RightHand Robotics, an autonomous robotic picking solutions provider for order fulfilment, has announced the launch of its Partner Integrator programme, as it works to establish an ecosystem for robotic piece-picking projects.
“The Partner Integrator programme aligns business goals of system integrators, OEM technology providers, certified robot integrator partners, and other related sales alliance members,” said Paul Eyre, director of global channels at RightHand Robotics.
“The programme offers strategic, commercial, and technical engagement such that companies can develop and build comprehensive solutions that are powered by RightHand Robotics award-winning RightPick item handling technology.”
UK-based automation services company Element Logic joins the programme as its charter member. The two companies aim to combined efforts to create an order fulfilment solution that further automates the handling of goods for predictable, resilient, and cost-effective operations at scale.
Through joint efforts, Element Logic introduced the eOperator, which enables automated handling of goods stored in AutoStore via RightPick core robotic picking technology, featuring RightPick AI software.
The overall solution is under the control and management of eManager software developed by Element Logic, providing visibility and optimised performance. When a customer places an order online, this system transfers the proper item from its inventory storage location in the AutoStore cube storage zone directly into the outbound order container, completely robotically, without any manual touch. The eOperator can pick and place thousands of different products, fulfilling orders efficiently and correctly every time.
“We’re excited to formally become a member of the Partner Integrator program,” said chief commercial officer, Håvard Hallås at Element Logic. “We chose to partner with RightHand Robotics for its breadth of robotic picking expertise and a straightforward approach to system integration.
“With surging online commerce placing great stress on fulfilment centres, now was the time to create a one-stop solution to ease our customers’ business pain. Our technology and AutoStore combined with the RightPick system creates a new future for warehouse automation. We believe this collaboration will establish a new benchmark for the intralogistics industry.”
Furthermore, eOperator has already been deployed in an AutoStore installation for Solar A/S, a leading European sourcing and service company in the electrical, plumbing, and ventilation sectors. Since the RightPick implementation, the company’s picking productivity has increased.
