Robotic systems are allowing logistics warehouse operators to encompass a greater scope of their facilities than ever before. Technologies such as automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS), which comprise fixed racking, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and access stations, can even be connected directly to sortation, packing and packaging systems.
ASRS demonstrations and deployments showcase the power and viability of this technology across multiple industries. Further integration with robot arms, scanners and orchestration software generate a clear picture of order fulfillment from anywhere in the warehouse.
Regardless of greenfield or brownfield deployments, companies are utilizing storage and retrieval systems within the warehouse space to streamline the fulfillment process and get products into or out of the loading dock to meet customer needs.
In this Special Focus Issue, we’ll explore the possibilities afforded by ASRS and packing automation systems to streamline order fulfillment. Readers will learn about the journey from storage to shippable in an automated warehouse, including autonomous storage, sortation, kitting, packing and packaging systems. We’ll also look at options to connect goods-to-person picking systems with other workflows, including manual and automated picking stations.
