Workflow
| STEP 1. | Data Management: The WMS (Warehouse Management System) manages material inbound and outbound data. |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Task Instruction: The WMS sends work orders to the ACS (AMR Control System). |
| STEP 3. | Scheduling: The AMR receives task scheduling data from the ACS. |
| STEP 4. | Execution: The AMR performs product loading and unloading operations according to the assigned sequence. |
| STEP 5. | Idle State: When no tasks are active, the AMR moves to its home position for automatic charging and awaits the next instruction. |

CMES Palletizing Solution Revealed: Why Coupang Chose This AI-Powered Robot
Project Overview The CMES Palletizing solution is a robot automation system designed to automatically stack boxes of various sizes and shapes onto pallets. This system optimizes palletizing—one of the most critical tasks in Logistics—by integrating 3D vision and AI technology. Even when irregular boxes arrive at random, the AI independently generates optimal stacking patterns, providing high efficiency and space utilization. Project Background & Objectives Palletizing is crucial in large-scale logistics centers and manufacturing, but the increasing variety of box sizes and shapes makes manual labor time-consuming and costly. To address this, CMES has developed AI learning algorithms since 2014 and finalized an automated palletizing solution through various verification stages. This solution was specifically implemented to meet the technical need for fast and accurate processing of irregular boxes in large-scale logistics centers like Coupang.
Omron AMR Logistics Robot Successfully Automates Raw Material Transport to Boost Operational Efficiency
Project Overview This implementation case features a large-scale circular raw material transport solution utilizing Omron AMR Logistics robots. Previously, raw material transport involved workers manually rolling large circular containers, which created issues with fatigue and efficiency, necessitating an automation solution. This project aimed to automate the movement of raw materials by introducing Omron AMR Logistics robots, thereby reducing worker burden and significantly improving operational efficiency. Project Background & Objectives When raw materials arrived in large containers, the manual transport process by workers involved high labor intensity and the risk of injury. Furthermore, productivity decreased due to time consumption and operational imbalances. The objective of this project is to implement an AMR-based automation solution to resolve these issues and achieve efficient logistics operations.
