Automating Warehouses, One Solution at a Time
Material movement is the basic requirement for warehouses of any size and scale. Our range of Fixed Automation and Flexible Robotics can help transport material in a fast, consistent and safe way to help increase the productivity and efficiency of the warehouse multifold.
An agile sortation system is crucial in enabling quick order fulfilment and requires a set-up that is easily deployable and scalable to meet demand fluctuations. With the increasing reliability of people on E-Commerce and the expectation of quick delivery, automation in sorting comes in very handy to sort a variety of product mix at high speeds.
Manual picking is time consuming, has scope for errors, and has vast labour requirements. Errors and delays in picking for order fulfilment results in greater return rates, leading to loss of revenue, and pressure on the returns handling process. With fast and accurate picking, your business can reduce operational costs despite the increasing order volumes and diverse order profiles.
The ease of storage and retrieval is a major contributor to warehouse operation efficiency as it directly impacts labour utilisation, space utilisation, and material movement which adds up to the cost and time consumption. In a distribution centre, it is believed that you are running low on space if 85% of the facility is occupied.
To thrive in a situation where E-Commerce returns account for 25-40%, it becomes mandatory to have organised reverse logistics in place. Ignoring reverse logistics automation can quickly lead to rising labour costs and harm the profits of the business by up to 25%. Besides profits, it can even impact the customer’s perception because the ease of return plays a paramount role while ordering online.
