AGVs and AMRs

Evaluate and implement AGVs and AMRs.

Evaluating automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots comes down to a business case, a fleet size and a floor that can support them. Start with the calculators, then read the method behind the numbers.

Calculators

AGV ROI

Compare forklift labor with an AGV fleet and get payback, NPV, IRR and cost per pallet move, for purchase or lease.
Labor and headcount

Build the manual-labor baseline an AGV project is measured against, with FTE and headcount by function and annual cost.
