The difference with 3D mobile robots is that they have the ability to move vertically by anchoring themselves to the storage racks, being able to rise up to 10 m. high, to take the corresponding product.

  • Horizontal carousels

The horizontal carousels are ergonomically designed equipment to contain the products to be supplied in shelves with a horizontal loop; which stop in front of the operator so that he can take the products indicated by the system, relying on Pick to Light type illuminated displays.
