Automated Pallet Mover and Autonomous Pallet Truck

GLOBAL sizes each pallet-handling solution to the loads, travel distances, and move rate your facility requires rather than a fixed number. Pallet weight, dimensions, stack height, floor conditions, traffic, and how many moves per hour are needed all shape vehicle or robot selection and route design. Layout and traffic are studied—and simulated where useful—so the system sustains your required flow with safe margins.

Automation can be engineered for many pallet sizes, weights, stack heights, and load configurations once pickup method and load stability are evaluated. GLOBAL assesses pallet construction, fork-entry access, center of gravity, wrapping, and product overhang to confirm each load can be handled reliably. Where loads vary, the pickup interface, sensing, and controls are designed to accommodate the range your operation runs.

The lifting and load-handling mechanism—forks, clamps, or robotic tooling depending on the task—is engineered to your pallets and transfer surfaces. For palletizing and depalletizing, GLOBAL designs or specifies the end-of-arm tooling and sources grippers from established component suppliers rather than leaving procurement to the customer. Handling points and sensing are matched to your loads so pallets are engaged, carried, and set down securely.

Yes. Automated pallet systems can tie into existing conveyors, pallet dispensers, stretch wrappers, lifts, racking, dock areas, and production controls. GLOBAL reviews the current controls architecture, physical handoff points, timing, pallet condition, and required communications before defining an interface, including how autonomous vehicles interact with doors and traffic. The goal is coordinated material flow rather than isolated equipment that creates new bottlenecks.

Safety is built into the complete cell and facility workflow, not added at the end. Depending on the application, GLOBAL applies guarding, onboard and area sensors, emergency-stop functions, defined traffic rules, safe interaction zones, and safety-rated controls, and evaluates how employees, forklifts, conveyors, and robots share the space. The approach follows recognized industrial safety practices, and safety functions are verified during commissioning before production launch.

Most facilities need some preparation, scaled to traffic, loads, and goals. Planning may cover mapping travel routes, defining pickup and drop-off stations, confirming floor quality, marking safe interaction zones, integrating automatic doors, and updating controls or network coverage. GLOBAL develops the layout and identifies these changes early through a feasibility study, then schedules installation and commissioning around your operation to limit disruption.

After commissioning, GLOBAL provides operator and maintenance training, technical documentation, and ongoing optimization support so your team can run and expand the system. Recommended spares for vehicles, tooling, and controls can be identified to help limit downtime, and support covers troubleshooting, route adjustments, and future additions. Where added coverage is needed, GLOBAL can supply controls engineers, programmers, and technicians, and systems are built for sustained production with service handled during scheduled maintenance windows.
