Sorting robots
Small robots carry parcels across a platform and drop them into chutes.
Scaled
Thousands of units in daily work across many customers and countries.
What it does
A fleet of small robots runs on a raised platform. Each robot takes one parcel or item, drives to the right chute and tips it in. To add capacity, you add robots.
