enVista Unveils enMotion for End-to-End Warehouse Optimization

enVista, a leading supply chain and enterprise solutions provider, announced the launch of its proprietary enMotion platform, comprised of multiple robotic technologies and an AI-powered multi-agent orchestration engine to optimize distribution center (DC) operations. enMotion dynamically orchestrates multiple automated guided vehicle (AGV), collaborative robotic (cobot) and goods-to-person (GTP) systems. enMotion’s robotic solutions will leverage GreyOrange’s AI-driven orchestration platform, GreyMatter, and enVista’s enMotion warehouse execution system (WES) and warehouse control system (WCS) to drive end-to-end movement of orders and inventory in the DC.

enMotion’s first robotic solution consists of a single and double deep pallet cobot focused on full case selection. enMotion’s robotic technology powered by the GreyMatter software will provide unmatched efficiency in manufacturing and distribution, reducing travel and search time by nearly 80 percent. Both cobots are equipped with LiDAR-guided simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) navigation and 360-degree safety scanners for enhanced safety.

As the first of their kind to offer a 360-degree view at all times, these autonomous forklift robots navigate using features of the warehouse as opposed to reflectors, enabling them to detect objects, humans and otherwise to enable course adjustments.

Warehouse leaders can leverage enMotion as a Robotics as a Service (RaaS) model to achieve rapid deployment of scalable warehouse automation in their facilities without capital expenditures. This innovation marks a significant stride toward overcoming the financial obstacles that warehouse and distribution center leaders face in automating their facilities for operational excellence.

enMotion’s RaaS model will provide manufacturers and distributors with a scalable, subscription-based model, end-to-end integrations across warehouse management systems, warehouse execution systems and enterprise resource planning systems, full lifecycle support, rapid deployment and flexibility and data-driven optimization.

enVista is an integrator of GreyMatter Warehouse Orchestration and gStore Retail Software as a Service in GreyOrange’s Certified Partner Network.
