AutoStore | Introduction: Stop Airhousing, Start Warehousing

AutoStore is a high-performance, high-speed warehouse robot system delivering goods-to-person from an ultra-dense storage grid. This order fulfillment system, or Automated Storage and Retrieval System (AS/RS) is used by many of the world's best-known brands.

Whoever came up with this solution is a TOTAL GENIUS!

Operations manager overseeing a 145 robot autostore- it’s excellent

unparalleled and obviously the future of supply chain

I have seen this in real life, and its an amazing system.

Not the fastests, but flexibility of layout, adapting to building constraints, and the density is really the highest you can get. Also, it is easy to install this underground, or put human stations high, so the robots, don't need to bring things down again for picking or packing. Instead, operate mostly at the top. Really cool. Also numbers of robots can be easily varied, and expanded for more speed, and reundancy, that is also great. Building it is also way easier, the main construction is made out of cheap to made and cut extrussions, that is also really cool.

It´s really amazing to see how efficient this works.

Amazing technology, saving space, power and time. All great for greater efficiency and customer service delight.

Doest this work with SAP, warehouse module and other ERP systems? or does it run on its own individual system?

[SkigBiggler]

Cool idea, but how on earth could you service this installation. Thankfully, the grid itself does not contain any moving parts, but were something to get stuck down one of the columns (unlikely, but possible) would you just have to give up that column of space? In addition, it seems it would be difficult to reach any robot that malfunction in the centre of the grid. Also appears there could be some fire hazards with so many goods packed in crates with short distances between them, but enough air still present to fuel a fire.

This is genius, but i wonder if this would be viable with a small space, such as sorting materials for hobby construction

[freedomfighter]

Yes - really amazingly smart warehouse system!

As an auto-store client/user, are we able to utilize parts of this video publicly to demonstrate our capabilities? Or would we require copyright permissions?

[ravindertalwar]

Congratulations 👏 and all the best for your success and happiness 💗

Funny how the only warehouse not using Autostore in this video is Autostores own manufacturing facility. They are using the traditional shelving system. Why?

[ryanhuang]

When does AutoStore go IPO? I am very willing to invest in AutoStore.

[clintonrezeki]

How does this compare with Ocado’s hive?

[aakashnandha]

Great but what about big products or variety of products and it will also increase unemployment

[jordanwedzinga]

As a warehouse worker we do not want this!!

[M-M-M-M]

Nice system, however, one might ask though: if everything will be done by robots, whose going to buy the products they need to orderpick? Because today's orderpicker robot is tomorrow's baker robot or pick any other manual labor... This eternal race to "cut costs and service time" will lead to something like today's problem's, where two third of all manufacturing is outsourced to China and as a result, European middle class ceased to exist because of this, to mention only one of the issues. What all those low skill laborers are going to do, who are replaced by these robots? Because they are also part of the market, they also contribute to sales and if they'll also disappear because of the robot workforce, again, who is going to buy all these items these robots need to pick? It almost feels like humans are creating these technologies to destroy themselves on the long run. Bit Skynet-ish, if you like, though in a different kind of way, indeed. I am happy that I'll probably not have to live through these struggles, being in my forties already, though it is concerning, to say the least, if I think about the future of my children. That is, indeed, if Russia and Putin isn't going to destroy the world in the next few months/years in a nuclear war...
