Pramac/BlueBotics at the Logimat 2024
Robots for dynamic environments
Pramac has teamed up with BlueBotics, a Swiss specialist in autonomous navigation, to launch its first range of mobile robotic solutions under the X-ACT brand.
Pramac partners with BlueBotics to bring new ANT-controlled mobile robots to market. BlueBotics will provide the ANT navigation technology and fleet manager software for Pramac's new X-ACT mobile logistics robot line. Three X-ACT mobile robots are currently available under the new business unit, called Lifter Mobile Robotics.
Federico Piersimoni, Business Unit Manager of Pramac's Material Handling Division, reports: "ANT navigation is accurate and robust, requires minimal infrastructure changes when installing the robots on site, and its ANT server fleet manager is as powerful as it gets. This means that our X-ACT robots can be moved intelligently and safely in dynamic environments, regardless of the size or shape of the load and without deadlocks."
Pramac will be at Logimat with its new Lifter Mobile Robotics business unit on stand #10C05 in Hall 10. Visitors to the BlueBotics booth #B2009, Hall 6, can also experience a multi-brand demonstration of mobile robots.
