MIT and Mecalux launch a groundbreaking project to accelerate logistics innovation
- The Intelligent Logistics Systems Lab will develop two key areas of research to boost warehouse robot productivity and optimize order distribution.
- Researchers will train self-learning AI models to learn from demand patterns and anticipate new customer buying habits.
Robotics for inventory and stock control: Next step for warehouses
The implementation of stock control robots in warehouses is not only a trend but a response to the need to adapt to the growing demand of modern commerce.
One of the areas that has changed the most within the logistics industry is stock control. Automating stock control minimizes the risk of human error and avoids slow operating times. Let's stay on the topic of Robotics for inventory and stock control: Next step for warehouses.
Robotics for end of line automation: RB-KAIROS+
The end-of-line is the last stage of the production process, where finished products go through final operations before being stored or distributed. Some examples of end-of-line tasks include quality control, parts handling, packaging, labeling, or order picking.
Combining the advantages of an AMR with those of a robotic arm results in end-of-line robots such as RB-KAIROS+, capable of moving around an infrastructure, handling objects autonomously and performing various end-of-line tasks with high efficiency and flexibility.
