Compact & omnidirectional

Slim design and omnidrive enable precise movements even in tight spaces.

Safe & autonomous

360° scanner coverage and obstacle avoidance ensure reliable, collision-free operation.

Efficient & sustainable

Electric free-lift system with long-lasting Li-ion battery for 24/7 performance and low maintenance.

AutoMate your load carrier movements

A-MATE® FreeLift

A-MATE® FreeLift is an intelligent mobile robot designed to transport logistic units such as pallets and containers in production and logistics environments such as warehouses and sorting centers.

 

As an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) it is completely autonomous and does not need an on-board operator or driver.

Benefits of A-MATE® FreeLift

The key advantages of our AGV include its very slim design as well as the omnidirectional drive system, making it highly manoevrable and efficient even in tight spaces.

 

The powerful electric free lift (no scissors under the forks) allows floor-to-floor load handling as well as handling from racks and conveyors – with a maximum load of 1,000 kg and up to one metre in height. With a scanner coverage of 360° it also ensures maximum Health & Safety.
