Payload Considerations
This section describes considerations and requirements for AMR payloads.
A payload is considered as any item(s) that are placed on the AMR for the purposes of securing,
transporting, and transferring some object. A payload structure is typically required to secure an object
during transport. The end user or an integrator is responsible for designing and implementing a pay-
load structure system. This system may include controls and other mechanical items to facilitate vari-
ous functions related to the operation of the AMR and the machinery that it interacts with.
Careful considerations for the center of gravity of the payload must be made. Refer to
on page 2-6 for more information.
DANGER
The end-user of the AMR must perform a risk assessment to identify and mitigate any
additional personal and property damage hazards caused by the payload.
WARNING
• The payload must be kept higher than the top of the AMR. If the payload or associ-
ated structure blocks any of the AMR's sensors, the AMR cannot function correctly.
• The user is responsible for the safety of the AMR, which includes confirming that
the system is stable with any payload, payload structure, or other attachments while
functioning in the specified operating environment.
• The total weight of your payload structure plus any objects carried by the structure
must not exceed the maximum payload capacity of the AMR.
• If the AMR transports containers of liquid or other non-solid material, consider the
effect on the AMR's stability if their contents can shift. It is the end user's responsi-
bility to ensure that the payload is properly secured to the AMR, and that payload
shifting does not create AMR instability.
Precautions for Safe Use
• You must ensure that the payload structure is properly secured to the AMR.
• Damaged or worn casters and drive wheels can degrade the AMR stability. You must regular-
ly inspect the casters and drive wheels for signs of damage, excessive wear, or uneven
spots.
• The payload or payload structure shall not be positioned in such a way that would put the op-
erator in danger while trying to reach an E-STOP button.
Additional Information
The AMR provides the electrical power and controls required to operate a payload structure.

Payload Structures
For typical AMR applications, a payload structure must be designed and constructed for operations
such as pickup, dropoff, and transportation of the payload.
The AMR provides threaded mounting holes for payload structure attachment. The mounting holes
provide a secure and adaptable method of attaching payload structures to the chassis. A payload
