Adept Technology Launches New Fleet Management System for Lynx Mobile Robots
March 12 2015 - 3:01PM
Adept Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:ADEP), a leading provider of
intelligent robots, autonomous mobile solutions and services, today
announced that it has launched Lynx Enterprise Manager 1100, a new
fleet management system for Adept's Lynx autonomous intelligent
vehicles (AIVs). Lynx Enterprise Manager 1100 controls all aspects
of operating a fleet of Lynx mobile robots, coordinating as many as
100 vehicles simultaneously to enable large-scale deployments for
warehousing/logistics, manufacturing and semiconductor
applications.
"Adept Lynx AIVs are an effective, autonomous method for moving
goods throughout large warehouses and factories, improving
efficiency and flexibility, and lowering costs," said Michael
Oitzman, senior product line manager of Mobile Robots at Adept.
"Lynx Enterprise Manager 1100 is a powerful, easy-to-deploy
platform that can manage every aspect of a substantial Lynx mobile
robot workforce."
Lynx AIVs provide rapid, traceable material movement in highly
dynamic environments such as warehouses, distribution centers and
factories. Unlike traditional AGV systems, Lynx vehicles
intelligently self-navigate, avoiding obstacles and selecting the
best path to complete a task. The Lynx Enterprise Manager 1100 is a
powerful tool for controlling a Lynx fleet, coordinating vehicle
configuration, task allocation and traffic control, and interfacing
with a user's existing enterprise management system.
Adept will showcase the Lynx Enterprise Manager 1100, along with
other new industrial and mobile robot technologies, at Automate
2015 booth 1060 on March 23-26 at McCormick Place North in Chicago,
Illinois. Attendees can schedule booth appointments by contacting
Ann Keffer, Adept worldwide director of marketing, at
Ann.Keffer@adept.com.
