Battery hours decide the shift
Efficient drive control and low quiescent draw keep a robot working through the shift, not charging.

for robots that move.
Automated guided vehicles and mobile robots run their shifts in the same dust, wash-down and traffic as the machines around them. Makersan supplies the drive and I/O control, the sensing and the connectivity that keep a fleet of them working, on hardware qualified for mobile machinery rather than for a bench.
On the floor
A robot's day is a duty cycle.
People share the floor
Deterministic CAN messaging and hard-wired stop paths support the vehicle's own safety concept.
Position has to hold
Angle, inertial and wheel sensing feed navigation with stable, repeatable measurement.
A fleet, not a robot
Telemetry and remote configuration keep a growing fleet on one software version and one dashboard.
