MiR (Mobile Industrial Robots) MiR100 (Standard)

Overview

The MiR100 from MiR (Mobile Industrial Robots) is a state-of-the-art autonomous mobile robot (AMR) designed for efficient point-to-point transport and streamlined goods-to-person workflows. This versatile robot is engineered to seamlessly integrate into dynamic environments, enhancing operational efficiency and safety.

The MiR100 diligently builds and maintains a live map of your facility, enabling it to plan safe and optimal routes while intelligently navigating around people and obstacles. It excels in executing crucial missions such as putaway, replenishment, and lineside delivery. Its advanced fleet software provides comprehensive traffic control, manages charging schedules, and balances work queues across diverse workcells. Integration is straightforward, with buyers typically connecting the MiR100 with existing WMS-ERP systems via standard APIs or middleware, allowing missions to be triggered by various inputs like scanners, PLCs, or pick screens.

Key Features

• **Autonomous Navigation:** Builds and maintains a live map of the facility, allowing for independent operation and safe route planning.
• **Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance:** Intelligently navigates around people and static/dynamic obstacles in real-time.
• **WMS/ERP Integration:** Seamlessly connects with existing Warehouse Management (WMS) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems via standard APIs or middleware for mission orchestration and data exchange.
• **Point-to-Point Transport:** Optimizes logistics by automating the movement of goods between specified locations.
• **Goods-to-Person Workflows:** Enhances efficiency in picking and kitting operations by delivering items directly to human operators.
• **Fleet Management Software:** Provides capabilities for centralized traffic control, charging management, and work-queue balancing across multiple robots and mixed workcells.
• **Flexible Mission Triggering:** Tasks can be initiated from various sources including scanners, PLCs, or pick screens, offering operational flexibility.

Technical Specifications

The MiR100's robust design and advanced features are built upon a foundation of specific technical parameters. For the most precise and up-to-date information, always refer to the official MiR100 datasheet from Mobile Industrial Robots.

Applications

The MiR100 is highly versatile and ideally suited for a wide range of internal logistics applications across various industries:

• **Point-to-Point Material Transport:** Automating the movement of raw materials, work-in-progress (WIP), and finished goods between production lines, assembly areas, and warehouses.
• **Goods-to-Person Fulfillment:** Optimizing order picking, kitting, and staging processes by efficiently bringing required items directly to human operators.
• **Automated Putaway:** Streamlining the process of moving incoming inventory from receiving areas to designated storage locations.
• **Replenishment Services:** Ensuring timely and consistent delivery of components, tools, and consumables to production lines or workstations, preventing bottlenecks.
• **Lineside Delivery:** Providing on-demand or scheduled supply of parts and materials directly to manufacturing or assembly lines.
• **General Logistics Support:** Reducing manual labor for repetitive and non-value-added transportation tasks across the facility, freeing up personnel for higher-value activities.

Benefits

Implementing the MiR100 into your operations offers a multitude of strategic and operational advantages:

• **Higher Throughput:** Automating internal transport tasks leads to increased material flow and overall operational efficiency, boosting productivity.
• **Minimal Fixed Infrastructure:** Operates autonomously without the need for extensive permanent installations like wires, magnets, or dedicated guide paths, significantly reducing setup costs and complexity.
• **Faster Layout Reconfiguration:** Adaptable to changes in facility layouts and workflows without requiring major re-engineering or costly downtime.
• **Seamless Scalability:** Easily expand your fleet from initial pilot projects to multi-area deployments by adding more robots without interrupting ongoing operations.
• **Enhanced Safety:** Advanced navigation and real-time obstacle avoidance features reduce the risk of accidents involving human-operated vehicles or manual material handling.
• **Optimized Resource Utilization:** Frees human workers from repetitive, strenuous, or low-value transport tasks, allowing them to focus on more complex and skilled work.
• **Quick Return on Investment (ROI):** The combination of increased efficiency, reduced operational costs, and improved flexibility often leads to a rapid and measurable return on investment.
