Hai Robotics Enhances HaiPick Climb for Faster Throughput and Density

The global logistics market is increasingly shifting away from rigid, legacy Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS) in favor of agile, modular robotics. The upgraded HaiPick Climb by Hai Robotics distinguishes itself from competitors by bridging the gap between high-density storage and rapid throughput without the infrastructure complexity typically required by shuttle or cube-based systems. By utilizing a dual-robot approach that combines specialized climbing robots with high-speed transport vehicles, the system achieves a level of vertical space utilization and speed that traditional "person-to-goods" or standard autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) cannot match.

Optimized Speed and Operational
ThroughputThe core advantage of the enhanced HaiPick Climb lies in its ability to eliminate operator travel time through intelligent orchestration. While many automated systems struggle with bottlenecks during peak demand, this architecture delivers inventory and order totes to workstations in under two minutes. The system supports up to 4,000 deliveries per hour, utilizing a side-to-side picking model that ensures the operator remains stationary and productive. This performance metric places the system at the forefront of the industry, particularly for high-volume fulfillment centers requiring consistent speed.

Maximizing Vertical Density and Footprint Efficiency
A common challenge with warehouse automation is the trade-off between accessibility and density. HaiPick Climb addresses this by utilizing double-deep configurations and a compact design that scales vertically. Within a 1,000 $m^2$ area, the system can house up to 45,000 totes, significantly outperforming standard racking or basic AMR solutions. This allows facilities to expand their inventory capacity substantially without the capital expenditure associated with physical building expansion or moving to a larger site.

Versatility in Handling and Configuration
Unlike many competing systems that require goods to be decanted into proprietary bins, the upgraded HaiPick Climb offers the flexibility to handle cartons and eaches in their original packaging. Automated tray and detray processes integrate seamlessly into the workflow, removing the manual labor typically associated with inbound processing. The modular nature of the system allows it to manage mixed packaging formats and multiple picking workflows simultaneously. This adaptability ensures that the technology remains a long-term asset capable of evolving alongside changing consumer demands and inventory profiles.
