Picking Robot
The picking robot is a pick-and-place cobot designed to automate the order picking process. It autonomously picks products from one storage tote or container and places them into another. Equipped with deep learning-based vision software and a highly versatile gripping device, this robot can handle a wide range of items with precise accuracy, regardless of size, shape, or finish.
Mecalux picking robots are ideal for warehouses that handle large volumes of daily shipments or experience high seasonal demand peaks. Robotic picking offers a comprehensive solution to increase productivity, reduce operating costs, and enhance order fulfillment efficiency across industries, including e-commerce, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and food.
Picking Robot Advantages
- High throughput: The cobot can achieve up to 1,000 picks per hour, operating continuously 24/7, which significantly streamlines order picking and boosts productivity compared to manual solutions.
- Maximum efficiency: Goods-to-robot order picking minimizes the potential for errors and frees operators from repetitive tasks.
- Great flexibility: The gripping device adapts to the product’s characteristics, allowing the cobot to handle a wide variety of items with different shapes, surface finishes, and sizes.
- Absolute accuracy: The vision software calculates and identifies the best pick point for each product based on its attributes and position inside the tote.
- Autonomous operations: Thanks to advanced AI algorithms, the robot can pick unknown items without prior training, ensuring immediate adaptation to warehouse inventory and SKU variations.
- Integration and adaptability: The robot is compatible with other automated warehouse systems, such as miniloads and the Shuttle System.
- Enhanced safety: The cobot can detect any presence in its vicinity and adjust its working speed, ensuring a safe working environment.
- Ease of use and implementation: Its intuitive user interface and simple installation make system setup quick and easy.
