Milvus Fleet Manager is the ultimate way to control your robots from anywhere. All you need is a smart device! Our fleet management software supplies you with all the information you need to operate your fleet with ease. Think of our software as your fleet’s control center. It connects in real time so it will always give you the most up-to-date information.
No matter the size of your facility, you can expect your robots to work synergistically to enhance your operation.
Optimized Traffic Flow
Milvus takes traffic management very seriously. That’s why we impose traffic regulations on our robots similar to those imposed on automobiles. Robots must adhere to speed limits, one-way zones, stop signs, and restricted areas. You even have the power to draw virtual lines that your robots must stay on as they move between stations. You won’t have to worry about robots running into each other, blocking work areas, or getting in the way of your employees. Things can operate smoothly.
Area-based control is a vital part of traffic management. Each robot in your fleet can reserve the area they need to be in. While one robot is using an area, no other robot can enter that space. The space is “locked.” If that locked space is another robot’s target station, they must travel to an alternative station instead. All the work gets done in the safest and most cost-effective way.
Of course, robots may need to cross paths. Because of this, our fleet management software also has intersection management to direct robots through congested areas. This ensures that robots are given the ability to proceed at intersections based on the priority of their jobs. Time-sensitive tasks will be completed promptly but without creating a safety hazard in your warehouse.
Advanced Task Monitoring
The Milvus Fleet Manager will never randomly assign a task to a robot. It takes many factors into account to delegate intelligently. By monitoring battery life, workload, location, and other parameters, this system can find the robot that’s right for the task. Because of our advanced algorithm, every robot in your fleet will work together seamlessly.
Our fleet management software allows you to plan ahead with your fleet, scheduling future tasks. Tasks may also have dependencies. Although these configurations may sound complex, they can be generated with ease using our mission planner. Our drag-and-drop user interface helps you customize automation workflows directly. You never have to code or use third-party integrators!
Stay informed on all aspects of your robotic fleet.
You can track all aspects of your fleet through our easy-to-use interface. When you use the Milvus Fleet Manager dashboards, you can empower different groups to supervise and deploy robots. You can monitor vehicle information, check robot health, and track the flow of materials from any mobile device. Toggle between map and status views so you’re always in the know about your robots and materials.
Milvus doesn’t want you to have to go sifting through data to find the metrics that you need. That’s why we don’t just send alerts on time-sensitive material movement needs. We also send you smart notifications on key information such as throughput, distance, job takt times, and more. You can put minimal time and effort into staying informed.
All this info and more is right at your fingertips! When you’re able to continuously monitor every robot in your fleet, you will experience increased productivity and optimized material flow.
The Milvus Fleet Manager is compatible with virtually any system!
Integrating a new software is often complicated, but with Milvus Fleet Management and our custom tools, it’s simple. Because of our superior flexibility and powerful REST API, we can integrate with any WMS/MES or custom system. This allows you to create new tasks procedures in an automated way without using your software’s user interface.
The Milvus Fleet Manager is also compatible with PLC and OPC-UA systems. You’ll have all the sensor readings you need right at your fingertips and be able to activate jobs with powerful data. You shouldn’t have any problems using our fleet management system in conjunction with cobots or other devices you’re using for materials handling.
The most effective way to enhance the performance of your robot fleet!
Each robot generates a massive amount of data. This is a tremendous asset to choosing Milvus for your robots, but keeping track of all this data can also create more work for you and your employees.
Luckily, the Milvus Fleet Manager not only records data but also provides you with meaningful insights on your data. We record utilization rates, task failure rates, distances traveled, and processed orders. Our reports are easy to understand and provide you with key information you need to not only run your business but continuously improve it. Because we store data, you can also observe trends over time and identify areas for improvement. When used properly, our cutting-edge reporting tools lead to a strong return on investment.
