Enabling AGVs and AMRs for Industrial Automation with Private 5G

In today’s manufacturing landscape, reliance on traditional wired and wireless networks presents significant challenges. Emerging manufacturing automation use cases, such as automated guided vehicles (AGV), autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and connected forklifts, demand wireless connectivity in sprawling outdoor yards, and inside warehouses stacked with tall metal shelves.

Using Wi-Fi for AGV/AMR deployment is unreliable and results in several connectivity issues including coverage gaps, poor handoff, high latency, poor scalability, and more. 

Celona’s 5G solution architect explores the technical challenges of deploying AGVs/AMRs and highlights why Private 5G is a superior alternative to Wi-Fi. You will learn from Celona’s real-world deployments and receive a checklist for designing and deploying your own Private 5G network.

By the end of this session you will understand how to evaluate network performance and build a strong business case for their organization, focusing on total cost of ownership (TCO) and return on investment (ROI).
