ABB Robotics Adds AI Visual SLAM Autonomous Forklift, Completing AMR Portfolio

ABB Robotics has launched a new autonomous forklift to complete its AI-powered Visual SLAM AMR portfolio, according to TruckNet UK reporting. The addition gives buyers a full-stack AMR range covering picking, transport, and now pallet/forklift handling under one vendor ecosystem, with Visual SLAM enabling markerless deployment in brown-field warehouses. For overseas buyers evaluating AMR suppliers, the release raises competitive pressure on Chinese AMR makers to match integrated navigation and forklift-grade payload performance.
