Every item in the tote, picked and packed.

The picker works at your AutoStore port or goods-to-person station. It recognises what is in the tote, checks each item against the order and packs it.

Item-picking cell, digital twin, running the live pick cycle

One pick, step by step

The scene on the right is the digital twin of the cell. Scroll, and it walks you through a single pick exactly as the robot performs it, camera by camera.

Let's see what actually happens.

A tote arrives at the port with an order line in it. Eight seconds later the item is in the shipping carton. This is what fills those eight seconds.

1

Image the bin, find the items

The source camera above the bin takes a picture. The detection model outlines every item it can see, including ones it has never been trained on.

2

Keep what belongs to the order, choose a grasp

Items that do not match the order line drop out. On the best remaining candidate the planner marks the grasp point: flat, centred and clear of its neighbours.

3

Pick the item

The arm descends, seals the suction cup on the grasp point and lifts the item clear of the bin. Then it carries it to the scanning pose.

4

Verify the item

Weight, dimensions and barcode are checked against the order line while the gripper turns the item past the scanner. A mismatch goes back to the bin, never into the carton.

  • Dimensions from the pick camera
  • Barcode read on the turn
5

Place it in the carton

The item is lowered into the shipping carton and set down at its planned spot, so the carton fills evenly and nothing is dropped from height.

6

The order leaves

The carton rolls off towards closing and labelling. The next carton is already on its way in, and the next bin is rising in the port.

That was one pick. The cell repeats it all shift long.
