEX 2024 trade show . LG ’ s booth in the Georgia World Congress Centre also will preview LG ’ s P5G , the company ’ s private 5G technology under development for dedicated robot networks supporting reliable , stable performance . Development of the new LG P5G network is leveraging the vast technical resources and deep expertise of global innovator LG Electronics .

“ The new LG CLOi CarryBot can immediately begin solving warehouse inefficiencies by providing on-time movements and consistent , reliable operation that allows workers to stay within their zones and increase productivity ,” said Tom Bingham , Senior Director , LG Business Solutions USA . “ CLOi CarryBot offers seamless package movement and delivery within a warehouse and eliminates the need for workers to physically transport packages .”

Having already launched autonomous robots that transport products , guide customers , deliver food and beverages , and provide information in commercial settings , LG is now expanding its robotic line to “ help provide true solutions for warehouses of any size by reducing lead times and enhancing efficiency ,” Bingham added .

Featuring LG ’ s advanced AMR platform for autonomous navigation , the latest WiFi capabilities , ergonomic hardware design , an intuitive fleet management system and an efficiency-boosting material control system that optimises order distribution and scheduling , the LG CLOi CarryBot can streamline product movement and adjust to real-world situations while reducing physical strain on workers .

With a top speed of 2.7 miles per hour , a typical runtime of 18.5 hours and autonomous dock charging in six hours , LG CLOi CarryBot is a powerhouse for delivering small-to-medium packages across virtually any distance . These powerful hardware capabilities combine with cuttingedge software and Machine Learning for seamless integration with various facets of Warehouse Management Systems , including material control , fleet management and robot management systems .

Interfacing with material control systems enables smart order grouping , picking item categorisation , order information distribution and total picking cooperation support including notations of shortages or skipped items . Fleet management system integration provides pathplanning for multi-AMR users , intelligent AMR fleet navigation and prioritisation , traffic balancing and detouring , obstacle avoidance and automated return for dock charging . On the backend , the robot management system provides managers instant access to location info , AMR status , alerts for abnormal interactions and statistical data to support decision making .

The LG CLOi CarryBot can be programmed for virtually any floor plan with practically unlimited pickup and delivery points , enabling precise navigation , multi-point deliveries and AI-enhanced decisionmaking that streamlines deliveries when multiple AMRs are servicing a single zone . At the end of its ‘ shift ,’ or when power is low , the LG CLOi CarryBot can automatically return to a designated multi- AMR charging dock . �
