A large-scale industrial logistics park has recently completed the deployment of an autonomous forklift system designed to handle material transfer between two independent warehouse buildings separated by outdoor roads.
Previously, logistics operations relied on a combination of manual forklifts and shuttle vehicles, requiring multiple handovers, increased labor costs, and higher risk of delays and inefficiencies.
With the new autonomous system, the entire process has been fully automated:
Automatic pallet pickup inside Warehouse A
Autonomous navigation through outdoor industrial roadways
Real-time obstacle detection and avoidance in mixed traffic environments
Precise unloading and storage inside Warehouse B
The system is equipped with high-precision positioning and multi-layer safety protection, allowing it to operate reliably in complex outdoor environments where pedestrians, trucks, and forklifts coexist.
One of the key advantages of this deployment is the elimination of intermediate handling steps, which reduces overall transportation time by approximately 50% and improves workflow continuity across the entire logistics park.
This project marks a major step toward fully connected, autonomous inter-building logistics within industrial campuses.
