More and more companies are opting for mobile robotics solutions, such as AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) or AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles), to automate their internal logistics. However, before making the investment decision, some questions always arise:
- How many robots are really necessary?
- What routes should they follow?
- Will the corridors collapse at peak hours?
- How will they interact with operators, forklifts or workstations?
- Where is it best to locate charging stations?
Answering these questions accurately is essential. An arbitrary estimate can lead to an oversized investment or an insufficient fleet that does not meet the real needs of the operation.
Simulation as a decision tool
At Alhona we take your operation to the virtual world. We digitally model the flow of people, media and materials in your plant or warehouse to help you make smarter decisions.
Thanks to our simulation solutions, it is possible to analyze:
- Fleet responsiveness
- The impact on daily operations
- ROI and optimal sizing
- Congestion or conflict points
- Future growth scenarios
Decisions based on data, not on assumptions
The advantage of working with simulation is clear: it enables data-driven, more efficient and more profitable decision making. So, when the time comes to implement mobile robotics or size the number of operators, you will know that you are choosing the right solution, with the exact number of resources and a validated operation.
