Automated Delivery & Material Handling

We integrate the systems that move material through a plant (conveyance, automated storage and retrieval, autonomous vehicles) including the controls layer that has to coordinate them with everything else on the floor.

01What the work involves

  • Conveyance control and line coordination
  • Automated storage and retrieval integration
  • Autonomous vehicle and AGV integration
  • Traffic, routing and interlock logic
  • Integration with warehouse and plant systems

02Common questions

Do you supply the hardware or integrate what we've bought?

Either. Where equipment has already been purchased, we handle the controls and the integration that makes it work with the rest of the plant, which is usually where these projects get difficult.

Can this tie into our existing WMS?

Yes. The integration layer between material handling equipment and the systems above it is a large part of what we do.
