Latent Mobile Robots

Teklas faced significant challenges in the production and storage processes at their Bartın facility. Parts that were assembled were manually placed into crates by workers, which were then transported by forklift drivers to the storage areas. However, this process led to the following issues:

• Wrong product / Lost product
• Incorrect stock
• Heavy warehouse traffic
• High operational costs

Disruptions in transporting products from production to storage areas caused delays and bottlenecks, increasing costs and slowing down operations.

To address the issues at Teklas’s Bartın facility, Peak Porter adopted a strategy of delegating repetitive tasks to robots. Although these tasks were routine and simple, the robot technology used needed to be highly efficient. We have great confidence in our partner Hikrobot’s mobile robots. By creating an environment where humans and robots work in harmony through long working hours and seamless communication with our software, we aimed to increase efficiency and reduce errors.

The solution was not fully automated but was designed so that robots could work alongside humans. Products, assembled in collaboration with 6-axis robots and humans, were transported from production areas to storage areas with the help of LMRs. This resulted in significant time and cost savings.
