Indian AGV Company Focusing on Automating e-Commerce Fulfillment Centers Makes ProMat Debut

Gurgaon, India, March 18, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz was recently featured in Robotics Tomorrow magazine. Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz is making its North American debut at ProMat 2015 (booth #5521) in Chicago, IL, with a focus on automating e-commerce fulfillment centers. According to Anuj Kapuria, Director & CEO, representing the company at the huge material handling robotics event, "Order picking AGVs (automated guided vehicles) or robots are used to move ordered products to trailer-loading area for distribution."

Anuj Kapuria, Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz’s Director & CEO noted, "For the last few years goods to person solutions for e-commerce omni-channel fulfillment have grown dramatically. While robotic picking and packing technology has been around for a decade the recent dimensional technology advancements have been extraordinary, and this is why we are introducing our solution to the North American market with ProMat.”

Manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler, contributing editor for Robotics Tomorrow authored the article, titled, “Robots at ProMat to Feature Indian AGVs for the First Time.” According to Cutler, the order picking AGVs (automated guided vehicles) or BOTS are used to move ordered products to trailer-loading area for distribution. Distribution center (DC) operations managers must ensure these vehicles are capable of executing multiple paths and bus routes, possess safety features including safety-class bumpers and laser range sensors for obstacle detection. It is critical to have multi-vehicle coordination and optional intersection management. These "labor" workers must integrate with central MES (manufacturing execution systems).
