Pickommerce team (company pic) plans to upgrade warehouses with a robotic piece-picking solution. The firm raised $3.4 million in funding to develop its technology.
The future of logistics is automated. While robots have already taken over tasks like crate collection and package unloading, the final piece of the puzzle—’Pick and Pack’—has remained largely in human hands. However, with a global shortage of millions of workers in this role, piece-picking robots are rapidly becoming a necessity.
These robots can increase efficiency by handling a wide variety of items, reducing the need for human labor in repetitive tasks, and improving overall performance while minimizing errors. Founded in 2022, Pickommerce AI Robotics is transforming logistics with its fully autonomous pick-and-pack station, addressing the industry-wide shortage of human pickers in warehouses and logistics operations. Leveraging advanced computer vision, AI, and patented robotic grippers, the company excels in both traditional and automated warehouse settings, enhancing operational efficiency and accuracy.
Built on extensive academic research in robotic grasping, the technology seamlessly integrates with existing automation, setting new benchmarks in warehouse operations, lowering costs, and reducing reliance on manual labor. Pickommerce boast that they have revolutionized warehouse automation with PickoBot. This “cutting-edge solution completes the puzzle of a fully autonomous warehouse, offering unparalleled benefits to industries like apparel, retail, e-commerce, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and spare parts” they boast.
Powered by advanced machine learning and computer vision, PickoBot can safely and intelligently package items of varying sizes, weights, and textures. Its versatile gripping system, featuring vacuum, finger-based, and patented adhesive-based grippers, ensures optimal handling for a wide range of products. The AI-driven decision-making algorithm further enhances PickoBot’s capabilities, selecting the most suitable gripper and grasp configuration for each item.
Pickommerce’s patented technologies significantly expand the range of products that can be handled by robots and elevate the level of autonomy in logistics operations. “At Havivian Farms, quality is at the core of everything we do. From planting seeds in the soil to harvesting our crops, we are committed to ensuring our customers receive the freshest, highest-quality goods,” said Boaz Havivian, Owner of Havivian Farms.
“Pickommerce has been integral to this process. Their PicoBot enables us to efficiently handle and pack our produce for shipment, ensuring it reaches customers in perfect condition.” “We appreciate the commitment from our investors, customers and partners, and we are seeing significant market demand for PickoBot,” remarked Kfir Nissim, Co-Founder and CEO of Pickommerce.
“We are pushing the boundaries of the industry by offering unmatched flexibility with the PickoBot’s diverse gripping abilities. This is achieved through the seamless integration of advanced computer vision, a highly optimized packing algorithm, and AI-powered decision-making.”.
