ICOS, short for “In Case Of Stop”, is our specially developed solution designed to ensure continuity in logistics and production, even when the unexpected happens. The solution is developed as a practical supplement to automation with AGILOX ONE AMRs, clearly demonstrating our dedication to delivering flexible and reliable automation solutions.
Even in the most smooth-running automation, an unexpected stop can occur. If an AGILOX ONE AMR stops in the middle of a transport task, it can create bottlenecks in logistics and disrupt production. This is where ICOS comes into play. The mobile hydraulic pallet jack makes it possible to move the AMR quickly and safely, so operations can continue without lengthy interruptions.
ICOS is developed to handle different scenarios. It can move:
The AGILOX ONE with the load carrier
Remove the load carrier and transport it separately
Transport the AMR without the load carrier
This flexibility makes ICOS a versatile tool that ensures stability throughout the logistics flow. This means that production can be kept running, even if a robot unexpectedly needs to be taken out of operation.
ICOS is constructed in black powder-coated steel and consists of two mobile units (a left and a right), as well as a transport bracket and a crossbar that functions as both a handle and a stabilizer. The robust construction ensures reliability and a long lifespan, while remaining easy to handle in high-pressure situations.
Automation generates massive gains in efficiency, but that is precisely why an unexpected downtime can have major consequences. Therefore, thinking ahead with backup solutions is necessary. ICOS is developed with this exact purpose: ensuring that automation always supports the needs of the business, even when challenges arise.
