Manufacturers have achieved a return on investment with AMR robots in just 1-2 years
Maybe it’s time to rethink warehouse logistics and material handling.
Research shows that material handling can equal up to 25% of manufacturing labor costs and 15% of overall manufacturing costs. Plus, up to 50% of all workers’ compensation claims are related to manual material handling activities.
As a result, manufacturers are using artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomous mobile robot (AMR) solutions to move materials on their factory floor faster, cheaper and safer.
Since 2015, OTTO® AMR robots and autonomous forklifts have helped companies generate a fast return on investment. This includes decreasing labor by up to 20%, saving more than $1 million annually, and achieving an internal rate of revenue of over 50%.

Billion-dollar consumer goods company chooses AMR robots
Four material handling alternatives were considered
Our autonomous mobile robot fleet can tackle material handling jobs up to 4200 lbs.
A global consumer goods company needed a flexible, reliable and safer solution to improve warehouse logistics across two enormous facilities.
Before the material handling solution was selected, AMR robots, conveyors, forklifts and automated guided vehicles (AGVs) were all evaluated for productivity and costs.
The company discovered OTTO AMR robots were more flexible than conveyors, safer than traditional forklifts, more adaptable than AGVs and the most cost-effective solution. So, AMR robots were selected for both sites. And a positive ROI was delivered in less than two years.
