We take a consultative approach because no two warehouse operations are the same. There’s power in bringing together best-in-class robotic technology, rock solid software, and the right people.
Our deep experience in warehouse management systems and software integrations set us apart from robot hardware-centric competitors. We empower companies that often lack a deep bench of optimization and automation experts so they can compete in an industry where the mantra is ‘automate or die.’
First, we listen. Our full-view approach means we identify all the areas across your operation that can be optimized. Then we design a tailored robotic automation solution that builds on these new-found efficiencies.
We’re your automation partner for the long haul. who never stops finding new ways to make your warehouse operate better and faster. And our dedicated Customer Support team is monitoring your robots 24/7 so you’re always covered.
If you’re thinking about robotic automation, here’s what you can expect.
Planning Phase
This is when we make our first onsite visit to dig into your operation and document your current workflow processes, then we come back to you with the output of our Prime Robotics Workflow Builder, which takes in hundreds of pieces of data about your operation to create an optimized workflow that includes the optimal number of robots. You get a visual representation of how your warehouse can operate at its highest efficiency.
This detailed view of your automated warehouse makes it easy to calculate your new pick rate and the number of orders per day you can fulfill with confidence. We’ll show you what happens to productivity if you were to add more Pick Stations, shifts or other robots – such as our MobileShelf pallet mover.
Now’s the time look ahead. What opportunities would you take advantage of if you had no capacity limitations? We think big and so can you.
Implementation
Whether you use a top WMS or a home-grown version, integration with your current software is straightforward, after all our background is in enterprise-class warehouse systems integration! Our Robot Control System (RSC) interfaces with your WMS, uniting your inventory and order data with the robots. On-site tasks are straightforward, we apply fiducials to your warehouse floor. Our robots use these to navigate. Next we install shelves made for the MobileShelf robot and the shelves are filled with inventory. We add the Pick Station(s) designed for robot-assisted order filling. Lastly, we add robot charging stations; a robot will automatically navigate to a charging station when their battery runs low.
Go-Live
Our Team trains your team to use the RCS, and we begin test phase with 50 actual outbound orders and then slowly increase the number of orders. Within a week or two your team’s confidence in the system allows you to move 100% of your inventory and orders into the RCS system, and your robotic automation deployment is complete. We lead this process and ensure there is minimal interruption on your operation.
If you want to see how to boost productivity in your warehouse, we’re here. Let’s start a conversation.
