A-MATE® FreeLift

A-MATE® FreeLift is an intelligent mobile robot built to transport pallets and containers in warehouses, production facilities, and parcel operations.

It can operate in both AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) and AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) modes, allowing the system to adapt to different facility layouts and navigation requirements.

In AGV mode, A-MATE FreeLift follows defined routes and operates fully autonomously—moving loads between workstations, shelves, and conveyors without a driver.

A-MATE® FreeLift combines a slim design with an omnidirectional drive system, allowing it to maneuver smoothly through tight aisles and crowded work areas.

The electric FreeLift mechanism raises loads without scissor components beneath the forks, enabling floor-to-floor transport as well as pickup and delivery from racks and conveyors. A-MATE FreeLift handles loads up to 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) and lifts them to heights of up to 39 inches (1 meter).

360-degree laser scanner coverage continuously monitors the robot’s surroundings, helping support safe operation around people, equipment, and work areas.

• Increased productivity by having 24/7 usage
• Reduced handling costs
• Increased health & safety in your operations
• More flexibility
• Better process quality
• Operational transparency
• Compensation of skilled labor shortage

• Powered by electricity, not hydraulics
• Lifting is enabled to 3.6ft for up to 2200 lbs
• A-MATE® FreeLift can also load and unload units from conveyor belts
• Li-ion batteries enable long operating hours with minimal charging times

• Load carrier detection combined with the omnidirectional drive system enables fast positioning and accurate pickup.

• The omnidirectional drive also corrects load alignment quickly, ensuring smooth and reliable handling.

• Omnidirectional drive allows the robot to move freely in any direction for precise positioning.

• Slim design enables smooth movement and turning in tight aisles and crowded work areas.

• Operates efficiently in narrow aisles with minimal floor space required.

• Continuous safety scanning, speed adjustment and obstacle avoidance
• Emergency brake
• Visual signals

• No fixed infrastructure for navigation needed
• Contour-based LiDAR navigation
• A-MATE® FreeLift orients itself based on both the predefined lay-out of the space and measurement data provided by laser safety scanners
• Centralized fleet management
• 2D pallet detection, 3D obstacle detection, obstacle avoidance
• VDA 5050 interface
