AGV vs AMR — Which Is Right for You?

Both AGVs and AMRs automate material transport, but they differ in how they navigate and how flexible they are. We help you choose the right technology for your environment.

AGV — Automated Guided Vehicle

Fixed-path navigation
NavigationFixed paths (magnetic tape, laser)
FlexibilityLow — path changes require reconfiguration
Best forRepetitive, high-volume fixed routes
CostLower initial investment
PayloadUp to several tonnes (forklift AGV)
Typical usePallet transport, assembly line supply

AMR — Autonomous Mobile Robot

Intelligent autonomous navigation
NavigationAutonomous — maps environment with sensors
FlexibilityHigh — adapts to layout changes dynamically
Best forDynamic environments, mixed-traffic areas
CostHigher initial, lower installation cost
PayloadUp to 1,500 kg (KUKA KMP 1500P)
Typical useWarehouse-to-line, intralogistics, kitting

AMR & AGV Platform Range

KUKA's mobile robotics portfolio covers a wide range of payloads and applications — from light parts transport to heavy pallet handling.

TPV Displays Polska — 22 AMRs in Production

AMR Intralogistics
Electronics Manufacturing · Poland

Automated Intralogistics with KUKA KMP 1500P Fleet

TPV Displays Polska, a leading European TV manufacturer, deployed 22 KUKA KMP 1500P AMRs at its Gorzów Wielkopolski plant to fully automate internal material transport between the warehouse and 10 assembly lines.

Before automation, employees moved TV panels and materials using electric carts — a time-consuming, physically demanding process prone to delays. The AMR fleet now handles all transport autonomously, 24/7, using inductive charging.

Operation

"The combination of stationary robots and AMRs improves the efficiency of supply to assembly lines, increases flexibility, and integrates material flow and storage into a high-performance system."

Intralogistics Applications

AMRs and AGVs can automate virtually any repetitive internal transport task — from raw material delivery to finished goods dispatch.

🏭

Production Line Supply

Automated delivery of raw materials, components and packaging to production lines — eliminating manual trolley runs.

📦

Warehouse-to-Line Transport

AMRs move pallets and totes from storage to assembly or packing areas on demand — triggered by WMS or production systems.

♻️

Empty Packaging Return

Automated return of empty pallets, totes and packaging materials to storage or waste sorting areas.

❄️

Cold Chain Transport

AGVs operating in chilled and frozen environments — moving product between cold storage and processing areas without human exposure.

🔧

Maintenance Parts Kitting

Automated delivery of spare parts, tools and consumables to maintenance teams or production stations.

🚚

Dispatch & Loading Area

AMRs move completed pallets from production or packing to dispatch staging areas — ready for truck loading.

🏗️

Heavy Load Transport

KUKA omniMove platforms handle ultra-heavy loads with precision — for aerospace, timber and heavy manufacturing applications.

🛒

E-commerce Fulfilment

Goods-to-person picking systems using latent AGVs — bringing shelving units to pickers rather than pickers walking to shelves.
