FlexQube is granted additional patents
FlexQube's patent application regarding the company's unique AMR system ("Autonomous Mobile Robot"), FlexQube Navigator, will be granted in China. In addition to this, FlexQube has also been informed that another patent for Navigator AMR will be granted in the USA, which further broadens the concept's scope of protection in FlexQube's most important and largest market.
The patent relates to the technology of a small and non-load-bearing AMR that connects with motorized FlexQube carts via a smart coupling, creating a combined ecosystem for material transportation.
As previously informed, the corresponding patent will also be granted in Canada, and previously patents regarding Navigator AMR have been granted in the USA and by the European Patent Office. Corresponding patent applications are also pending in South Korea, Japan, Mexico and India.
Per Augustsson, commercial product owner AMR, comments:
"It is gratifying that we are further strengthening our patent protection for our unique robot system. The patented technology enables a safe and efficient solution for our customers who want to replace manual fork-lifts with automated material handling for the production lines. Our AMR, which is equipped with a standardized interface, can couple with a wide variety of motorized load carriers adapted to the material the customer wants to transport. This gives a unique flexibility as one and the same AMR can be used for many different applications at the customer.
We are now in a phase with a big focus on scaling up the sales of our AMR system to our existing customers in the manufacturing industry in our main markets in Europe and North America. During the second quarter, a successful implementation has been completed at a large commercial manufacturer of heavy vehicles in Sweden, where the AMR system daily delivers high-frequency and production-critical material to the assembly line where manual fork-lifts were previously used.
In addition to this, we have sold another project to a customer in Sweden in the space and aviation industry, and we are continuously working to add new projects to our pipeline."
