Increase Warehousing Efficiency with ROBiN: With its leading-edge AI, machine vision, and innovative algorithms, ROBiN is designed to improve your operational efficiency.
Addressing Operator Challenges: Throughput demands and ergonomic constraints can hinder operators in manual ASRS induction systems. ROBiN removes these obstacles, optimizing fill for every tote.
ROBiN Outperforms Single-Pick Handling Systems with Increased Flexibility
Vision sensors and advanced vision algorithms allow ROBiN to perform real-time state evaluation and informed decision making, leading to optimized tote-fill density.
- AI balances cycle time and tote-fill density efficiency resulting in increased flexibility and performance over single pick induction systems.
- Performs de-layering of incoming single SKU pallets to a layer table.
- Highly-intelligent robotic transfer of product cases into totes.
- Robotic handling and advanced vision algorithms optimize the tote-fill percentage making the best use of ASRS space and efficiency.
ROBiN Capabilities
ROBiN’s key features include advanced vision technology for optimal case selection, sophisticated algorithms to enhance tote fill efficiency, the ability to handle diverse case sizes without predetermined stacking, and simple operation with minimal training requirements.
- Utilizes advanced vision technology to select the optimal group of cases, ensuring maximum utilization of tote space.
- Employs sophisticated algorithms for efficient group selection, aimed at maximizing tote fill.
- Simplified operation with no extensive training requirements and minimal management of SKU-specific parameters.
- Versatile in managing a broad range of case sizes.
- Operates effectively without the necessity for cases to adhere to a pre-arranged stacking order.
- Functions efficiently without any prior knowledge of the number of cases in each pallet layer. Designed to be compatible with a diverse range of case sizes, gripper types, and tote dimensions.
ROBiN provides the flexibility to handle edge cases where other systems traditionally struggle:
- The cases do not need to be stacked in a predetermined pattern
- The system does not need to know how many boxes are on the pallet layer
- A wide range of flexibility in the shapes of boxes can be accommodated
- Any size gripper and tote can be used
- No special lighting is required as the vision uses light outside of the visible spectrum
ROBiN Base Configuration
- Pallet conveyor for incoming pallets of product
- Layer/depalletizing robot – The depalletizing robot removes layers as specified by the operator from an incoming assembled pallet and places the product on a layer table
- Two Tote fill robots – Use vision and AI to strategically pick cases from the layer table for direct placement into totes, maximizing the available space
- Two framing tables – When direct placement cannot achieve the best utilization of tote space, the tote-filling robots place the product on a framing table for tote-fill arrangement. When the optimal configuration is reached, pushers mounted to the framing table actuate to compress the cases and remove any gaps that may have formed during handling. Tote utilization is consistently maximized regardless of incoming pallet configurations.
- Two tote locators
- Outgoing tote conveyor(s)
