…trucks, piece-picking and goods-to-person systems, robotic putwalls, and even shuttles in an automated storage and retrieval system 〈ASRS〉. While they can all operate in the same facility, they don’t typically interface with or talk to one another. They are islands of automation. That’s a blast from the past that wasn’t a compliment in the 1980s and 1990s, either. Furthermore, there’s…

…came the realization that a robotic system’s software—more so than its hardware—make these systems have an impact on materials handling. Software is what is constantly calculating the optimal routes for a fleet of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) to take, and it’s what gives robotic piece-picking arms the smarts to know how to grasp and place items. Behind every good robot…

…of new automated technologies, especially robotics, the challenges to integration are back in the spotlight. Operators don’t want to just drop a new technology into an existing process. Instead, they want to combine technologies to create new and better processes. It’s a reason that the theme at Trew’s booth was “orchestrating” systems. Enabling integration was the whole premise behind SVT…
