Waltham, Mass. — Logic Robotics, a developer of autonomous, data-driven logistics solutions, has released the Logic Pallet, a multifacility mobile robot engineered for logistics and material handling across industries. Logic Pallet is designed to automate and unify the movement of goods between and within facilities.
Currently in production and made in America, the 48-inch by 40-inch Logic Pallet is built to handle boxed consumer goods and food as a replacement for traditional pallets and forklifts. It has a payload capacity of 2,000 lbs. (907 kg), 160-hour battery life and autonomous functionality from origin point to vehicle transloading, said Logic.
Unlike conventional shipping pallets, the Logic Pallet is a self-driving, self-loading and self-unloading robotic platform. It functions as an in-facility shuttle for various standard-sized pallets, supporting automated movement to storage, pick and retrieval positions, maximizing warehouse density and operator productivity, said Logic.
Designed for versatility, the Logic Pallet supports high-density, aisleless storage in order to deliver up to three times the storage capacity of traditional warehouse configurations, said the manufacturer. The Logic Pallet travels at a velocity of 2.2 mph (1 m/s). Orchestrated by LINK, Logic’s AI-integrated warehouse operating system, Logic Pallets optimize real-time storage and retrieval in any shaped space.
With autonomous stacking, return for reuse and advanced self-navigation capabilities, the Logic Pallet reduces operational downtime, labor dependency and waste, said Logic. It also features a patented weight-based inventory management system for on-demand cycle counting, along with automated item recognition via Item Master to provide real-time inventory insight.
By fully automating functions like consolidation, deconsolidation and cross-docking, the Logic Pallet streamlines inbound and outbound logistics, unlocking faster, safer and more cost-efficient operations, said Logic. Rapid goods-to-person shuttle functionality enables quicker picking and order fulfillment, added the company. Logic has the ability to load or unload a full trailer in five minutes.
The Logic Pallet is Logic’s flagship product and the foundation for its expanding robotic fleet.
