Maxolution MR P1600 Expands Scalable Mobile Robotics for Intralogistics
Mobile robotics is increasingly shaping intralogistics systems that require flexible transport, scalable fleet expansion, and reduced downtime. Maxolution’s MR P1600 is designed to support these re...
Mobile robotics is no longer limited to pilot projects or isolated automation cells. In large-scale intralogistics environments, systems must now support heavy payload transport, continuous operation, and seamless scaling. The MR P1600 from Maxolution reflects this transition toward infrastructure-level mobile automation.

Maxolution MR P1600 designed for high-load pallet transport in industrial environments.
Heavy Payload, Precision Movement
The MR P1600 is designed for industrial pallet logistics where both weight and positioning accuracy matter.
It supports payloads up to 1600 kg and maintains a travel speed of 1.6 m/s.
With ±4 mm docking precision, it can reliably interface with transfer stations and automated loading systems.
This level of accuracy places it in the heavy-duty AMR segment, where repeatability directly affects production stability.
Control Integration Across Automation Layers
The system supports EtherCAT communication combined with FSoE safety integration.
This enables direct use in modern distributed control architectures while maintaining functional safety compliance.
For hybrid environments, hardwired safety I/O remains available, ensuring compatibility with legacy PLC systems.
Fleet coordination uses VDA 5050 over WLAN, enabling multi-robot interoperability without vendor lock-in.

Standardized MR P1600 platform supporting scalable fleet deployment.
Scaling Without Rebuilding the System
One of the biggest challenges in mobile robotics is scaling without redesigning infrastructure.
MR P1600 addresses this through a standardized platform and modular load handling architecture.
Facilities can start with a small fleet and expand incrementally without reengineering material flow logic.
This reduces commissioning effort and allows automation growth to follow production demand.
Wireless Charging as Operational Infrastructure

Movitrans inductive charging enables contactless energy transfer.
The MR P1600 integrates with the Movitrans inductive charging system.
Energy transfer occurs wirelessly, eliminating physical contact points and reducing maintenance requirements.
Opportunity charging during idle cycles improves fleet availability and reduces the total number of required units.
Editorial Perspective
Mobile robotics is moving toward infrastructure-level deployment rather than isolated automation units.
Systems like the MR P1600 demonstrate how standardization, modularity, and charging automation converge into scalable intralogistics platforms.
