The Journey from Manual to Autonomous: Do’s & Don’ts for Orchestrating Forklifts and Mobile Robots

The Journey from Manual to Autonomous: Do’s & Don’ts for Orchestrating Forklifts and Mobile Robots

How do you build scalable fleet automation—where people, forklifts, AMRs, and AGVs operate side by side? In today’s high-mix, fast-moving warehouses, operations leaders face growing challenges: fragmented data from mixed fleets, rising labor shortages, safety incidents, and unpredictable demand surges.

Join experts from KINEXON, KION Group, and Slamcore as they break down a practical framework for digitizing and orchestrating hybrid warehouse environments. This session is structured around essential Do’s and Don’ts for building smart, scalable fleet automation—based on real-world experience from global warehouse operations dealing with throughput constraints, aging infrastructure, and integration headaches.

Watch now

What’s the biggest challenge in fleet management today? We asked the audience during our live webinar — and most of them answered: 👉 tracking forklifts and their activities.

That’s why Slamcore, KION, and KINEXON came together — to share the real do’s & don’ts of moving from manual to autonomous operations in the warehouse. Because success isn’t about installing flashy tech; it’s about discipline, orchestration, and building systems that actually work on the shop floor. The discussion was rooted in reality — tackling real customer challenges with real-world examples.

Key takeaways from the webinar

Do's

➡️ Design automation around real processes, not hypothetical ideals

➡️ Enable shared, real-time awareness across every vehicle

➡️ Optimize flows specifically for automation

➡️ Demand interoperability from day one

Dont's

❌ Don’t assume autonomy solves everything — knowledge is key

❌ Don’t deploy blindly — know your baseline efficiency first

❌ Don’t copy-paste manual workflows

❌ Don’t build a walled garden

Who should watch

Senior professionals in warehouse operations, digital transformation, process engineering, and supply chain automation—especially those working with SAP EWM, or planning for brownfield modernization and Industry 4.0 readiness.
