Zebra and Ivanti Wavelink Team Partner to Increase Material Movement Productivity in Warehouse and Manufacturing Operations
Zebra Technologies Corporation is set to enhance warehouse and manufacturing productivity through a partnership with Ivanti Wavelink. They will integrate Ivanti's Velocity platform with Zebra's autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), allowing for voice-command control without changes to existing systems. This integration can reduce manual material handling by up to 50%, increasing efficiency and safety. Zebra's General Manager emphasized the importance of automation in modern operations, while Ivanti noted the minimal implementation time needed due to their 'hands-off the host app' approach. This partnership is a response to customer demand for improved automation solutions.

Integrating Ivanti Wavelink’s Velocity with
For customers who need to streamline complex workflows associated with material movement, the partnership accelerates the effectiveness of automation – integrating Ivanti Wavelink’s Velocity platform for voice direction with Zebra’s line of Fetch AMRs. Now, Zebra AMRs can be controlled via Velocity apps or voice-direction on Zebra rugged mobile devices, without requiring any modifications to host WMS, ERP or other enterprise systems, allowing for robots to easily be assimilated into existing workflows. With robots handling repetitive and heavy lifting tasks, manual material handling can be reduced by as much as 50 percent, increasing productivity, streamlining workflows and improving safety.
“Our customers recognize that automation is key to the future of their operations and are ready to make investments in strategies and solutions that can get them where they need to be quickly,” said
Through the Velocity platform, Zebra AMRs are directed to complete steps in workflows, yielding a particularly high value in tasks where material movement and transport are needed. Additionally, through insights from Ivanti Neurons for IIoT, customers get visibility into the status of AMRs, so they know what task each robot is working on and any delays or disruptions they encounter.
“This partnership is another example of how our ‘hands off the host app’ approach that is a core tenet of the Ivanti Wavelink’s Velocity platform can aid in increasing productivity, accuracy, and safety. Because Velocity interfaces with existing enterprise applications without the need to migrate or modify the host application, there is minimal implementation time,” said
