- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- Fox Robotics is the first to offer an automated forklift that can unload pallets from trailers to receiving docks. Fox takes a standard lift truck and adds sensors and software to enable self-driving with precise navigation and robust pallet picking and movement.
The unloader unloads over 25 pallets per hour and requires just a few minutes of operator attention for each trailer.

At Fox we make robots that work.
We make robots that do useful work and that do it well. We make robots whose value is obvious and who can quickly pay for themselves.
We make robots that work because they are a human multiplier. They make it possible for us to do more with less. And doing more with less is really, really important. It is how we grow our economy, reduce environmental impacts, provide higher-paying jobs and fund social services.
We make robots that work because it will make life better.

Notice how everything is perfectly set up for the robots. The floors are perfectly clean. Practically waxed. The loads are not wobbly at all and are perfectly wrapped. The pallets the loads are on are defect free. Logistical environments are hardly a picture of perfection and neither are the loads.
Yea I'd imagine if this kind of technology ever takes off the issues that exist in real warehouses and not showpiece ones would make it extremely difficult to roll these out on a large scale.
Dont worry those are easy fixes.
Yeah you will still need people, but you will need higher trained people and your doing less of the busy work
I'm sure people said the same about cars needing "clean, paved roads" and would never be replaced by horse and buggy 😂
There will be robots to clean and maintain the warehouse, and humans are dirty creatures
So humans have to pick up the mess when the automated forklift dumps a skid on the floor 😆
They would make a robot to do that.
WRONG! The load is not finished until the trailer is swept out!
It would be nice to see this lift unload a nasty JB Hunt.
Well being that all the pallets are unloaded spaces out, the robots just made unloading the dock less efficient while unloading the truck more efficient. I wonder if it can handle unloading double stacked sardine packed trucks
Legit video. 👏
ouch feel bad the fork lift drivers ... they now drive themselves
Yeah that's why I got into inventory control. I still operate forklifts of many types but I'm working toward the more logistics end of the workforce. Hopefully I'll be able to retire before automation erases my job.
Works Good I operate one
let's see what happens when they get a load that fell over
I mean i can unload a full double stack trailer with 60 pallets in 20 minutes. They can do in 24 hours what i can do in 8 hours
It's only going to take one forklift to malfunction and go array right into the warehouse racks destroying the whole warehouse in one crash 😂
Maybe you are aware about one-shot loading warehouse system? Are those robots better than it?
Good
My job just got the fox forklift and I'm having a hard time with getting the forklift to start the very first run
Have you noticed only one person working in which it should have been at least five people working there goes our jobs
Yup - instead of be happy that robots took hard jobs and people are free - we are getting jobless. This is the capitalism way.
that's the whole point
Most of our customers struggle to fill the headcount necessary to process the volume that they receive. There’s a major labor shortage, mostly because these jobs are unsafe and monotonous and don’t pay well, so nobody wants to work them. Our robots keep the workers safe and free them up to do higher-skilled, less monotonous labor.
@@foxroboticsinc I agree.
I would like to see it go into and out of trailer.
Here’s a video that shows that pretty clearly:

