IN Brief:
- Automha and Comau are using LogiMAT 2026 to present an end-to-end offer covering inbound handling, storage, retrieval, order preparation, and shipping.
- The line-up combines multidirectional shuttle AS/RS, AMRs, software orchestration, and wearable exoskeletons for material handling tasks.
- The commercial pitch is clear: fewer integration gaps between storage, movement, and operator-assist systems in 3PL and manufacturing environments.
Automha and Comau are using LogiMAT 2026 in Stuttgart to make a broader warehouse automation case, bundling storage, internal transport, operator assistance, and software coordination into a single intralogistics proposition.
The two companies said the combined offer is intended to cover the full logistics flow, from inbound product handling through automated storage and retrieval to order preparation and outbound shipping. For warehouse operators, especially in 3PL and high-variability fulfilment environments, the attraction is not any one machine in isolation but the prospect of tighter orchestration between systems that are often bought and deployed in separate layers.
Automha’s Quaterways shuttle is central to that pitch. The system can move orthogonally along aisles and into storage channels, which the company says reduces cycle times, increases storage density, and simplifies architecture compared with more rigid shuttle layouts. Integrated with Automha’s warehouse management system, it is designed to manage multiple pallet formats within the same channel and dynamically optimise movement paths. Autosat GTR, the latest version of the company’s established shuttle platform, also forms part of the offer.
On the Comau side, the line-up includes MyMR autonomous mobile robots for software-driven material movement between storage and production areas, alongside the MATE-XT and MATE-XB wearable exoskeletons aimed at reducing shoulder and lower-back strain during repetitive handling tasks such as unloading and manual sorting. Pietro Gorlier, CEO of Comau, said the companies were positioned to deliver turnkey solutions across the intralogistics value chain as automation demand continues to rise.
The pressure on operators to reduce interfaces, compress implementation risk, and get more throughput from existing footprints continues to shape warehouse investment decisions. In that context, integrated offerings are increasingly being judged not only on the performance of individual systems, but on how well they connect across storage, movement, and fulfilment workflows.
