MODEX 2026: Cutting-edge warehouse robots, AMRs & more

FANUC is showcasing the CRX-30iA mobile manipulator, demonstrating palletizing with a fully integrated robotic AMR system engineered for warehouse, fulfillment and distribution environments. This system takes on ergonomically challenging jobs that traditionally put strain on employees while delivering high throughput. AI-driven perception tools, including payload estimation, box-locating vision and barcode-based decision logic, allow the CRX-30iA and 600 AMR from OTTO by Rockwell Automation to adapt automatically to varied box sizes, pallet conditions and routing requirements. The system’s intelligent safety architecture uses area scanners and smart speed control to maintain high-speed operation when the area is clear and slows automatically when workers approach - enabling safe, fenceless collaboration. The demo combines the high-payload CRX-30iA collaborative robot with the OTTO 600 AMR to pick, weigh, transport, palletize and sort boxes. The CRX-30iA operates at its top collaborative speed, while the AMR can travel up to 2 meters per second to support efficient intralogistics performance. FANUC, fanucamerica.com, Booth B8923
