VRC AutoLock – AMR Restraint

Autoquip, the leader in VRC automation, is setting a new industry standard with the introduction of VRC AutoLock – AMR Restraint. This groundbreaking technology transforms how Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) interact with Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors (VRCs), ensuring seamless and secure material transport across automated warehouses. Precision Alignment for AMR Travel – AutoLock automatically adjusts the VRC carriage to create a flush interface with the landing, ensuring smooth AMR movement on and off the platform. Dynamic Restraint for AMR Safety – While the VRC is in operation, AutoLock physically restrains AMRs to prevent unwanted movement, eliminating the risk of premature exits or shifting during transport. Controlled Access & Guarding – AutoLock automates guarding mechanisms, restricting AMR entry into the lift area until it's time for a transfer, enhancing both efficiency and safety.
