SymBots®
Mixed hardware abilities providing extreme capabilities
The Symbotic system is a total warehouse automation solution, comprised of a variety of robotic technologies, developed together to create a single solution that addresses vast and dynamic operations in warehouses, DCs, and back-of-stores.
Inventory Automation
The SymBots
SymBots® are the main robotic technology that manage inventory automation in every one of Symbotic’s systems. They work entirely in the automated storage and retrieval (ASRS) part of the system, managing placement of goods to maintain high density, and retrieving goods in sequence for correct order fulfillment.
- SymBot – Manages inventory in native cases or totes up to 60 lbs (27.2 kg) and a max payload size of 24 x 24 x 16.2 inches (61 x 61 x 41.2 cm).
- SymBot XL – Manages a larger payload up to 36 x 24 x 16.2 inches (91.4 x 61 x 41.2 cm) allowing automation of larger inventory and dual item picking.
- SymBot TR – The tote retrieval SymBot automates an inventory of totes for each picking and micro-fulfillment operations. It supports tri-zone temperature operations.
Less-than-full-case sortation
Symbotic
BreakPack Bot
The Symbotic BreakPack Bot (BP bot) sorts less-than-full-case quantities into bins for partial case fulfillment. Inventory is placed on the BP Bot at pick stations where the bot then transports the goods to a tote for fulfillment.
Native case handling
Robots handle inventory in the cartons and packaging they ship in. Irregular sizes, soft packaging, and breakable inventory are easily automated.
Variable size capability
Inventory ranging in size from 2 x 6.4 x 5 inches to 36 x 24 x 16.2 inches (5.1 x 16.3 x 12.7 cm to 91.4 x 61 x 41.2 cm) with a payload from 1 lbs to 60 lbs (0.5 kg to 27.2 kg).
Mixed Goods
Less-than-full-case quantities and mixed SKUs can be sorted and automated in totes.
24/7 Runtime
Robots can hold power for 10+ hours each combined with auto-charging allows for continuous operations.
Learn as they go
AI supports continuous improvements through pattern recognition and human-lead training.
Many bots, 1 brain
Each robot is a physical part of the central operating system. The ecosystem of robots work together as a single machine.
