Motors In Automated Warehouse Operations
Although at present robotic automation forms only a small part of warehouse spending it is predicted that it could grow from $3.6bn in 2021 to $18bn in 2025. As technology and AI's improve, automation systems will grow even faster.
Goods-to-Person Picking Systems
Imagine a warehouse where every item you need is just a few clicks away. That is the beauty of Goods-to-Person Picking Systems (G2P or GTP). These innovative automated systems are revolutionizing the world of order fulfillment
Updating Warehouse Automation Solutions to Improve Productivity and Profitability
Instead of having a thin layer of WES and FMS that cannot be dissociated from the robotic solution, I foresee robust, best of breed, stand-alone FMS and WES applications being developed.
5 Compelling Benefits Of Automation In Your Warehouse
The rapid expansion of the warehouse automation market is fueled by the diverse benefits that these technology solutions offer, and this article highlights just a few of the most compelling advantages.
Innovation in Mobile Robots for Warehouse Automation
The software is where the real magic is, though, at ForwardX. Our f(x) Fleet Manager is constantly improving using deep learning AI that analyzes every input and creates the most efficient process when dispatching AMRs for large orders or multiple orders.
