Vecna Robotics, the leader in flexible material handling
automation solutions, today announced it has been mentioned in the
Gartner® Hype CycleTM for Mobile Robots and Drones, 2024 report for
Autonomous Mobile Robots (Transport) technology.
The global rise in e-commerce, renewed investment in nearshoring
operations in North America, and a persistent shortage of skilled
workers is pushing supply chains to go deeper into their digital
transformation efforts with material handling automation. According
to the Hype Cycle report, “AMRs will continue to gain traction in
warehouses, distribution centers and plants, as AMRs increasingly
take over functions historically performed by humans on lift
trucks.” This year’s report asserts, “New purchasing models like
robots as a service make AMRs more accessible to a widespread
audience, capturing the interest of small to midsize companies that
can’t make large CAPEX investments. However, not all vendors can
absorb holding the assets on their books.”
“The AMR market is entering the state of maturity where
customers are ready to deploy this technology as part of warehouse
automation and manufacturing initiatives at scale,” said Craig
Malloy, CEO at Vecna Robotics. “We believe that our company is well
positioned to take advantage of the next wave with proven, flexible
material handling technology, the ability to scale as their needs
grow, and nearly immediate positive ROI with our robot as a service
pricing model.”
The company also announced that it has been recognized as a
Sample Vendor in the Gartner® Hype CycleTM for Supply Chain
Execution Technologies, 2024 report for Intralogistics Smart Robots
technology. The report states that “within warehousing and
fulfillment operations, labor is identified as one of the most
notable internal obstacles to supply chain success, and labor costs
are rising while labor availability remains constrained.” The
report goes on to say that “by 2027, over 75% of companies will
have adopted some form of cyber-physical automation within their
warehouse operations.”
“Realizing ROI and developing internal expertise with automation
technology are key concerns for operators today,” said Josh
Kivenko, SVP and Chief Marketing Officer at Vecna Robotics.
“Fortunately, our autonomous tuggers, forklift, and pallet jacks
provide operations with nearly immediate positive ROI, and our
performance guarantee and comprehensive support model provide the
assurance they need to adopt this technology right away.”
Year-to-date Vecna Robotics has a 4.3/5 peer rating on Gartner
Peer Insights™ review platform for its AMR robot solutions.
