…there is no 'halo customer' in this space, like General Motors, that OEMs could point to and say, 'If it works for them, then it works for us.'” “There's no single player in the robot arm ecosystem, despite Amazon, Ocado, Kindred, and FedEx,” he added. “Consolidation will happen, but Plus One is fortunate. We started with the application rather than the technology. The only metric that matters for us is the number of picks around the world.” “We've had a lot of success with mixed depalletizing, which people don't want to do,” said Nieves. “Companies want to reach boxes at…
