References: logisticsmanager
DHL Supply Chain extends its warehouse functions with the latest collaboration alongside Locus Robotics. Continuing to digitalize the methods behind the scenes, -- this starts the motion of implementing up to 2,000 artificially intelligent robots at a global scale. The robots will be integral to the company's operation and will be mostly used for e-commerce functions. It assists with picking and inventory replenishment, which results in higher efficiency and speeds up the delivery process.
Robots can also help save time by eliminating the maneuvering pushcarts in warehouses, lower physical strain for employees on-site, and optimize performance at a larger scale. Rick Faulk, CEO of Locus Robotics states, “Our expanded partnership with DHL reflects the increasing demand for warehouse digitalization worldwide to meet today’s exploding fulfillment challenges, [...] Locus is proud to be a valued technology resource that is helping DHL realize their strategic vision of digital transformation.”
