Manufacturers and logistics providers face growing pressure to boost productivity, overcome labor shortages, and build more flexible operations that can adapt to shifting market demands. Meanwhile, advances in artificial intelligence, sensing technologies, and robotics are opening new opportunities to automate tasks that were once difficult or impractical to scale.

This webinar examines two key technologies reshaping factory automation: Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs)/Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and humanoid robotics. Attendees will learn how these solutions are used in manufacturing and warehouse settings, how AMR and AGV architectures differ, and how humanoid robots are advancing from repetitive-task systems into intelligent platforms that can operate in human-centered environments.

This session is intended for engineering leaders, product designers, automation specialists, operations managers, manufacturing engineers, warehouse and logistics professionals, and technology decision-makers exploring automation strategies.

Participants will learn how Molex solutions help address key robotics pain points and design challenges, including compact architecture, reliable high-speed data transmission, rugged power and signal connectivity, harsh-environment performance, and scalable assembly. 

Key Points:

  • Why Factory Automation is Accelerating
  • AMRs vs AGVs: Understanding the Difference
  • Humanoid Robotics: The Next Frontier
  • Customer Pain Points and Engineering Challenges, Molex Solutions
