Seegrid sets the standard with Forklift AMR Payload Versatility

Seegrid Corporation continues to redefine what’s possible in autonomous solutions with its superior payload versatility—a key differentiator setting the company apart in the AMR market. Seegrid’s advanced AMRs are uniquely equipped to handle the most payloads in the modern manufacturing industry today, from standard pallets to customer-specific forkables—any pallet or payload intended to be handled with a fork truck—with high variation in shape, size, and material composition.

With over two decades of autonomy technology leadership, Seegrid has built proven and flexible pallet detection and manipulation capabilities. Proprietary algorithms empower Seegrid’s autonomous lift trucks, the RS1 and CR1, to reliably identify and interact with a broad spectrum of payload types in industrial environments. This includes the ability to:

  • Perceive: Recognize and validate payload position through intelligent perception systems, enabling precise engagement and secure handling regardless of inconsistencies in placement.
  • Plan: Dynamically generate and adjust paths using advanced algorithms—even when payloads are misaligned or skewed—ensuring efficient and adaptable material flow.
  • Control: Execute the planned path with precision using Seegrid’s proven Sliding Scale Autonomy navigation stack to maintain safe and reliable performance without additional infrastructure.
  • Handle changing workflows: Particularly within buffer zones, our autonomous lift trucks enable flexible lane building and intelligent lane depletion tasks to dynamically respond to real-time demand and space availability.

“Our customers face real-world complexity that goes beyond textbook automation,” said David Griffin, Chief Sales Officer at Seegrid. “What sets Seegrid apart is our ability to help them automate safely and reliably—no matter how unique or variable their payloads are. We’re not just handling pallets; we’re mastering the art of dynamic payload movement with the most adaptive, intelligent technology on the market.”

Handling Payload Diversity at Scale

Seegrid’s payload-agnostic approach enables its autonomous lift trucks to excel in a wide range of mission-critical applications, from putaway and parts-to-line workflows to fully autonomous buffer management and now, increasingly, feeding fixed automation cells.

As more manufacturers adopt robo-cells—automated workstations powered by fixed-arm robots—Seegrid AMRs are proving essential in delivering parts-to-line with the precision and timing required to keep these systems running efficiently. This includes high-impact use cases already in production at our global automotive manufacturing customers, signaling a major growth opportunity and emerging standard for Seegrid’s autonomous material movement.

From compact bins to oversized custom loads, Seegrid AMRs are purpose-built to handle it all with dependable flexibility. With the ability to autonomously transport a wide spectrum of payload sizes, Seegrid’s robots are trusted across industries for their adaptability and precision. Some current customer deployments include handling:

  • 30×30 bins for small-part picking and replenishment,
  • 48×40 standard pallets, the backbone of most manufacturing and warehouse workflows,
  • 62×96, 96×78, and 96×96 custom payloads, designed to accommodate large, irregular, or high-value materials,
  • And countless other payload variations with unique dimensions, weights, and material characteristics across manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics.

Whether your operation requires precision feeding of automated cells or reliable movement of complex materials and non-standard forkables, Seegrid’s solutions are engineered to scale with the demands of modern material handling.
