Why We're Entering The Age of Robotic Logistics

Robotic logistics has finally taken its hold in the world. Here's the essential information so you can prepare yourself for the logistics of the future.

The future of logistics is now! And it's going to be robotic.

Until a couple of years ago, the amount of robots in the material handling and distribution industry was relatively low. Automation has traditionally been challenging for this complex industry.

  • In February 2018, Amazon. E-commerce giant secretly acquired Dispatch, an urban delivery robot start-up company to build Scout. Scout is a six wheel urban delivery robot, and has been built in order to fulfil its commitments of Amazon Prime and one-day delivery, which would require advanced technology and quicker logistics servicing.
  • In July 2018, ABB in order to strengthen its position in the logistics market has acquired Intrion, an industrial automation expert for warehouse and distribution, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors. Robotics automated solution would add in flexibility to meet unexpected peaks, and in order to survive and perform efficiently in the complex and diverse market due to e-commerce and mass customisation.
