An Agility Robotics’ Digit robot moving a tote to a rack position at Agility’s booth demo on Monday.
Agility Robotics (Booth B9602), creator of the market-leading bipedal Mobile Manipulation Robot (MMR) Digit unveils Agility Arc, a cloud application platform for deploying and managing Digit fleets. As customers begin deploying Digit for use in their operations, Agility Arc simplifies the deployment lifecycle. The solution provides facility mapping, workflows, operational management and troubleshooting.
“Smart companies are looking to multipurpose mobile manipulation solutions like Digit to automate themselves out of a very serious labor gap,” said Melonee Wise, CTO. “Agility Arc lets warehouse operators put Digit to work quickly and easily in the most critical workflows, starting with bulk material handling in warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing sites.”
Also at Modex, Agility will debut a new use case showing how Digit uses a range of end effector tooling to tackle different types of totes typically found in logistics, manufacturing and warehouse operations.
