APL — The Revolutionary Autonomous Pallet Loader for Military and Commercial Applications

Introducing the advanced Autonomous Pallet Loader (APL), a flexible, compact heavy-lift forklift designed for both military and commercial use. Perfect for moving heavy cargo in rugged environments and diverse industries, Stratom’s APL minimizes cargo loading, unloading and transporting needs while boosting speed, adaptability, efficiency and safety.

Stratom’s advanced APL is a cutting-edge autonomous system engineered to transport heavy and bulky cargo across various terrains, from rugged, unpaved surfaces to warehouse floors. Powered by Stratom’s Summit™ software platform, the APL can autonomously pick up and transport 463L pallets and standard warehouse pallets, and navigate rugged terrain utilizing waypoint following. The compact, lightweight design of this autonomous mobile robot (AMR) allows it to easily maneuver through narrow spaces, like warehouse overhead doors and under aircraft tails and fuselages. With the ability to be operated via remote control or pre-programmed for repeatable operations, this versatile AMR is ideal for outdoor distribution centers, FEMA emergency responses, forestry, air cargo and more.
