RightHand Robotics, a provider of data-driven, autonomous robotic picking solutions for order fulfilment, and Asetec, a logistics automation ICT company, have partnered for future robotic logistics centre integration projects in South Korea.
As an AutoStore integrator, Asetec will combine the Norwegian company’s robotic storage system and other matched technologies with RightHand Robotics’ RightPick item-handling solution to expand its range of automation offerings.
Founded in 1996, Asetec is a turnkey integrator for logistics centres, providing consulting and engineering, automation design and construction, and AI software solutions.
Over the past three years, the company’s revenues have been generated by a mix of software products and system integrations for AI-enabled robotic solutions in South Korea’s supply chain and warehousing market.
“In recent years we’ve seen tremendous growth, especially during Covid as customer demand for robotic automation multiplied, leading us to adapt and enhance our business and product offering,” said JongSuk Park, founder and CEO of Asetec.
“To continue to meet the market need, we’re excited to partner with RightHand Robotics, a leader in robotic piece-picking, and offer a fully integrated RightPick-AutoStore system solution for South Korea.”
Asetec joins the RightHand Robotics Partner Integrator programme, a strategic partnership initiative designed to make it easier for end-customers to adopt the RightPick platform and integrate with their preferred automation suppliers.
According to RightHand, the collaboration will accelerate the programme’s growth initiative and further expand its reach into the Asian logistics market.
“We’re thrilled to work with Asetec and gain momentum in South Korea,” said Leif Jentoft, co-founder and CSO of RightHand Robotics.
“With over 1,000 domestic customers from pharmaceutical to e-commerce to general goods, there will be numerous opportunities for our RightPick technology to integrate with Asetec’s AutoStore solution and fulfil customer orders nationally.”
