Too Many Mobile Robots, Not Enough Efficiency? Unlock 30% More Robot Productivity with AI-Powered Scheduling

The Challenge: Underutilized Mobile Robots and Operational Inefficiencies

As industries across the world increasingly deploy Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to streamline intralogistics, one persistent issue remains: suboptimal fleet utilization. Many companies find that their robots are not performing at full capacity due to ineffective fleet management software, leading to:

• Idle Time & Wasted Resources – Robots are underutilized, requiring more vehicles than necessary to meet operational demands.

• Rigid Scheduling & Routing – Existing fleet managers struggle to dynamically adjust to priorities, delivery windows, and operational constraints.

• Poor Adaptability – Delays, breakdowns, or last-minute transport changes are managed inefficiently, causing workflow disruptions.

Without smarter optimization, companies risk higher operational costs, inefficiencies, and reduced ROI on robotic investments.

The Solution: AI-Powered Fleet Optimization

KINEXON Fleet Manager introduces an AI-driven scheduling and optimization engine, leveraging advanced machine learning models and constraint-aware scheduling algorithms. The scheduler continuously analyzes real-time order demand, vehicle availability, route constraints, and operational priorities to assign tasks with maximum efficiency. It uses reinforcement learning techniques to improve over time and automatically recalibrates task assignments when disruptions such as delays, breakdowns, or high-priority orders occur. This technology not only maximizes robot utilization and reduces idle time, but also streamlines task orchestration across mixed fleets, ensuring that every vehicle is operating at its full potential—even in the most dynamic environments.

Key Benefits of KINEXON’s Advanced Scheduler & Optimization Engine

1. Increased Efficiency: Do More with Less
   • Reduces fleet size while maintaining or exceeding current performance levels.
   • Optimizes task assignments, ensuring robots are always working at peak efficiency. ‍
2. Enhanced Flexibility: Align with Business Priorities
   • Supports dynamic routing and scheduling that adapts to real-time changes.
   • Adheres to customer-specific workflows, priority-based order handling, and time-sensitive deliveries. ‍
3. Real-Time Adaptability: Proactive, Not Reactive
   • Instantly adjusts schedules based on delays, breakdowns, or unexpected transport orders.
   • Reduces operational disruptions, ensuring seamless material flow across facilities.
