40% Efficiency Improvement: AiTEN Robotics' Innovative Application in an Engine Manufacturing Company

A leading automotive engine manufacturer, in order to meet the demand for intelligent logistics in the field and promote the upgrade of intelligent manufacturing, the company introduced AiTEN MP10S handling robots to build an efficient and accurate intelligent logistics system through the collaborative operation of AGVs and manual forklifts.

Project Highlights

1. Intelligent Technology Landing

• Deploying 10 sets of AiTEN MP10S handling robots, supporting laser SLAM navigation and a multi-machine scheduling system, adapting to the complex dynamic environment.
• It ensures safe operation of human-vehicle mixing and dynamic obstacle avoidance with a response time of less than 1 second.

 2. Data-Driven Management Upgrading

• Real-time collection of material data in the whole process, with a distribution accuracy rate of 99.99%, eliminating errors and omissions;
• An intelligent system to achieve the digital management of task allocation, path optimisation and abnormal early warning.

 3. Efficiency and Cost Breakthroughs

• Operational efficiency increased by more than 40%, and the average daily handling capacity of a single robot can reach 200 pallets.
• Save labour and management costs of more than 5 million yuan per year, with a return on investment cycle of less than 1.5 years.

Project Results and Benefits

Labour optimization: directly reduce 10 porters, reduce labour cost by 30%, release employees to transfer to high-value positions.

Efficiency Improvement: On-time material delivery rate of the engine production line increased from 85% to 98%, and downtime waiting time was reduced by 60%.

On-site management: Standardised zoning of logistics areas, combined with AGV path planning, reduces congestion by 90%.

Economic benefits: annual comprehensive cost savings of more than 5 million yuan, equipment utilisation rate increased to 95%.

Long-term value: Lay the foundation for subsequent MES system integration and support the transformation to the smart factory.

Summary

The engine manufacturer has successfully achieved ‘human-machine cooperation and data interconnection’ in the field by introducing the AiTEN MP10S handling robot:

• Technology empowerment: AGV and artificial forklift work together, cracking the traditional logistics pain points.
• Management upgrade: data visualisation management of the whole process, driving lean production;
• Significant benefits: efficiency and cost optimisation are both achieved, establishing the industry as the most effective way to optimise the cost of production. Significant benefits: efficiency and cost optimisation reach the double standard, setting up a replicable model for the industry.

The project not only provides a reference path of intelligent logistics transformation for the auto parts manufacturing industry, but also lays a solid foundation for the enterprise to expand the application of AIoT technology and deepen the layout of intelligent manufacturing.
