Piaggio Fast Forward will spotlight kilo, its next-generation collaborative mobile robot (CMR) designed to transform material movement in manufacturing, warehousing, logistics and facilities management. kilo delivers practical automation that empowers operators, increases throughput and improves workplace safety. It is a four-wheeled robotic flatbed engineered to eliminate manual pushing, pulling and repetitive load handling, tasks that are a major driver of workplace injuries. Its 300 lb payload and pedestrian-speed enables it to handle heavy items safely while moving naturally alongside operators. The company said that kilo’s movement in response to the operator is a difference maker for materials handling professionals. Piaggio Fast Forward will demo hybrid navigation, showing how kilo smoothly transitions between following users in front and behind, all while maintaining predictable, socially aware movement in shared spaces.
