How Can Autonomous Forklifts Turn Existing Stretch Wrappers into Automated Packaging Workstations? — REEMAN Ironhide Wireless Docking and Jingmen Factory Deployment

REEMAN outlines an approach for retrofitting existing stretch wrappers using Ironhide autonomous forklifts: the forklift handles pallet pickup, placement, and warehouse transport, while the stretch wrapper continues to perform packaging, requiring a machine control interface, status feedback, and safety interlocks. In its wireless docking demonstration, pickup alignment deviation was within 2 cm and turntable placement deviation was within 5 cm, with the demonstration process taking about 6 minutes. There is also an Ironhide 3.0 deployment at a factory in Jingmen, Hubei; the two applications are independent of each other, and the data comes from REEMAN application materials and has not been independently verified.
