Machine automation and warehouse robotics are being deployed to ensure ‘zero error logistics’ becomes a reality, according to BotsAndUs.
With the capturing of automated real time insights, robots can digitise any physical space to delivery zero error logistics, the British robotics and AI company said. From warehouse storage to dispatch, robotics can capture invaluable data at points that maximise efficiency and squeeze that extra performance required to save millions lost and to gain in revenue.
Automation increases productivity and reduces costs by providing real time data that provides full control of the inventory and flow of goods while driving efficiencies across space utilisation. Robotics and AI can handle the repetitive jobs and learn how to deal with unusual situations. Together, these solutions are designed to free companies to focus on prioritising business initiatives and optimise operations by creating more opportunities and retraining the workforce for higher-level jobs.
According to BotsAndUs, real time data helps reconciliation, damage control, evidence for insurance and ultimately customer satisfaction.
Oana Jinga, BotsAndUs co-founder, said: “The value of real time data kicks in right at the start of the acceptance process, as goods come off a truck, are checked and assessed. Our fully autonomous state-of-the-art robotic system twins and optimises operations.
“There is a continuous feed of real time insights across the process, allowing for instant and informed business decisions. Instant access to real time data helps optimise the present, de-risk the future and discover the intractable in each location and at every stage of the product journey through the warehouse and onto dispatch.”
Furthermore, research by Forrester has found that automation – including robotics, AI and machine learning – is already a defining industry trend that will continue to expand over the next two decades. It is also one of the most popular choices for improving operational efficiency with tactical automation. This ties into the trends shown in the latest analysis by ONS and provides solid evidence for the industry to invest now in AI and robotic solutions.
BotsAndUs develops robotics and AI logistics solutions to drive better business decisions across operations. MIM, its fully autonomous mobile and modular robot measures, tracks and finds goods across storage and warehouses without workflow disruption and provides real time data at every stage of the process. The data is fed into digital twins, allowing logistics and warehouses to quickly respond to all the challenges they face on a daily basis.
