Multiway Robotics Shines at Korea AW 2026 | Autonomous Tailgate Loading & Unloading and High-Bay Storage/Retrieval Solutions Draw Significant Attention
Date：2026-03-06
On March 4th, the Korean Intelligent Factory and Automation World Exhibition (AW 2026) officially opened at COEX in Seoul. As one of the influential intelligent manufacturing and automation exhibitions in Asia, this year's show brought together numerous global companies from the robotics and automation sectors, showcasing cutting-edge technologies and innovative achievements.
Multiway Robotics presented its solutions for unmanned trunk loading/unloading and high bay AS/RS in complex scenarios. Focusing on core applications such as autonomous loading/unloading, high bay storage/retrieval, and multi-vehicle collaborative operations, the company delivered a systematic exhibition covering "loading/unloading – material handling – storage/retrieval – dispatching". This attracted professional visitors from the manufacturing and warehousing industries to stop and engage in discussions.
Application of Unmanned Tailgate Loading/Unloading Technology
At the exhibition site, the tailgate-specific counterbalanced forklift MW-Q20 performed a live demonstration of automated loading and unloading operations.
Key Capabilities：
Automatically identifies truck dimensions and internal space structure
Intelligent Planning of Loading Paths and Storage Location Layout Logic
Zero-gap between adjacent cargo
dock leveler max angle up to 8°
Supports wing-body trucks, flatbed trucks, etc.
Through visual recognition and algorithmic planning, the tailgate-specific counterbalanced autonomous forklift MW-Q20 can rapidly identify cargo compartments of various specifications. It dynamically optimizes loading sequences and placement patterns, maximizing space utilization while ensuring safety.
High-Bay Storage and Retrieval Solutions for Complex Warehouse Environments
To address the special handling requirements for long materials and heavy loads, Multiway Robotics showcased the autonomous sideloader forklift MW-O20.
Omnidirectional mobility technology, adapting to narrow aisles and complex paths.
Side-loading structure enhances stability for long material handling.
On-board visual perception system enabling alignment correction and comprehensive environmental sensing.
High-bay precision storage and retrieval, fully satisfying the requirements of modern automated warehouse systems.
The MW-O20 autonomous sideloader forklift delivers high-precision operations at elevated heights within complex warehouse environments. It is specifically engineered for the automated handling of long materials such as steel bars, sheets, and profiles, providing a specialized solution for demanding industry scenarios.
Integrated Software-Hardware Intelligent System Ecosystem
Aside from its core hardware products, Multiway Robotics showcased a comprehensive software system architecture. As one of the few industry players possessing full-stack software ecosystem capabilities, Multiway has constructed an end-to-end digital framework spanning perception, scheduling, control, and management, enabling a holistic upgrade from single-unit operations to system-wide collaboration.
Powered by AI-driven environmental perception and visual recognition technologies, the system achieves precise pallet pose estimation, cargo information verification, and rack status detection, delivering accurate decision support for unmanned operations in complex environments.
Covering the entire workflow from inbound receiving and outbound shipping to order picking and inventory counting, the system enables real-time inventory visualization and refined management.
Supports the collaborative operation of hundreds of heterogeneous robot models, featuring dynamic task allocation and optimal path planning.
Capable of seamless integration with conveyor systems, elevators, automatic doors, and AS/RS (Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems), ensuring stable end-to-end process connectivity.
Leveraging 3D modeling and real-time digital mapping, the system enables pre-deployment process simulation and optimization, while supporting remote monitoring and intelligent early-warning capabilities.
Through the deep integration of software and hardware, unmanned forklifts transcend their role as isolated single-point devices to become a scalable, sustainable, and intelligent logistics infrastructure.
Deepening roots in the South Korean market to accelerate large-scale deployment.
Multiway Robotics' presence at AW 2026 underscores its commitment to deepening its overseas footprint, marking a significant expansion of its unmanned loading/unloading and high-level storage solutions in the global market.
Multiway Robotics will continue to be driven by technological innovation, leveraging its mature local teams and service ecosystems to collaborate with global partners in accelerating the large-scale adoption of intelligent logistics technologies.
