Case Study
A global leader in warehouse robotics partnered with MPC to solve a critical challenge: designing a bumper for a robotic conveyor system that could absorb high-impact collisions without compromising the sensitive electronics housed in their autonomous guided vehicles (AGV). The bumper needed to be rugged enough to withstand repeated contact at track corners and intersections, yet resilient enough to prevent damage during high-speed operations. MPC collaborated closely with the customer’s engineering team to develop a custom polyurethane formulation optimized for impact absorption and durability. Through rapid prototyping and iterative testing, MPC delivered a solution that enhanced system protection, reduced maintenance costs, and supported the successful launch of the customer’s next-generation robotic conveyance platform.
