Sportswear warehouse logistics and packaging
Summary

Current status: The picking of products for order preparation is still done manually by the operators: they take the correct number of items for each order and place them in another container to complete the order. The instructions are received from a screen or tablet. This results in highly repetitive work where a lot of time is spent moving through the shelves. The work can sometimes be alienating, poorly ergonomic and low mental incentive for employees.

MASTERLY solution: An autonomous robotic system will pick up the containers and take them to a dedicated picking station for the preparation of the order boxes. The robotic cell will receive order instructions from DEC’s management system and perform picking and placing activities in the boxes containing the orders, with the identification of the products using the instructions and codes on the tablet. A vision system will inspect the objects to determine the correct gripping point and a flexible and reconfigurable gripper will be implemented.
