HAI ROBOTICS announced the launch of two new HAIPICK robots: the world's first carton-picking ACR HAIPICK A42N and double-deep ACR HAIPICK A42D.

The rising rental cost of warehouses has become a major issue for many companies. Warehouse managers are constantly looking for the most cost and storage-efficient solution. HAIPICK A42D is the world’s first double-deep ACR that optimises space usage and increases storage density in warehouses. It can reduce the number of aisles by 50 per cent while increasing storage density by 130 per cent. Its telescopic fork can be customised for two rows of double-deep shelving. Its intelligent algorithm can be tailored to meet diverse business models.

HAI ROBOTICS’ strong R&D capabilities allowed the company to develop HAIPICK A42D in 1.5 years, successfully passing a series of tests. In March 2020, the first HAIPICK A42D-based system started operations in a 3PL company gaining positive feedbacks.

HAIPICK A42N uses cartons as the handling units rather than only totes. Its 3D visual recognition technology identifies goods without the need of codes, resulting in faster inventory count through shelf scanning. It supports multi-size carton/tote picking and can be applied to multiple business needs. The software platform is tailored to support case-picking and piece-picking. Cartons and totes can be reused to lower costs.