Why doesn't the woman just drive a normal forklift. She is there anyway?
How many variables can it handle at one time?
Hi, do you have one which can pick up loaded 1050/1100kgs pallets from the palletising robotic arm and then stack it on floor scenario at 2 pallets in heights, later to load trucks ???
Thank you very much.
This is gonna be the wave of the future alot of people are gonna lose there jobs to these robots and machines. Give it 5 to 10 years before they have robots working and moving boxes around and counting boxes.
Yeah can these work outside in the rain and snow on uneven surfaces with potholes while caring a double stack and avoid hitting random people walking behind you and do it at the speed of light😂 I think not.
I love this!
No this is taking peoples jobs !!!
What company only receives 19 pallets on a trailer, all strait on the truck. Would love to see this work in a real world scenario because this video is nothing like the real world. Real world ex-samples The room these seem to need to just put out 19 pallets from one trailer and how clean this floor looks, walk around any warehouse in the US and the floor is not this nice there is always some kind of garbage on the floor shrink-rap broken pieces of pallets and on the inside of a trailer. I wood love to see this really work but can't see it in the real world. Just my two cents.
Automation isn’t a good fit for all warehouses. Like you said, some environments aren’t a good fit. Our robot can deal with surprisingly difficult conditions, but like you said, some jobs are too complicated for an AI. Our customers generally are 3PL, manufacture and grocery receiving docks that do receive the same type of load all day, every day. They receive high volume and we help their teams focus on the less mundane aspects of logistics.
I want to see it unload a Walgreens
Chcialabym pracowac na owijarkach😊😊👌👌👌
I see always an unloading , what is statue for loading ? Which set up mandatory about trailer do you need ?
We have prototypes of trailer loading that are successfully running, but it’s not ready to ship quite yet. It’s one of our top engineering priorities right now, and we should be officially launching it soon enough.
@foxroboticsinc It's been a year since you posted this comment. Did the trailer loading come to fruition? Are there any videos?
I want an Amazon van with a robot forklift deliver packages on pallets at front doors
Je voit que l employée doit scanner les pallette il faudrait des grand qr code lisible par la caméra du chariot élévateur
Also what about racking tf lol 😂 or fitting into those spots that shouldn’t be fit into at an angle
The unloading is the easy part then someone has to check the product, then they have to put in on the racks, then restock it, then it has to be slotted then it has to be picked from, then palletized then loaded again then driven to it's destination😂 they are basically saving like 10 mins on a load, a human can do it in 10 mins.
Works 24 hours a day and doesn’t complain or die like humans
@CaptainCooter Robots break alot. Especially under stress
Any contact for more information
Wow how many people are put out off work how much money do companies save 🤔🤔🤔🤔
That's a huge concern, isn't it? We're finding that our customers are often using this robot to bridge the shortages in the labor market. Warehouses are having a lot of trouble staffing workers. Forklift driving is extremely dangerous, and many forklift drivers have to end their careers in warehousing early because of accidents.
The cool thing is that those people are now able to manage a fleet of robots. It's safer for the humans, it often leads to a higher pay rate for the robot manager, and the supply chain shortages that are linked to a lack of labor are being addressed.
All companies are doing this and will find sales down when no one has money to buy their stuff
Companies don't have to pay a robotic forklift PTO(PAID TIME OFF), Sick leave, 401K, pension, benefits, an employee complaining about the pay is not enough, racial, gender, etc. lawsuits, a stupid human forklift driver knocking down isles in the warehouse destroying products. The list goes on.
@@patrickray2329 who gonna buy the stuff when no one is working?
@@notgonnlie5119 learn how to get involved in technology and learn how to work on this type of equipment.

We have two robot forks at work and man they are miles behind if they think they will replace humans, this machines are hella slow you can even notice on the video they edit the speed. The robot forks are hopeless, but in saying that imagine a world where robots take over the Labour force and humans just sit back and relax at home damn that would be the day
Why is she not sweating? It’s a warehouse
Whilst it may save on Labor costs it could be done by humans in half the time easily
Our customers often find themselves in a few scenarios: they either need to unload a lot of trailers on a daily basis or they are having trouble staffing their warehouses (an increasingly large problem). In both cases, our automation is the difference between product sitting on the truck and product being moved through the warehouse system.
But it good question :what is thé speed and why is not more fast ?
@Blue Wolf humans are always going to be needed in our workforce. Automation will become more and more useful over time (we currently handle double-stacked loads just fine, and in volume), but humans will always be there to direct the robots.
@@logistickiller8769 we unload about 24-25 picks per hour. The limitation on speed is due to automated safety systems. The robots move at the max speeds specified by US federal specs for the conditions they’re in. They slow down when entering and exiting the trailer, when placing a pick, or when a moving entity (person, manual fork truck, etc…) is detected to be nearby.
Guess my pit 21 license is useless now
Good luck finding a decent job that cannot be taken over by robotics.
Not impressed.
🇺🇸❤️
Shyt🤨
More jobs lost. Woo hoo.
I'm a forklift technician.
I wonder if they can design a robot to travel to sites. Service Repair Diagnose faults and rectify.🥱🤔
