AI Systems helps small to medium organizations streamline their entry into the automation world. While most Fortune 500 companies have invested billions of dollars into automating, many smaller organizations are struggling to choose the most profitable path for automating their warehouses and distribution centers. Focusing on automating smaller processes while keeping an eye on the overall development of the organization, AI Systems utilizes its “Simple Automation” to assist in getting its customers slowly into automating their entire facilities.
Our unique process is Simple.
- We evaluate the existing operations and facility, creating a drawing of all equipment and work areas, taking note of the steps and time duration for all processes including:
- Receiving material
- Storing material
- Value-added processing
- Time material is stored
- “Touches” made
- Picking and Packing
- Quality Control
- Taping and Labeling
- Palletizing and Loading
- We design a multi-tiered plan with phases determined with your input
- We engineer a modular system with milestones to evaluate and anticipate the next phase
- We build for the future to eliminate unnecessary maintenance requirements and anticipate the commissioning process of each phase
By using Interroll’s Modular Conveyor Platform and the built-in logic, we can reduce the costs of automating your facility by eliminating expensive components such as PLCs, HMIs, and sensors. The transportation of the goods can be performed by conveyors instead of forklifts, carts, pallet jacks, or blank, all of which would utilize the human aspect more productively elsewhere. Processes such as box building and sealing, picking and packing, quality control, labeling, taping, and loading can be kept to a manual operation.
As efficiency and ROI increases the next phase can be imagined and evaluated before being implemented. This milestone can include barcode scanning, pick-to-light, auto-sealing, print and apply, and sortation.
AI Systems can also offer fully automated facility design to include AS/RS, Mini-load, and Pallet-load equipment. Robotic palletizing and stretch-wrapping systems coupled together with Interroll’s Modular Pallet Platform line of conveyance can handle up to #2,500lbs per pallet.
