The Problem

At Bolloré Logistics’ Singapore facility, staff were manually moving tote bins and boxes that feed into and out of the warehouse’s automated storage and retrieval system. Moving these single‑piece or low‑volume loads by hand consumed valuable labor and slowed workflow. The company needed an adaptable automation solution that could integrate with existing processes, cope with changing layouts and boost productivity without adding staff, while maintaining safety standards.

Our Solution

Botsync deployed a MAG300 AMR equipped with a cage lifter module, tailored to Bolloré’s operations. The robot picks up filled trolleys and moves them automatically to the packaging area, then returns with empty trolleys. SyncOS integrates camera‑based detection so a task is triggered whenever an operator places a full trolley in the pick area. This means operators don’t need to assign tasks manually—the system does it for them and tracks trolley status, ensuring enough empty trolleys are always available.

Key Features

• Automated movement of tote bins and boxes: The MAG300 takes over the repetitive transport of small boxes and bins, reducing manual labor and improving efficiency.
• SyncOS‑enabled integration: Camera triggers and live tracking simplify operations. Operators place a full trolley in the pick area; the AMR picks it up and sends an empty one back, with minimal user input.
• Modular, flexible design: The MAG300’s modular build lets it adapt to changing warehouse layouts and operate safely around people, making it a good fit for dynamic logistics environments.

Impact on Operations

• Boosted productivity without extra manpower: Automation freed up staff time, increasing overall throughput without hiring more workers.
• Safety and efficiency sustained: Despite increased automation, the system works safely alongside human colleagues and keeps operations smooth.
• Scalability: After the success of this deployment, Bolloré Logistics plans to explore similar AMR solutions at other sites.

Conclusion

Botsync’s MAG300 with cage lifter has streamlined Bolloré Logistics’ material‑handling process. The solution eliminated manual movement of tote bins and boxes, saving roughly 90 hours of labor each month. By integrating seamlessly with existing workflows and maintaining safety, it improved efficiency and prepared the business for future growth.
