The Robotic Piece Picking Module is designed to improve accuracy and productivity during the last touch — the point where items of varying sizes and shapes are processed by hand — of the fulfillment process.
Traditionally, the last touch has been a manual process, but the Robotic Piece Picking Module completes the automation of the fulfillment chain. The module selects, grips, lifts and places individual items of varying sizes into containers or bins to complete a shipment. It delivers pick rates of 600–1,200 items per hour ensuring on time delivery of a variety of SKUs, such as personal care items, cosmetics, packaged food, office supplies and other package types, shapes and fragility.
“Distribution centers are facing increased pressure to find reliable, qualified and available labor,” said Crystal Parrott, Vice President, Robotics Center of Excellence, Dematic. “Our robotics offerings, such as the Robotic Piece Picking Module, help warehouse managers streamline processes through advanced technology and software that operate 24/7 with extraordinary accuracy, drilling down labor costs and improving fulfillment efficiency. The key to success is in identifying the system solution that meets the unique needs of a customer’s application.”
