The Zurich company says the platform links plant mapping, fleet scheduling, inspection analytics and maintenance systems for energy, metals, mining and chemicals sites.

ANYbotics has launched Shift, an operations platform for fleets of autonomous inspection robots in processing industries.

The company says Shift has four modules: Fleet for scheduling and monitoring, Insight for spotting anomalies from thermal, acoustic, visual and gas data, Connect for links to plant and maintenance systems, and Maps for a digital twin of the site.

ANYbotics says its software runs across more than 200 robot installations and handles hundreds of thousands of inspections a month. It cites customer Vigier Cement completing more than 33,000 autonomous inspections in 16 months, and SMUD saving $3.5 million in its first months.
