Data Center Accessories

Autonomous asset movers and handlers support the core of robotics-first intralogistics, but high-density facilities require more than automated lift-and-shift. Modern hyperscale, colocation, HPC, and AI-cluster environments depend on specialized accessories that extend operational flexibility, enhance safety and stabilize workflows during installation, commissioning, maintenance, and rapid expansion and clearing cycles.
Built as the supporting layer of Grenzebach’s end-to-end automation ecosystem, these accessories strengthen the continuity and reliability of mobile rack, server, and storage handling across every operational mode.

Supporting Every Workflow Across High-Density Data Centers

Our accessories follow the same industrial-grade engineering as our rack, server, and disk automation systems: ESD-optimized, compliant with UL. & CE and international regulations, validated for narrow-aisle navigation, and built for the 24/7 demands of high-performance computing spaces. Whether your facility maintenance sustains manual, semi-automatic, or fully autonomous workflows, these components reinforce ergonomics, operational readiness, and consistent behavior—across every shift and every scenario.

A Complete Infrastructure Layer for Hyperscale Operations

  • Compatible across all Grenzebach automation systems

  • ESD-optimized for high performance  computing, storage and AI-cluster zones

  • Suitable cold-aisle operation

  • Certified for global deployment (UL 3100, ANSI B56.5, ISO 3691-4)

  • Designed for ORV2 / ORV3, HPC nodes, GPU-dense, and liquid-cooled environments

  • Tested for fast cycles, narrow aisles, and precision workflows

  • Engineered to industrial robotics standards with full compliance traceability


These accessories enhance redundancy, reduce MTTR, and support continuous operation during peak expansion phases, layout transitions, or constrained maintenance windows. They also scale with growing infrastructure footprints and new hardware generations, enabling stable performance as layouts evolve and AI-driven workloads increase.

Accessories Overview

  • Smart Carrier

    Designed for sensitive server, network, or battery cabinets. Continuous sensing tracks vibration, shock/tilt, position, temperature, and humidity from loading to installation. Unique IDs and condition logs provide objective proof at goods receipt. Tested fixation and ESD protection safeguard equipment. Tamper and theft detection plus optional live telemetry add transparency—reducing damage, disputes, and overall transport risk. Ideal for: data centers & IT infrastructure; high-value industrial and energy systems; international or critical shipments; pre-assembled, high-value racks and cabinets.

  • Service Chargers

    Designed for service bays, maintenance and preparation areas. Service Chargers provide controlled fast optimized charging. Maintenance intervention for diagnostics, updates, or pre-deployment checks minimize unexpected downtime. Ideal for: servicing shifts, inspection workflows, non-production zones, battery conditioning.

  • Fixed Chargers

    Stationary high-efficiency chargers built for continuous, autonomous operation. Placed strategically along routes or staging zones, they enable seamless fleet charging without interrupting workflows—critical for high-throughput rack, server, or storage operations. Ideal for: fully autonomous 24/7 workflows in AI, HPC, and hyperscale environments.

  • Handheld Control

    Robust, ergonomic units for guided mode, fine-positioning, and controlled interventions. ESD-safe, durable and optimized for dense aisles or precision approaches to racks and chassis. Ideal for: hybrid workflows, manual overrides, commissioning tasks, and precise alignment work.

  • Manual Lifting Tools

    Safety-compliant lifting tools for rare cases where manual handling is required. They reduce physical strain, prevent improper lifting and maintain ESD protection—essential for retrofit layouts or unique server/storage geometries. Ideal for: fallback scenarios, special formats, emergency access.

  • Motorized Tuggers

    Compact powered units supporting controlled transport of heavy IT equipment in areas where robotics deployment is not required or where teams need ergonomic support. They improve operator safety, reduce injury risk, and stabilize workflows in transitional layouts. Ideal for: bridge scenarios, evolving environments, and phased automation rollouts.

  • Emergency Tool

    Designed for controlled fallback during unexpected situations. Enables safe removal, stabilization, or repositioning of assets when standard workflows cannot be executed—without compromising ESD safety or operator protection. Ideal for: recovery workflows, fault scenarios, urgent interventions in live environments.

Built to Hyperscale Standards

All accessories follow the same validated requirements as our autonomous systems:

  • UL 3100, ANSI B56.5, ISO 3691-4

  • ISO 13849-1 functional safety

  • < 85 dB operational noise for live maintenance

  • Hot-/cold-aisle safe, aligned with TIA-942 and ASHRAE TC 9.9

  • Full documentation and traceability for audit preparation

  • Optimized for ORV2 / ORV3, HPC clusters, GPU-dense racks, and high-power computing zones

  • Sustainable materials and low-energy operation


These specifications maintain reliable performance under thermal stress, tight scheduling, and multi-shift workloads—and they strengthen human–robot collaboration by enabling guided control, safe interventions, and ergonomic support across all workflow modes.

Enhancing the Reliability of Your Automation Operation

Whether your facility uses rack, server, or storage automation—or a combination of all three—these accessories reinforce uptime, strengthen redundancy strategies, and support consistent performance across changing layouts, high-density pods, and AI-cluster deployments. They complete the automation backbone of Rack Mover, Server Handler, and Disk Handler, maintaining full operational continuity across your intralogistics environment.
