Taking material handling to a new level of efficiency!
Intralogistics System for Smart Factory
Get to know more about our AFORMIC Intralogistics system that integrates technology in manufacturing & logistic industries.
Smart Factory Fleet Management Package & Customized Mobile Robots Solution tailored to the needs of your facility.
Our Aformic intralogistics system consists of an advanced fleet management system - Qursor and a fleet of proprietary Formica autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).
The goal of our solution is to increase automation, optimize industrial processes, boost efficiency and productivity, and reduce reliance on human labor in industrial processes. By using advanced technologies and data-driven decision-making, we create more efficient autonomous manufacturing and logistics systems.
Our flexible and comprehensive solution is tailored to the needs and the character of your facility. Our AMRs provide efficient, and unmanned transportation of any load, thus maximizing the efficiency of logistics operations in manufacturing plants and warehouses, enabling more responsive and agile production processes.
Formica AMRs are controlled by the Qursor system, which significantly improves work efficiency through streamlined task management.
Savings through automation
Profits
Improved efficiency
Reduced labor costs
Real-time monitoring
Increased safety
Improved management
Convenient scalability
Virtual launch for real-life benefits
To estimate the real costs of the physical implementation of the system and return on investment (ROI) we do system simulation & virtual commissioning using software tools e.g. Plant Simulation. As part of virtual commissioning, the system mimics full vehicle traffic and simulates speeds depending on the load. For us, digital mapping of the system’s work environment and processes is of key importance in the process of modeling routes or robot design.
Intelligent control system
Complete software platform with factory fleet management package
QURSOR is a fleet management system that deals with task allocation, path planning, navigation assistance, or system performance & KPI check, which enables the implementation of autonomous mobile robots in smart warehousing and manufacturing environments.
The smooth incorporation of the QURSOR into the factory software system allows for effective management of AGVs and AMRs from multiple vendors via its workflow manager and fleet orchestrator (including other vehicles monitored by RTLS).
The software can be incorporated with Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and Warehouse Management System (WMS).

FORMICA always on, smart robots ready to roll
We offer highly developed Formica robots that use advanced sensors and mapping technology to adjust real-time maps of the environment and modify their paths in response to changes in the environment, such as obstacles or new paths. Formica AMRs are tailor-made robots designed to meet the customer’s needs. Our robots provide answers to the growing demands of the market!
Take advantage of the Formica robots’ family to effectively manage logistics throughout your production chain. Increase the efficiency of your transportation and transform your supply chain operations to ensure smooth production with our AMRs. Customize the design of AMRs to suit specific types of material handling equipment like racks, pallet containers or any containers of non-standard shapes, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance.
Natural navigation
We equipped our robots with functionalities to ensure the highest safety in your work environment. AMR Formica robots can move in real-time mapping, adapt to changes in dynamic environments and precisely detect obstacles in time. All of this is thanks to carefully selected and thoughtfully designed equipment.
Real-time mapping
Adaptability
Improved accuracy
Black-box
stores AMR operation data for troubleshooting, optimization, safety, and analyses
Ultrasounds
support the work of safety scanners by detecting objects above and below the scanning line
E-stops
quickly and safely stop the robot in case of an emergency
stop the AMR in the event of a collision with an obstacle when scanners are not active or the obstacle is located beyond the scanning line
Safety bumpers
projects a blue light onto the floor to increase safety and visibility
Blue spot
used to detect objects in a danger field of the vehicle (depending on many parameters such as speed, load, etc.), which significantly reduces the risk of collisions and other accidents. In addition to the safety function, the microScan3 scanners act as measuring devices for the navigation system, providing information about the environment and enabling current updates and reliable map navigation.
Safety laser scanners (LIDAR)
emits appropriate soundtracks to indicate incoming AMR, alarms, AMR component movement, traffic, etc.
Buzzer
precise distance measurement supporting the operation of safety scanners
3D camera
Touchscreen
for direct access to the device and manual control of individual machine elements
serve as status indicators, alarms, warnings, and directional displays
LED panels
To ensure full flexibility and provide easily adaptation to new tasks and changing environments we delivered Formica robots with a flexible coupling system. Pin System, Lift Table System, Roller Conveyor System are only examples which can be implemented. All in order to suit your needs and meet your requirements.
Automate your internal supply chain with our family of Formica AMRs. Get to know more details about AMR Formica 1 and AMR Formica 2.
