AutoStore AutoStore B1 Robot
The AutoStore AutoStore B1 Robot is an automated warehouse system designed to dramatically increase storage density, picking accuracy, and throughput for distribution centres, e-commerce fulfilment, and manufacturing warehouses.
The AutoStore B1 Robot integrates seamlessly with existing WMS and ERP platforms via standard API connectors. Its modular architecture allows the system to scale horizontally as storage requirements grow, without interrupting live operations.
Using intelligent routing algorithms, the system minimises travel time and congestion across the warehouse floor. Real-time inventory tracking and cycle counting eliminate stock discrepancies and reduce the need for periodic full stocktakes.
