A goods-to-person, multi-carton picking mobile robot used to store and retrieve cartons, cases and crates, the robot follows a QR-based guided path to navigate around the warehouse and picks only those cases that are required by the operator instead of choosing the whole rack.

The robot can carry up to eight crates and interact with various automation systems, such as picking stations, AMRs, conveyors, and ERP softwares, it said.

With the ongoing pandemic, global supply chains have come under the spotlight, putting warehouse managers under tremendous pressure to maintain a smooth flow of goods and protect employees from getting infected, said Addverb.

The robot increases Addverb's footprint globally in the flexible automation space and through Veloce, it can provide customisable solutions depending on the requirement of the customer and enable faster deployments, Kumar stated. HRS hrs
