DHL runs warehouse pilot with collaborative robots

 

“The robot, called EffiBOT from the French start-up Effidence, is a fully automated trolley that follows pickers through the warehouse and takes care of most of the physical work. It is specifically designed to work safely with and around people.”

“During the test, two robots supported the pickers by carrying the weight and automatically dropping off the orders once fully loaded.”

“In the following weeks, DHL will continuously perform tests with different robot types and systems. These evaluation results will then determine which technologies will be permanently implemented.”
