How Should Warehouses Specify Flooring for Robotics?
Overview
This article explains how warehouse facilities should specify flooring for robotics operations. It highlights that floor selection must precede fleet deployment, considering factors like robot wheel types, navigation systems (lidar, fiducials), travel patterns, and surface properties such as flatness, friction, gloss, and wear resistance. The text discusses specific flooring options like ResinDek panels and coatings designed for robotic traffic, noting that concrete floors may require assessment or replacement if they introduce inconsistencies that disrupt robot sensors or movement. It advises collaboration between facilities teams, structural engineers, and robotics manufacturers to ensure the floor supports the intended operational environment.
