In your operation
Reduce walking without giving up vertical storage
Skypod retrieves containers from the rack and brings them to a workstation. The operator handles the order while the robot performs horizontal and vertical transport.

What it does for your operation
Task performance
Use the rack height for storage capacity
The robot supports climbing up to 14 m and inventory loads up to 30 kg. Container and system configuration determine the working limits.
Configuration
Use containers suited to the product assortment
Exotec bins, trays and approved customer containers accommodate different goods. Match the container dimensions, contents and handling requirements to the system.
Connected systems
Scale throughput within the system
Adjust robot capacity as order demand changes. Plan storage and workstation capacity alongside the fleet so picking and handoff points can handle the required flow.
Site fit
Design the complete storage and fulfilment flow
Racks, robots, workstations and exchangers operate as one installation. Floor routes, vertical storage and inbound/outbound handoffs should be designed together.

Before you decide.
Does a Skypod robot grasp individual items?
It retrieves and transports containers. Picking happens at the workstation or through separately configured automation.
Can it climb any warehouse rack?
No. It requires the compatible Exotec storage-system configuration.
Which containers fit the standard system?
Exotec bins have a 650 × 450 mm exterior footprint, with 220, 320 or 420 mm heights. The tray option supports cartons up to 600 × 400 × 400 mm. These are not the bins' internal usable dimensions. Custom containers require an engineered interface and are not automatically interchangeable.
