Overview
The Sorting Transfer Robot M (SOTR‑M) is an autonomous transport and sorting system using mobile robots equipped with conveyor modules. It replaces fixed conveyor lines to enable free layout design, fast reconfiguration and incremental capacity expansion by adding robots. The system is suitable for distribution centers and manufacturing environments handling cases and totes.

Benefits

• Flexible by Design
  • Free warehouse layout: no fixed conveyor paths constrain installation or process changes.
  • Rapid reconfiguration to adapt to changing workflows or SKU mixes.
• Easy to Scale
  • Increase throughput by adding robots without major construction or downtime.
  • Start with a compact setup and expand capacity as volumes grow.
• Reliable, Even Under Pressure
  • Built‑in redundancy and coordinated routing keep operations running if individual units stop.
  • Optimized path selection reduces congestion and maintains flow.
• Quick to Install
  • Minimal civil works and infrastructure changes enable fast deployment and low implementation lead time.

Applications

• Smarter Piece Picking — SOTR‑M robots travel between picking stations on optimized routes, delivering and collecting cases/totes to reduce manual cart handling and increase picker productivity.
• Just‑in‑Time Line Feeding — Integrated with automated storage systems, SOTR‑M delivers parts and kits to production lines exactly when needed to support continuous flow and reduce manual replenishment.

How it Works
SOTR‑M mobile robots carry conveyor modules to transport and sort cases and totes across the site. Autonomous navigation, route optimization and coordinated fleet control enable continuous throughput and resilience: capacity is maintained via redundancy and by adding units when demand rises.
