T-Robotics Wins Conditional U.S. DoW Approval for AMR and AGV Lines, Expands North American Supply View original image

T-Robotics is accelerating its push into the North American market after receiving conditional approval from the U.S. Department of War (DoW) for its autonomous mobile robot (AMR) and automated guided vehicle (AGV) product lines. As U.S. telecommunications and security regulations tighten, the company is expected to gain momentum in supplying robots to major local customers by meeting the relevant standards.


T-Robotics said on October 26 that its AMR and AGV product lines had received conditional approval from the U.S. Department of War. The approval is related to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Covered List regulations on equipment that poses a security threat.


The U.S. government and the FCC have recently stepped up security reviews of mobile robots and network communications equipment manufactured overseas. Products included on the Covered List may face restrictions on sales and equipment certification in the United States, creating a new barrier to entry for foreign robotics companies seeking to enter the North American market.


T-Robotics said it met these security standards and secured conditional approval, which functions as an exemption. This has established a basis for the stable supply of AMR products in North America and will allow the company to proceed without disruption with logistics automation projects for U.S. factories and major customers, it said.


The company expects the approval to create an opportunity to expand its market share, as some competing products, including AMRs made in China, face restrictions on entering the U.S. market due to telecommunications security regulations. Its strategy is to broaden its position as an alternative supplier in North America by offering products that have resolved regulatory risks.



A T-Robotics official said, "This approval from the U.S. Department of War recognizes the technological capabilities of T-Robotics' AMR product line and its reliability in terms of telecommunications and security. We will accelerate our push into the North American market, leveraging a stable supply chain, and do our utmost to enhance corporate and shareholder value."
