What are Pick Assists?

Pick assist AMRs work alongside warehouse employees to improve order-picking efficiency. Rather than requiring employees to walk long distances carrying carts or totes, the robots transport orders between picking locations and consolidation areas.

In some applications, robots guide employees through the picking process and display instructions for the next item. Other systems coordinate multiple robots and employees to distribute work throughout the warehouse.

The primary benefit is often a reduction in nonproductive walking time. However, overall performance depends on picking density, order profiles, replenishment processes, and how effectively the robots coordinate with warehouse personnel.
