Realtime Robotics Partners with Dematic to Deliver New Capabilities to Mixed Case Palletizing

Intelligence for multi-robot operations

BOSTON (October XX, 2020) — Realtime Robotics, the leader in autonomous motion planning for industrial robots, today announced a partnership with Dematic, a global leader in intralogistics innovation. The use of Realtime’s advanced multi-robot coordination and spatial perception technology paired with Dematic’s automated palletizing software will vastly improve the accuracy, cycle time and stability of mixed case palletizing cells.

In the hyper competitive logistics space, solution providers are being challenged to reduce cost and time to deploy all while continuing to increase key productivity metrics. To meet this demand Dematic’s solution requires multiple robots to work together to pick cases from varying sizes to build mixed-case pallets within tight proximity. Realtime Robotics’ core technology eliminates the need to implement cycle-reducing interference zones. This results in tightly orchestrated and choreographed work-cells fully optimized for cycle times. Additionally, Realtime’s advanced perception technology provides additional sensing competence, which empowers dense, stable pallet builds and quick fault recognition in a highly variable automation environment. The partnership between Dematic and Realtime Robotics will enable palletizing robots to have more intelligence and flexibility to build pallets at a higher pace.

Roboteon announces breakthrough simulation capability for mobile robots in distribution

Roboteon, provider of a powerful software platform for warehouse robot enablement, announces breakthrough simulation capabilities in its platform for robotics and other warehouse automation. The new tool help companies make better decisions across multiple time horizons, from initial automation planning through real time execution on the floor.

Interest in Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and other robotics is high, but there remains much uncertainty about use cases, the number of AMRs and humans needed across different time horizons, expected operational improvements, and cost savings from the robotics investment.

Penske Truck Leasing lights up new solar-powered facility initiative

Reading, Pa. – Nov. 18, 2024 - Penske Truck Leasing is lighting up a new solar-powered initiative seeking to boost efficiency, minimize energy costs, and reduce emissions initially at select truck leasing, truck rental, and truck maintenance locations in the U.S. with the installation and activation of its first-ever rooftop solar-powered systems.

The company’s new state-of-the-art facility in Channahon, Illinois, is now fully operational, and is predominantly powered by an onsite photovoltaic (PV) solar system, expected to generate roughly 80% of the building’s energy needs at 200 KW capacity. Any remaining required energy will be supplied by the local utility provider.
