OW Robotics (OWR) will debut an upgraded design of its end-to-end goods-to-picker robotics solution at IntraLogisteX 2020.
Comprising a robot and specially designed movable racking, called pods, stock can be brought to an operative, or transported around the warehouse without any manual interaction.
The system integrates with specially designed picking stations that guide operatives to the correct item using a custom overhead lighting system, along with cutting-edge software to maximise throughput and efficiency at the stations.
Furthermore, by integrating with a client’s existing ERP/WMS solution, or by using OWR’s WMS, the system can be implemented to enable operatives to perform multiple roles, such as replenishment or stock checking, allowing them to become multi-functional.
The OWR stand at IntraLogisteX 2020 will feature a live demo of the system, where visitors will be able to watch robots transporting pods to a picking station.
The demonstration aims to give visitors a practical understanding of the efficiency savings possible with this system, which represents the first integrated end-to-end robotic picking solution devised in the UK to facilitate next-generation warehouse operations.
In addition to the demonstration of its goods-to-picker solution, OWR will also showcase its other robotic warehouse management systems, including it’s a-to-b transportation and production line robotics systems at the show.
Commenting on the upcoming preview, Greg Downey, robotics business consultant at OW Robotics, said: “This system represents a unique proposition in the market, offering an out of the box solution for robotic warehouse management.
“Where we have worked with clients to implement it, the efficiency savings have typically resulted in ROI within 12-24 months.
“We are eager to demonstrate this solution to existing and prospective customers and show how this technology can improve supply chain operations for all manner of businesses at IntraLogisteX 2020.”
