Infolog Warehouse Automation Technologies
Picking
Infolog Warehouse Automation system allows workers to find the items they need with just a few clicks. Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) will bring racks or pallets directly to the workstation, instead of workers looking for them in the warehouse themselves. When workers finish picking up goods, AMR will transport the racks or pallets back to the storage area.
Putaway
Infolog Warehouse Automation system also allows workers to be able to place products in places that have been allocated based on intelligent algorithms. After scanning the position code on the shelf, the worker places the product in the space. Then, on the workstation screen, immediately click the button to indicate that the disposal process for these items has been completed.
