Accelerate your Manufacturing Warehouses and Distribution Centers
Say goodbye to manual material handling and hello to a more efficient supply chain. Revolutionize your operations by automating the movement of materials and increasing your productivity rates. With StayLinked Evolve, integrating Zebra Fetch robots is fast and hassle-free, requiring no new IT infrastructure or modifications to your facility. Experience rapid and easy robotics implementation and start reaping the benefits within days, not weeks.
AMRs automate material handling tasks, navigating through warehouses, distribution centers, and production facilities autonomously. With their ability to efficiently move goods around the clock without breaks, AMRs enhance operational efficiency and speed up processes.
Flexibility and Scalability
AMRs adapt to changing demands and operational needs, allowing supply chains to easily adjust workflows and optimize resource allocation. Whether it's scaling up during peak seasons or reconfiguring their route as you change the layout of your warehouse, AMRs provide the agility to adapt to dynamic environments.
Improved Safety
AMRs are designed with safety features that help prevent collisions and accidents. They use sensors, cameras, and advanced navigation systems to detect obstacles and navigate around them.
Enhanced Accuracy and Traceability
AMRs utilize advanced technology, such as barcode scanners or RFID readers, to accurately identify and track inventory in real-time. This improves inventory management, reduces errors, and enhances traceability throughout the supply chain.
Labor Optimization
By automating repetitive and physically demanding tasks, AMRs free up human workers to focus on more complex and value-added activities. AMRs allow organizations to complete tasks even with a labor shortage, but also keep existing employees happier and more likely to stay.
Data Analytics and Insights
The data AMRs generate – such as travel times, task completion rates, and equipment utilization – can be analyzed to gain insights into operational performance, identify bottlenecks, and optimize workflows. With data-driven insights, supply chains can continuously improve processes.
AMRs play a crucial role in transforming operations by increasing efficiency, improving safety, enabling flexibility, and providing valuable data for optimization. With AMRs you can adapt to the evolving demands of your industry by future proofing your operations.

Dispelling the Myth: AMRs are more affordable than you think!
Contrary to popular belief, AMRs are not as costly as they may seem. Here's the truth about AMR affordability:
Lower Total Cost of Ownership:
AMRs have a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than traditional equipment, making them a cost-effective choice. AMRs require less infrastructure modification, do not rely on fixed infrastructure like conveyor belts, and can adapt to existing layouts, reducing additional expenses.
Scalability without Breaking the Bank:
Unlike traditional automation solutions that require expensive and complex reconfigurations, implementation of Zebra's Fetch robots can be easily scaled up or down as needed, allowing businesses to start small and gradually expand their fleet based on demand and budget.
Quick Implementation and ROI:
With StayLinked Evolve, the implementation of AMRs, such as Zebra's Fetch robots, is swift, resulting in rapid return on investment (ROI). AMRs, can be up and running in days, requiring minimal setup time or integration efforts.
Reduced Labor Costs:
AMRs optimize labor allocation and minimize manual labor requirements. By automating material handling tasks, AMRs free up employees to focus on higher-value work, leading to improved productivity and reduced labor costs.
AMRs offer long-term benefits and lower total cost of ownership compared to traditional equipment. They provide unparallel scalability and operational efficiency, making AMRs a smart investment for businesses aiming to stay competitive in the modern landscape.
