Intelligrated showcases what’s next for e-commerce

At a press conference Tuesday morning, Intelligrated (Booth 2903) showcased a series of solutions to optimize order fulfillment processes for e-commerce and omni-channel fulfillment operations.

Featuring exhibitions of the company’s software, picking technologies, put wall, automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), conveyor solutions and sortation systems, Intelligrated’s booth is complemented by a booth at Automate highlighting the company’s GoKart autonomous mobile robot.

A live demonstration of the company’s shuttle technology features the OLS (one-level shuttle) retrieving products from storage. Handling totes and cartons, the system supports goods-to-operator fulfillment, product sequencing and buffering, and just-in-time inventory management applications.

“The theme for our booth is ‘What’s next for e-commerce,’” said Chris Cole, CEO of Intelligrated. “Coordinated by integrated software solutions, our modular and scalable solutions can help manage the transition from pallet to case handling and from case handling to each picking. In all manners, distribution and warehousing are changing, and not just in retail.”

After hiring 300 employees last year and a further 200 already this year, Intelligrated has also created a dedicated team of 15 individuals within the sales department to meet the increasing demand for aftermarket support.

ProMat 2015 is scheduled to be held March 23-26, 2014 at Chicago’s McCormick Place. The tradeshow will showcase the latest manufacturing, distribution and supply chain solutions in the material handling and logistics industry. Modern’s complete ProMat 2015 coverage.
