斯蒂芬妮尼尔:欢迎来用OEM拿五,我今天是Stephanie Neil报道的一些最新消息,这些消息会影响制造商如何应对新的消费者购买行为。

具体而言,多通道销售方法,被称为Omnichannel,它符合客户在商店,在线或两者都在商店,在线或两者都能购买,因为您可以在手机上订购一些东西并在商店中拾取它。虽然对你和我来说很棒,但它是CPG的后勤噩梦。

为了将产品提供给右声道,仓库需要灵活的材料流。迄今为止,与托盘,缩小和排序的固定机器人相当难以做。

所以,ABB是一家在机器人和机器控制地区发展其投资组合的公司最近举行了另一个战略举措。7月,它宣布收购ASTI移动机器人组. Based in Spain, ASTI is a provider of autonomous mobile robots, known as AMRs, which include software for navigation, fleet management, and cloud-based traceability.

ABB高管称此次收购GameChanger首​​先将ABB作为一个能够提供完整自动化控制,机器人甚至电力和电气设备的公司。对于制造商来说,它为智能材料流提供了一种选择,可以单独通过输送机处理。

所以,在9月,在PACK EXPO Las Vegas,ABB展示了一个灵活的OmniChannel Fulfillment Center将是什么样的,以及公司的技术如何在所有方面都有所帮助,包括填充对消费者偏好的个性化的小批量订单。

自动化世界'sDavid Greenfield在Pack Expo上与ABB发言,并展示了这种全自动配送中心如何工作的演示。让我们来看看。

瑞克Ankey:我向你展示了灵活的omnichannel。所以,要提出自动化,以满足客户的需求,现在正在购买的消费者直接的消费者的业务,人们想买东西,让他们送到他们家。他们想买东西,让他们在一家商店拿起,他们想买仍然来自商店的东西,以便他们通过零售空间的物流结束。

I wanted to show you an example of a father buying presents and gifts and things for a birthday party for his son, Alex. As I mentioned, people want to buy individualized custom packages, so it's small-batch orders, personalization. And so, here, you see this father picking some things for his birthday party. They're blue, red, green. And, when I say personalized, he puts his son's Alex's name on there.

现在,传统仓库分销中心很难处理。所以,我们提出的是一个全部与机器人提供高度自动化的OmniChannel Fulfillment Center。这是我们的IRB 390.它有一个第五轴翻转。它还具有沉重的有效载荷,如15千克有效载荷。第五轴版本具有10千克有效载荷以及ABB B&R轨道。这称为accepods曲目,您可以看到个性化在那里。

Next, we're using the IRB 390, which is a new robot for ABB, to do the packaging. You can see the high Z stroke that it has. It also has a 10-15 kg payload. In addition to the Delta-style robots, we have lane-changing capability to where we're taking. Some of this is going to logistics like we talked about. Some going to a retail store and some go to home delivery. In these types of automated distribution centers, flexibility is what's key. Here, you have a collaborative ABB robot on a track that is providing the cases to be loaded onto a truck to be sent out. So, from the starter, from the primary plant all the way through to the delivery, ABB has solutions. We have palletizing robots, AGVs. ABB even provides the charging stations to charge the vehicles.

斯蒂芬妮尼尔: While AMR’s are just mentioned briefly at the end of that video, the mobile robots are an important part of the real-time flow that manages where packages will go. And it’s scalable to meet the growing needs of the omnichannel.
