Fluctuating volumes, increasingly tight deadlines and pressure on resources: warehouse automation must become more agile without compromising long-term investments. To meet these challenges, BOA Concept Group has partnered with KUKA, a global leader in robotics, to integrate its autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) into its range of modular solutions.

Why Does Warehouse Automation Need to Become More Flexible?

Automation must adapt to the pace and operations of e-commerce and retail businesses, as well as logistics service providers, to support their long-term development. Today, these organisations must cope with rapidly changing volumes, increasingly demanding performance requirements and growing pressure on resources.

For supply chain managers, the challenge is to meet ever-shorter deadlines and secure operations while balancing immediate performance, operational efficiency and long-term investment value.

This conviction has guided BOA Concept Group for nearly fifteen years: designing intralogistics systems that evolve alongside its customers’ needs and growth. This approach is built on a range of flexible solutions that can be reconfigured as operations change.

How Can AMRs Be Integrated into a Warehouse Automation System?

AMRs can be seamlessly integrated into warehouse installations thanks to the open architecture of the BOA system and a software suite that orchestrates all equipment. With more than 50 years of robotics expertise, KUKA brings a new mobile robotics solution to BOA Concept’s offering, complementing its modular material-handling systems.

What Are the Use Cases for Autonomous Mobile Robots in Warehouses?

AMRs can meet a wide range of operational needs, such as connecting remote areas, supplying workstations or setting up temporary work areas. They extend modular material-handling flows into areas where fixed equipment would be less suitable, while supporting BOA’s flexible automation model.

Manage AMRs and Modular Conveyors with a Single Software Suite

The BOA Central Suite execution software orchestrates all equipment within a unified architecture. It provides a consistent view of collected data, real-time flow control and system visualisation, whether managing conveyors or mobile robots.

“With KUKA, our aim is not simply to add a mobile robot to our portfolio, but to integrate a new automation component into a comprehensive approach to flow management. Our customers need greater agility without locking their logistics operations into a rigid system or multiplying independent solutions. The complementary nature of our modular material-handling equipment and KUKA’s AMRs, orchestrated by our BOA Central Suite execution software, enables us to refine the solutions we offer our customers while preserving our core principles: modular, scalable installations that can adapt over time to changing business needs.” Patrice Henrion, Managing Director of BOA Concept Group

Why Are BOA Concept Group and KUKA Joining Forces?

Because their expertise is complementary. BOA Concept is expanding its portfolio with a new mobile robotics solution, while KUKA benefits from BOA’s practical understanding of warehouse operational challenges to better identify mobile robotics use cases and strengthen its position in the intralogistics market.

“Our partnership with BOA Concept Group reflects KUKA’s ambition to strengthen its presence in the intralogistics market by working with partners that offer extensive industry expertise and an in-depth understanding of logistics challenges. Our goal is to give more companies access to the benefits of autonomous mobile robotics through integrated, reliable and long-lasting solutions.” Marcus Ferreira de Sousa, CEO of KUKA Benelux & France

Scalable Automation: How Can You Protect Your Investment Over Time?

By designing the installation for long-term use from the outset. Lasting performance depends as much on the equipment as on the control software that fully integrates it into the warehouse. At BOA, this approach is based on modular, scalable systems.

By integrating KUKA’s AMRs, BOA Concept strengthens its commitment to scalable automation: enabling installations to evolve smoothly, extending equipment service life and eliminating the need for dismantling.
