In modern manufacturing, automated material handling is becoming an essential strategy for increasing efficiency and reducing labor costs. Today, we share a real case from Shenzhen Rihuida Electronics Factory, showing how they successfully tackled material handling challenges and significantly boosted productivity with the introduction of a Fly Boat AMR.
Like many electronics factories, Rihuida faced difficulties in material transportation. Raw materials needed to be continuously moved from the warehouse to the workshop, but manual transportation was inefficient and labor-intensive. The issue became more critical when materials had to be transported using elevators—manual operations were slow and posed safety risks. To enhance efficiency and cut costs, Rihuida adopted an automated handling system.
Why Choose Fly Boat AMR?
To address these issues, Rihuida introduced the Fly Boat AMR, a robot capable of carrying up to 300kg and lifting materials by 10cm, making elevator transportation seamless. Additionally, it is equipped with specialized racks to keep materials stable during transport.
Fully Automated Workflow
The AMR autonomously picks up materials from the warehouse and navigates to the designated workshop location without human intervention. It even operates elevators automatically, eliminating the need for manual control.
Efficiency Gains
After implementing the Fly Boat AMR, Rihuida significantly reduced its reliance on manual labor. Previously, each transportation task required 3 to 5 workers, including manual elevator operation. Now, the robot completes these tasks autonomously, increasing transportation efficiency by 50% and reducing labor requirements by 60%.
Key Performance Data:
- 50% Increase in Material Handling Efficiency
- 30% Reduction in Monthly Labor Costs
- Improved Workplace Safety, reducing risks from human errors
By deploying the Fly Boat AMR, Rihuida Electronics not only optimized warehouse-to-workshop transportation but also enhanced efficiency and reduced operational costs. This transformation saved labor resources and streamlined production workflows.
If your company faces similar challenges, an automated handling system could be the key to improving competitiveness and solving material transportation inefficiencies.
