Pick-to-Light

Our Pick-to-Light solution for order fulfilment is the fastest operator-based technology for broken case quantity order picking and supports techniques such as team-based zone picking, cluster picking and more. The system is flexible and can be reconfigured to add or move light modules to accommodate new products or locations, for example.

For manufacturing processes, Pick-to-Light increases throughput for kitting, BoM parts picking, assembly and other lean material handling tasks.

Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) Trial

If you’re an SME that could benefit from the addition of Mobile Robots within your facility, we would love to advise on how this could be implemented and what productivity gains could potentially be made.

Nothing is better than actually having a vehicle in your facility to replicate the solution and show how such vehicles could operate in your environment with your people.

We can demonstrate a solution and potentially leave it with you to see some of the benefits for yourself. Let us help you unlock the potential of automation.
