State-of-the-art fulfillment, powered by AI.

Everyone knows, e-commerce is all about getting packages out quickly and efficiently. That's why the team of visionaries at Plus One Robotics developed this new, flexible fulfillment solution to incorporate a FANUC robot and Plus One’s AI-powered PickOne perception system to identify, singulate, and sort a wide range of conveyable items without the need for traditional vision training.

Robotic Parcel Sorting Helps Reduce Ergonomic Issues

This package sortation application uses an M-20iD robot equipped with a vacuum gripper and FANUC’s 3DV/1600 Vision Sensor to identify and singulate items and place them onto a conveyor. This is good for sortation to put items into a truck that routes to the next destination.
