About the A-MATE® Lite

A-MATE® Lite is K.Hartwall's compact autonomous counterbalanced mobile robot, introduced in 2025 specifically to automate smaller load carriers than those targeted by the 1,000 kg FreeLift and Counter models. It transports loads up to 600 kg, including half-Euro pallets, dollies, roll containers, foldable cages and customized carriers, and uses a fully electric 300 mm FreeLift mechanism for floor-to-floor and specialized pick-and-drop operations. Despite being the smallest A-MATE, Lite retains high-level autonomy features including omnidirectional mobility, natural-feature LiDAR navigation, 3D load-carrier detection, 3D obstacle detection, autonomous obstacle avoidance and 360° safety monitoring. Its adjustable fork carriage and compact 800 mm width make it particularly suited to narrow production and warehouse environments. Optional VDA 5050/ROKIT connectivity and K.Hartwall's A-GATE middleware provide integration into multi-robot and higher-level intralogistics systems.

Typical applications: Logistics & Warehousing, Manufacturing & Industrial Operations, Intralogistics.
