3

Accurate Control and Coordination

Movect enables precise control over robot operations, allowing fleet managers to monitor their status, location, and performance in real-time.

4

Efficient Scheduling

Movect facilitates efficient scheduling of tasks, taking into account factors such as priority, robot capabilities, and optimal routes.

5

Interoperability and Integration

Movect supports interoperability by communicating with robots using standard protocols.

6

Data-Driven Insights

Movect collects and analyses data from the robots, generating valuable insights and performance metrics.

1

Dynamic Task Assignment

Dynamic task assignment in Movect optimises task allocation based on real-time conditions, improving efficiency, resource utilisation, and adaptability to changing requirements.

2

Path Planning

Path planning in Movect for robots involves determining efficient routes, avoiding collisions, adapting to changes, and optimising task sequences for enhanced productivity and safety in robotic operations.

3

Task Management

Movect involves efficient task assignment, scheduling, monitoring, and coordination to optimise productivity, prioritise tasks, and ensure streamlined robotic operations.

4

Opportunistic Charging

Movect identifies opportunities for charging during idle or low-demand periods to minimise downtime and ensure uninterrupted operations. By intelligently scheduling charging sessions, the FMS optimises energy management and maximises the robots’ utilisation.

5

Simulation

Simulation using Movect is adept for analysing and optimising fleet performance, assessing risks, testing strategies, and facilitating training in a controlled virtual environment. It helps enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve decision-making for fleet management.

6

Statistics

The statistical capabilities of Movect enable data-driven decision-making, performance analysis, and optimisation of fleet operations. By leveraging statistical insights, fleet managers can identify areas for improvement, increase operational efficiency, and drive better outcomes for their fleet.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a robot fleet management system?

    A robot fleet management system coordinates many mobile robots from one platform, and Addverb Movect assigns tasks, plans paths, manages charging and tracks the performance of robot fleets from a single dashboard. Movect communicates with each robot through standard protocols and balances work across the fleet so no robot sits idle while orders wait. It manages Addverb's Zippy sorting robots and autonomous mobile robots and others, including several fleets in one building.

  • How does Movect assign tasks and plan robot paths?

    Movect uses dynamic task assignment to give each job to the best-placed available robot, then applies path planning with collision avoidance to route it through the shortest safe path to its destination. Assignments update as new orders arrive, robots finish tasks or a route becomes blocked. Traffic management at intersections and narrow aisles helps prevent deadlocks, which keeps throughput steady as the fleet grows.

  • What is opportunistic charging in Movect?

    Opportunistic charging in Movect sends robots to top up their batteries during idle or low-demand periods, so the fleet stays available at peak times without long charging stops in the middle of a shift. Movect watches battery levels and order demand together, then schedules short charges when the work allows. This reduces the number of spare robots needed to cover charging time and supports multi-shift operation.

  • Can Movect simulate a robot fleet before deployment?

    Yes, Movect includes simulation that models robot numbers, routes, charging and order volumes on the actual site layout, so Addverb can size a fleet and test peak scenarios before any robot is installed. The same model helps operators plan for seasonal peaks or layout changes later. Its statistics module then compares live performance with the simulated plan, tracking robot utilisation, task times and throughput.

  • Where is Movect used today?

    Movect coordinates Addverb robot fleets in parcel, e-commerce and 3PL operations, including Mondial Relay in France, where 72 Zippy 10 sorting robots handle more than 3,000 sorts per hour across 280 destinations. Addverb also runs robot fleets for Landmark Group's e-commerce fulfilment and for Maersk. In each case Movect assigns tasks, manages charging and reports fleet performance from one dashboard.
