Description:
2023 RBR50 LogoTusk Robotics designed a low-profile AMR/AGV pallet mover that fits completely underneath a pallet. The Tusk Robotics AMR has a smaller profile than any other pallet moving AMR on the market. It can lift 1200 kg (3,215 lbs) of payload in aisles a minimum of 1.7 m wide (5.5 ft). The robot uses SLAM or QR code navigation making it an ideal solution for a unit load ASRS pallet storage array.

Analysis:
Tusk Robots, developed a unique AMR/AGV pallet mover with a low profile that enables the robot to move completely underneath a pallet, lift the pallet, and then transport the pallet to a new destination. With a vehicle outline slightly larger than its payload, it can operate in high-density storage areas not accessible by normal fork trucks.

The vehicle is designed to work primarily with euro pallets. It can lift pallet loads up to 1200 kg (3,215 lbs), and operate effectively in aisles where the pallets are separated by no less than 1.7 m (5.5 ft). The vehicle is capable of both SLAM-based navigation or QR code-based navigation. The system is useful for unit load ASRS-style storage of pallets. - Mike Oitzman
