Case Study
Tier 2 Automotive Supplier Unlocks AMR Performance with Innorobix Integration
A seat manufacturer serving major automotive OEMs had recently introduced MiR AMRs to improve material handling between production lines. However, their internal engineering team lacked the bandwidth and experience to design and deploy a stable, plant-wide solution.

The Challenge
What Was at Stake
Without proper integration, the AMRs were more of a hindrance than a help. Manual part runs persisted. Robots stalled with no alerting, causing production starvation. Teams wasted time restarting AMRs or reverting to manual transport.
The manufacturer couldn’t justify ROI, and the reliability gap posed a risk to delivery commitments. The promise of automation was being lost to poor execution.
Pain Points
Working with Innorobix, they identified critical gaps in their existing system:
• 🧱 AMRs unable to communicate with production lines to receive commands
• 🔄 No integration with existing line logic or part call systems
• ⚠️ Frequent collisions with pallets and static obstacles
• ❌ No visibility or alerting when AMRs became unresponsive or stuck
• 👷 Manual workforce still required to monitor and manage robot movement
The Solution
Innorobix was brought in to deploy and stabilize the entire AMR ecosystem:
• 🧠 Fully trained and programmed the MiR AMRs using a complete digital layout
• 🔌 Integrated AMR command interface with each production line’s PLC system
• 📲 Enabled real-time part request triggers from lines directly to the AMRs
• 📡 Built intuitive, always-on dashboards showing live AMR location and status
• 🔔 Configured alerts for AMR faults, collisions, or idle time
• 📉 Optimized routes and response time, eliminating erratic paths and bottlenecks
• 🤝 Provided post-deployment support and tuned the system
Integrator Delivery
What Changed After Innorobix Delivered
After integration, the AMR system transformed from unstable to strategic. Production lines could now request parts with precision, and AMRs responded reliably — no guesswork, no gaps. Maintenance and supervisors had live visibility into robot locations and system health.
The plant reduced manual material handling labor, cut delays between stations, and improved line-side delivery timing, boosting overall throughput.
The solution was scalable, maintainable, and immediately impactful.
“We went from chasing down robots to trusting them as part of our production team. Innorobix gave us exactly the integration and visibility we needed.“
