Seegrid Corporation, globalleader of robotic vision-guided automated guided vehicles (AGVs), announcedDMLogic as the preferred integration partner for Seegrid Supervisor, networkappliance installed on-site, which communicates with AGVs over WiFi.

For customers choosing tointegrate Seegrid Supervisor with an existing software system, such as aWarehouse Management System (WMS) or Manufacturing Execution System (MES),DMLogic created a standard Application Programming Interface (API), providing aplatform for capturing and exchanging tasks automatically with SeegridAGVs.  Automating transactions further improves return on investment andcreates a seamless channel between the Seegrid Supervisor, customer’s softwaresystem, and Seegrid AGVs.

The DMLogic API automates theexchange of task level information between a customer’s software system andSeegrid Supervisor.  Tasks are captured and queued for the disposition ofthe AGVs; once the movements are finished, notifications are automaticallyconfirmed back to the host software system updating the task as complete.

“DMLogic is a market leaderin warehouse solution consulting and our collective partnership provides anincreased value proposition for customers,” stated Jeff Christensen, Directorof Product Development for Seegrid. “DMLogic’s interface allows customers tofully integrate Seegrid AGVs with their chosen software system, improvingoverall facility productivity and efficiency and optimizing material flow andthroughput.”
