Payload Center of Gravity
Center of gravity is a critical factor when placing items on the AMR for transport. Keep the payload's
center of gravity centered over the AMR's own center of gravity and as low as possible. This provides
optimum stability, particularly when the AMR traverses irregularities in the floor.
MD-650 has a maximum payload of 650 kg, while MD-900 has a maximum payload of 900 kg. This
includes the payload structure and any load carried by that structure. The center of gravity of the com-
bined mass of the payload structure, including all onboard tooling and loads being transported, must
be within the specified limits. These limits must be observed to ensure stability while in the AMR is in
motion and also while loading and un-loading payloads.
WARNING
Tipping hazards are more likely if the payload center of gravity is outside the recom-
mended specifications.
Make the following considerations when designing and implementing your payload.
• If the payload overhangs or extends outward dynamically from the AMR (such as a robotic arm), it
has a greater effect on the center of gravity. This is particularly important if the payload is also con-
veying objects that add additional mass.
• If the payload can shift during AMR movement, consider its effect on the AMR's center of gravity.
• If the AMR's center of gravity is offset from the payload's center of gravity due to uneven load distri-
bution, the maximum stable speed of the AMR may need to be reduced from default settings. It is
