Revolutionize Material Handling Processes with Robotic Mobility Systems
Melton Machine & Control Company creates advanced automation solutions that reshape how materials move through manufacturing floors. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are not just tools; they’re a leap forward in operational efficiency and precision for material handling processes.
With more than 55 years of experience in automation, Melton delivers customized AGV and AMR systems that integrate seamlessly into your production lines. Whether you’re looking to reduce manual labor, increase efficiency and throughput, or enhance safety, our team of experts designs systems tailored to your needs, ensuring your business stays ahead in a competitive manufacturing landscape.
Material Handling Systems Built to Your Workflow
Material handling is a critical component of any production environment, and robotic vehicles offer a smarter way to carry out this essential process. AGVs and AMRs transport materials, navigate complex pathways, and manage logistical workflows with minimal human intervention.
These systems are ideal for businesses seeking to overcome challenges like labor shortages or inefficiencies in traditional material transport methods. At Melton, we take pride in creating solutions that are as unique as your production floor. Every system we design is customized to your facility’s layout and operational requirements, providing a seamless, cost-effective way to scale your distribution operations while reducing bottlenecks and errors.
Driving Value with Robotic Vehicles
Efficiency and accuracy are at the heart of every material handling process we automate. By investing in these advanced robotic technologies, manufacturers can unlock a host of advantages that improve overall productivity and safety, including:
Optimized Workflow
Eliminate downtime and enhance operational flow with continuous material movement.
Reduced Labor Costs
Automate repetitive tasks and free up employees for higher-value responsibilities.
Increased Accuracy
Advanced sensors and navigation systems guarantee precise delivery and placement of materials.
Scalability
Easily expand or reconfigure your fleet of AGVs and AMRs as production demands change.
Automated Guided Vehicles
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) offer a proven solution for streamlining material handling tasks. These systems follow fixed paths using technologies like magnetic tapes, lasers, or sensors, ensuring accurate transport from one workstation to another. Perfect for structured manufacturing environments, AGVs handle repetitive tasks such as loading and unloading, pallet transport, and material transfers with efficiency and consistency.
Melton’s custom solutions for guided robot vehicles offer reliability without sacrificing flexibility. Whether you’re moving heavy loads or fragile components, AGVs help keep your operations running smoothly with minimal downtime.
Autonomous Mobile Robots
Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) bring an added layer of intelligence to material handling by navigating dynamic environments without physical infrastructure. Unlike AGVs on fixed routes, AMRs use advanced mapping and sensor systems to adapt in real time, avoiding obstacles, and recalculating routes as necessary. This makes them an ideal choice for facilities where layouts or workflows frequently change.
Melton’s AMR product lines and solutions are designed to complement your production needs, delivering precision and adaptability. Whether managing inventory, transporting goods and materials, or supporting just-in-time production models, AMRs provide a flexible, future-ready solution that enhances operational efficiency.
