Game-Changing Productivity Software

Router, a newly developed software suite for the cube-based order fulfillment system, increases robot productivity and efficiency by up to 40%.

Based on over 20 years of research and development, Router is a disruptive technology that can be implemented in any AutoStore system, whether a large-scale distribution center or a back-of-store micro-fulfillment center. This underscores the flexibility that has been a hallmark of AutoStore technology, and by purchasing this new software, users can potentially improve total system throughput by up to 4x.

Router uses sophisticated computer algorithms to continuously calculate and recalculate in real-time the most efficient path for AutoStore robots to move and deliver orders inside the company’s high-density grid system. Every second, the advanced software analyzes and dynamically adapts to operational changes, accelerating the fulfillment process and maintaining a continuously optimized flow of order movement. In this way, the system is able to process and adapt to continuously changing events happening outside the grid, such as new orders coming in, order cancellations, and movement of fulfillment personnel.
