NorthShore Care Supply Case Study
Discover how Vector, Kingpin, and EnZone helped a national B2C company double its output efficiency just months after deployment.
An AMR Solution Made for Autonomous Operation
The Waypoint Vector comes fully equipped and ready for use — so adding it to your operation won’t slow things down. The Waypoint Dispatcher makes it easy for you to setup and operate. And Vector is ROS Native, so it will always be flexible and future-proof.
Why Waypoint AMRs for Factories & Manufacturing
Workforce First:
All Waypoint autonomous mobile robots are built for the people who put them to work. Easy to set up, operate, and reconfigure.
15 Minutes to Autonomy:
Waypoint AMRs can be fully deployed in under 15 minutes and feature intuitive and powerful facility mapping that make mission set-up simple and straightforward.
Omnidirectional Mobility:
Waypoint AMRs can move in any direction and in any orientation with precision and speed so they will dock into a workcell any way you want.
Intuitive Setup:
With Dispatcher™, intuitive and powerful, facility mapping and mission set-up has never been easier. Make changes in minutes to adapt to your evolving needs.
Superior Mapping & Navigation:
Waypoint AMRs are designed to reliably move in real-world environments without infrastructure changes and Waypoint Embedded™ makes this possible by high speed, real time, sensor fusion within Waypoint’s proprietary robot controller.
Common Sense Robot Control:
Use Waypoint Whistle™ to call and send robots on missions. Initiate missions at the push of a button. Easy and intuitive device to call a robot when you need it and send it where you want it to go. Whistle is automatically set-up and custom configurable.
Built Tough:
All-metal construction easily withstands the daily grind of industrial environments. With a high payload capacity and industrial-strength mecanum wheels, Vector and MAV3K are designed to perform in factory and manufacturing settings.
System Integration:
Waypoint mobile robots can be easily integrated with other systems, allowing Vector and MAV3K to work seamlessly and collaboratively with other manufacturing machines and robots.
Network Independence:
Once a mission is assigned, Waypoint AMRs do not require WiFi or an internet connection to complete the task. All intelligence required is built into the robot so they can do their job without dependence on a centralized transportation controller or relying on network bandwidth.
It used to be true that robots were reserved for the titans of industry, but not anymore. Waypoint has created industrial grade robots that are accessible to everyone. We want to give workers and small business owners the technological leverage they need to compete. No talented tradesperson wants to spend his or her time pushing a cart when they could be focused on more valuable tasks.

Options & Top Modules for Factory Applications
Wireless Charging
EnZone™ is a wireless energy transmission system for autonomous charging, opportunity charging, and on-demand payload power even when the robot is operating, keeping it up and running through multiple shifts.
Lift Loads & Hitch to Carts
Waypoint Kingpin™ is a simple but powerful device that enables Waypoint’s industrial strength, omnidirectional AMRs to load and unload payloads AND to connect to a variety of standard carts offering the ultimate in flexibility for material movement.
Cobot Arm
Waypoint’s integrated cobot arm is great for automated machine tending, automatic handling, loading, or unloading; and this mobile manipulator it’s never been easier to set-up and use.
Conveyor Deck
Bridge the gap between conveyor systems with our conveyor deck – automate the loading and unloading to workcells with input/output conveyors.
Vector Shelf
The Vector Shelf allows you to move your materials with confidence; it is custom designed for Vector to hold your goods during transport.
