What Are The Differences Between AMR Chassis And AGV Chassis?

Oct 27, 2025

news-1-1

Within the AMR sector, Reeman Robotics' chassis has become a leading domestic brand, distinguished by its high openness, stable navigation system, and strong adaptability to diverse scenarios.

 

I. Distinct Navigation Methods: AMR Autonomous Navigation vs. AGV Path Dependency

 

AGV chassis (Automated Guided Vehicle) rely on fixed-path navigation via magnetic strips, reflective markers, or similar systems. Once a route is programmed, it proves difficult to modify flexibly.

 

In contrast, AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) chassis employ SLAM autonomous navigation algorithms. Requiring no reflectors or floor modifications, they map environments and calibrate waypoints simply by being guided around a circuit once, enabling free path planning and dynamic obstacle avoidance. RuiMan's AMR chassis utilise a laser + 3D vision fusion navigation system, autonomously identifying obstacles and pedestrians in complex factory environments to achieve centimetre-level navigation accuracy.

 

II. Deployment Flexibility Differences: AMR is Ready to Use Out of the Box, AGV Requires Complex Modifications

 

AGV system deployment typically takes half a month or longer, involving track laying, path debugging, and beacon installation.

 

The Reeman AMR chassis achieves true out-of-the-box readiness-no site modifications or fixed routes are required, enabling same-day mapping and deployment. This flexibility proves particularly advantageous in small-to-medium factories, leased premises, and flexible production lines.

 

In contrast, the Reeman AMR chassis incorporates omnidirectional obstacle avoidance algorithms, integrating 3D LiDAR, visual sensors, and safety edge detection to deliver 360°立体安全防护. It autonomously navigates around obstacles while dynamically adjusting routes, supporting multi-vehicle scheduling, task allocation, and cloud-based coordination-significantly surpassing AGV systems in intelligence.

 

IV. System Openness: Reeman AMR Supports SDK/API; AGVs Typically Operate as Closed Systems

 

The Reeman AMR chassis provides developers with open SDK and API interfaces, enabling free secondary development, integration of upper-layer control logic, and modification of upper structures. Whether for delivery robots, inspection robots, AMR transport robots, or customised robots, rapid development and deployment can be achieved on the Reeman chassis. In contrast, most AGV chassis systems are closed and lack scalability, struggling to meet the demands of modern flexible manufacturing.

 

V. Application Scenarios: Broader Coverage for AMR, Greater Limitations for AGV

 

Reeman AMR chassis are suitable for diverse scenarios including warehousing logistics, 3C electronics, pharmaceutical distribution, automotive components, semiconductors, and food packaging. Supporting cross-floor operation, lift coordination, and automatic charging, they can accommodate various upper structures for multifunctional expansion.

 

VI. Data Validation: Reeman AMR Chassis Exceeds 3,000 Units Annually

 

To date, Reeman's AMR robot chassis has achieved cumulative shipments exceeding 3,000 units globally, with an average stable operating duration surpassing 20,000 hours. This establishes it as a highly stable platform validated by numerous industrial clients and system integrators. Both in algorithm maturity and product reliability, Reeman has reached an industry-leading stage of development.

 

VII. AGVs represent 'passive mobility', whilst AMRs embody 'autonomous intelligence'.

 

With its out-of-the-box functionality, open SDK, robust obstacle avoidance capabilities and high stability, Reeman's AMR robot chassis is increasingly becoming the preferred choice for manufacturing enterprises seeking to customise robots and upgrade to unmanned material handling. For factories pursuing flexible production and low operational costs, selecting Reeman's AMR chassis means choosing the core driving force of future manufacturing.
