I AM BOLT™
Bolt is our flagship autonomous mobile robot (AMR), offering unmatched power and efficiency, so customers never have to compromise. Driven by the success of our piece-picking robot, Swift™, we crafted Bolt with the same patented technology—and then some. Bolt uses the most powerful, adaptable, and collaborative AMR technology available. It’s ideal for e-commerce and manufacturing and built with scalability in mind. Experience the power to do more with Bolt.
Bolt Is Transforming Material Handling
AMRs follow two extremes: small and fast, or big and robust. As a result, warehouse operators and manufacturers always tell us they need a midline AMR. IAM Robotics answers that call with Bolt.
Bolt is Powerful
Bolt gives you the power to do more in a fast, just-the-right-size mobile robot. With an industry-leading design, Bolt moves materials faster, longer, and farther in mid-sized applications.
A Powerhouse of Performance
Made to move a range of light to heavy materials, Bolt gets the job done. It’s flexible in industrial applications, and has the largest payload capacity in its class at 300 kg (661 lb).
Get more done, faster and efficiently.
- Free-range navigation
- Speeds up to 2 m/s, saving 75 percent of walking time
- Zero-turn radius for on-point maneuverability
- Integrates with P&D conveyors in five seconds or less
Bolt works up to 20 hours over multiple shifts, thanks to our patented battery technology. Similar AMRs only last 10-13 hours. With Bolt, experience the power of:
- 20-hour runtimes on a single charge
- Hot-swappable lithium-ion battery 3.5X larger than similar AMRs
- One-person battery swapping in just 10 seconds
Cut On-Floor Labor in Half
Bolt carries twice the weight of a human worker and travels longer distances over a single shift. Reassign people to higher-value tasks and witness new operational efficiencies and increased worker satisfaction.
Bolt is Adaptable
AMRs must fulfill your needs the right way—every time. Bolt’s adaptability and flexibility keep you productive. It easily scales with your business, and allows you to pivot to accommodate changing consumer demands.
Customized Tops
The Bolt interface accepts a variety of tops to fit your needs, including custom tops. Leverage Bolt’s power take-off feature and connect custom tops for highly-specialized tasks.
Key Safety Features
- Back-drivable wheels
- 360-degree obstacle detection
- On-board emergency-stop buttons
- Safety lights
- Power-force-torque limiting
Direct-Drive Wheels
Most AMRs use a motor-driven approach to movement, with a motor going through a gearbox to transfer power to the robot’s wheels. But stopping requires lots of force, so they have bump sensors that detect obstacles and bypass the gearbox to stop the motor.
We knew there was a better way for Bolt: direct-drive wheels. Bolt has sensitive force feedback, turning its whole body into a bump sensor. When Bolt senses even light contact, it sends a signal to the motors, quickly stopping the robot.
IAM Robotics is Devoted to More
IAM Robotics is the future of material handling. Our mobile robotics platform powers operational excellence in an on-demand world. We’re transforming the supply chain, and Bolt is leading the way in autonomous warehouse productivity.
