E-commerce shipping firm Pitney Bowes is set to install AmbiSort robotic systems across its U.S locations over the next five years.
The announcement follows the company’s recent execution of a pilot run of the AmbiSort solution at its Bloomington, California e-commerce hub.
Pitney Bowes said it is now looking to boost capacity as well as scalability of its operations, while simultaneously reducing costs and improving safety for its workforce.
AmbiSort robots, powered by AI, are designed by Ambi Robotics. In comparison with manual processes, AmbiSort robots offer double the speed of picking, placing, and packing parcels reported Pitney Bowes.
The company added these robots will help it in automating and accelerating parcel sorting to the last mile delivery providers amid a massive increase in parcel volume owing to Covid-19.
