Expansion with DHL is a direct result of Locus Robotics' proven approach.
Description:
Locus Robotics and DHL Supply Chain expanded their partnership to include 10 new deployments of the LocusBots autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) across U.S. locations throughout the rest of 2020. With the agreement, DHL Supply Chain, part of the Deutsche Post DHL Group, will have 1,000 LocusBots supporting 12 DHL sites in North America.
The two companies initially partnered in 2017 to pilot the LocusBots to support associates in piece-picking order fulfi llment in warehouses. The AMRs navigate autonomously within a warehouse to quickly locate and transport pick items to associates. The robots can support a range of picking strategies, helping to reduce time spent on routine or physically demanding tasks, reducing manual errors and increasing productivity for customers.
