Automated Picking

Easy WMS: Riches's warehouse management system coordinates all automated order picking operations and oversees the interaction between the automatic elements involved. It also optimises picking routes, monitors inventory in real time and adapts to changing business needs.

AS/RS for pallets: An automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) systematically moves large pallet volumes, ensuring fast, safe and efficient access to goods.

Stacker cranes for pallets: These machines handle pallets automatically, removing them from storage as needed to fulfil orders. They keep inventory constantly moving.

Pallet Shuttle: Using a motorised shuttle, this system manages pallet loading and unloading in deep-storage channels. It can operate in three modes: semi-automatically (with forklifts), automatically (with stacker cranes and conveyors) or as a 3D Automated Pallet Shuttle, its most advanced version.

Conveyors: Integrated with Easy WMS, these enable a smooth product flow to pick stations where orders are assembled.

Electric monorail systems: Whether floor-mounted or overhead, these connect storage areas with order picking zones.

AS/RS for boxes: This solution optimises picking of small and medium-sized products with dynamic and reliable robotic box handling.

Stacker cranes for boxes: In miniload systems, these machines automate the storage and handling of small items.

Shuttle System: This solution features motor-driven shuttles that move inside racking to handle cartons and supply pick stations at a very high pace.

High-performance pick station: Designed to efficiently handle multiple orders at once, this system provides direct access to the maximum number of totes and bins needed for picking. Operators can perform up to 1,000 picks per hour and assemble six orders simultaneously.

AMRs: Autonomous mobile robots increase order picking productivity by automating internal goods transport. They can operate in three modes: goods-to-person, delivering items to pick stations; shelf-to-person, moving entire racks to operators; or person-to-goods, following employees to relieve them from using order picking carts.

Picking robots: With their robotic arms, these machines automatically transfer products between boxes with excellent precision. They can operate autonomously in high-performance pick stations or work alongside operators.
