Can HaiPick System 3 handle full cartons/original packaging?

Yes. The system supports automatic tray handling, enabling full-case in/out without repacking.

Are there success stories or automated warehouse projects I can visit?

Yes. HaiPick System 3 has been deployed in over 100 projects worldwide with 10,000+ robots. Explore our customer case studies to see real-world results, or contact us to arrange a site visit and experience the system firsthand.

How is worker safety ensured when using warehouse robotics?

HaiPick System 3 includes multiple safety features:

  • Standard safety fences around automation zones.

  • Workstation protections like safety doors placed in the workstations to prevent arm injuries.

  • Smart safety vests (HaiVest) detect personnel and adjust robot speed or stop robots automatically, allowing safe maintenance without downtime.

How long do AMR batteries last, and how often do they recharge?

Fast-Transit Companion AMRs use LTO batteries with up to 10,000 charge cycles. Each charge takes ~15 minutes and provides roughly 3 hours of operation. LTO batteries offer high safety, fast charging, and wide temperature tolerance.

Can multiple storage depths coexist in one warehouse automation system?

Yes. HaiPick Robots can work with aisles having different depths, e.g., double-deep racks in some aisles and triple-deep in others.

Can AMRs connect to automated conveyors?

Yes. AMRs can deliver containers directly onto conveyors.

Can I use my own containers with HaiPick System 3?

Yes. The adjustable gripping forks can adapt to your existing containers, no matter if you have existing totes or are using cartons.

What is the maximum weight a container can hold?

Each container can hold up to 50 kg.

Can different types of containers be used in the same ASRS automation?

Yes. The system can handle totes, cartons, and trays simultaneously in one warehouse.

Can different container sizes be used in the same ASRS automation?

Yes. HaiPick System 3 supports multiple container sizes within the same ASRS warehouse.

2D/3D Vision

Machine vision (MV) is the technology and methods used to provide imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis for such applications as automatic inspection, process control, and robot guidance, usually in industry.

Aisle

A passage between two racks, where the stacker moves.

ACR (Automated Case-handling Mobile Robot)

ACR refers to an autonomous robot designed to handle and transport cases or containers within a warehouse or distribution center without the need of human intervention. These robots are equipped with advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and navigation capabilities to autonomously navigate through the facility, pick up and drop off cases, and optimize the movement of goods. ACRs are commonly used to automate repetitive and labor-intensive tasks such as order fulfillment, inventory replenishment, and material handling.

AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle)

AGV stands for Automated Guided Vehicle, which refers to a self-operating mobile robot used for material handling and transportation tasks within a controlled environment such as a warehouse or manufacturing facility. These vehicles are equipped with various sensors, navigation systems, and control technology to navigate through predefined paths or use real-time data to dynamically plan their routes. AGVs are commonly used to transport goods, pallets, or other materials between different locations, reducing the need for manual labor and improving efficiency.

AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot)

AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) refers to a type of robot that is capable of navigating and performing tasks without human intervention. These robots are equipped with sensors, cameras, and other technologies that allow them to perceive their environment and make decisions based on that information. AMRs are designed to operate in various environments, such as warehouses, factories, hospitals, and even public spaces. They can navigate through obstacles, avoid collisions, and carry out tasks autonomously, such as material handling, inventory management, and transportation. AMRs are often programmed with algorithms and artificial intelligence capabilities to adapt to changing conditions and optimize their performance.

Anti-Falling Device

An on-board device that can be used to prevent the lifting mechanism from falling suddenly.

Area Efficiency

The measure of how effectively the available space in a warehouse or logistics facility is utilized to maximize storage and operational efficiency.

AS/RS (Automated Storage and Retrieval System)

AS/RS stands for Automated Storage and Retrieval System, which refers to a computer-controlled system used for automatically storing and retrieving goods or materials from a designated storage area. AS/RS typically consists of racks or shelving units, automated cranes or shuttles, and a central control system. These systems utilize advanced software and hardware components to manage inventory, track locations, and optimize storage and retrieval operations. By automating these processes, AS/RS systems enhance efficiency, accuracy, and space utilization in warehouses or distribution centers.

Anti-Collision Structure

A structure under the safety fence to withstand the main impact force.

Activation/Utilization

The measure of how effectively and efficiently warehouse equipment, technology, or resources are utilized or put into operation to support various warehouse or logistics operations.
