THiRa Robotics Launches AMRs for Navigating Diverse Facilities

THiRA Robotics, a Korean AMR developer and subsidiary of THiRA UTech, will provide AMRs to navigate healthcare, manufacturing, and supply chain facilities in the U.S. market. The launch coincides with Promat 2023, held in Chicago starting March 20th. At Promat, the company will introduce five models and show them operating on uneven and sloped flooring. 

“Some plants with poor conditions struggle to integrate AMR successfully. Now, older manufacturers don’t need to remodel to integrate. With THIRA ROBOTICS, robotization is possible for facilities not fit for automation,” says Peter Kim, CEO of THIRA ROBOTICS. “Our next-generation technology improves existing solutions by offering real-life-ready logistics AMRs to handle imperfect floors and high traffic for U.S. industries to solve labor shortages and other market gaps.” THIRA ROBOTICS AMR can operate on damaged floors, changing surroundings, high traffic, liquid spills, slopes, narrow spaces, and elevators.   

Accelerating AMR innovation in South Korea’s competitive market, which leads the world in automation, allowed THiRA Robotics to win all bids against established AMR makers. At Promat, the company will introduce five models and show them operating on uneven and sloped flooring. 

“At the National Cancer Center, the #1 clinical research center in Korea, our AMRs augmented hospital staff and piloted 24/7 patient and nurse-assistance services. We streamlined factory processes for cosmetics conglomerate AmorePacific, where split warehousing and manufacturing facilities with complex traffic and high order volume slowed production,” said Kim.
