As the push for automation in manufacturing continues to accelerate, the integration of autonomous mobile robots (AMRS) with flexible conveyor systems is transforming the landscape of material flow. A notable breakthrough is the collaboration between OMRON and Interroll, where the OMRON LD 90 AMR plays a central role in unlocking the full potential of Interroll’s new LCP AMR Top Module.
Designed for dynamic environments, the LD 90 is part of OMRON’s powerful fleet of mobile robots, engineered to navigate complex industrial settings safely and efficiently. When paired with Interroll’s LCP AMR Top Module, a plug-and-play conveyor platform built to handle lightweight goods, the LD 90 forms a complete, scalable solution bridging the gap between stationary and mobile automation.
The timing of this partnership is perfect. With skill shortages, rising costs and competitive pressures impacting the industry, manufacturers are turning to advanced automation for greater resilience and productivity. Experts project that the global AMR market will surge to over $220 billion by 2030, growing by more than 18% annually. Solutions like the LD 90 and the LCP AMR Top Module are well-positioned to meet this demand.
The LD 90’s precision, reliability and seamless integration capabilities were crucial in Interroll’s comprehensive pre-launch testing. Consequently, Interroll officially recommends OMRON’s robots for use with the Top Module, a testament to the compatibility and performance of this joint solution.
System integrators also benefit from this synergy. With pre-certified compatibility, minimal engineering effort is required to deploy the LD 90 and LCP module into existing production, storage or packaging environments. Interroll’s Layouter tool further simplifies the design and implementation process, drastically cutting project timelines.
Together, OMRON and Interroll offer an elegant, modular approach to material flow automation: flexible, scalable, and future-ready. As part of OMRON’s AMR strategic partner network, the LCP AMR Top Module is available exclusively through certified integration channels, ensuring expert support and successful deployment.
By combining OMRON’s robotics expertise with Interroll’s conveyor innovation, this solution enables manufacturers to boost efficiency, reduce downtime and keep pace with the evolving demands of smart production.
