innovation never stop

Logistics peeps - is case picking an increasing part of your day-to-day? Recently I was told by multiple players in the logistics arena that they have more FTEs doing case pick than ever before - some say it's even surpassed each picking in recent months. What's been your experience? I've been told be some of the same people that there are frightfully few solid, battle-tested solutions for case picking automation out there right now. If you're looking for one, check out the example below of a recent project ForwardX deployed for L'Oréal. The integrated scale and instant pick validation in-aisle looks like it might be a game-changer for them. https://lnkd.in/eqStiCif

“When you have men and women in an organization, you will inherently be better. If you only have women, or if you only have men, that can be effective, but I generally find if you have different perspectives, different walks of life, and you can all come together and approach these problems and innovations differently, you’re going to get to a better place.” – Jennifer Miller In this episode of Everything is Logistics, Blythe speaks with Jennifer Miller, Vice President of Integrated Transportation at DHL Supply Chain. They discuss DHL’s history as a parcel delivery pioneer, its evolution into a global logistics powerhouse, and its early adoption of digital technologies. Jennifer shares insights into DHL’s use of robotics, AI, and sustainable vehicles to drive innovation and meet evolving customer needs.

I’m deeply thankful to my colleagues at the factory and R&D building, who consistently set the bar for innovation and commitment. As we enter 2025, QuickBin continues its remarkable journey, gaining global adoption and transforming warehouses across the Americas. Why? Because Quicktron’s patented Bin-to-Person picking system is redefining order fulfillment—leveraging cutting-edge technology to maximize space, speed, and accuracy. At the core of this mobile robotic technology are two powerhouse robots, the C56 and M5 (And now the faster M5F as well). Together, they enable the QuickBin system to store bins up to nearly 40 feet high (12m.), and deliver them with unmatched precision to pickers at the workstations below. The results speak for themselves: ✅ Faster fulfillment ✅ Fewer errors ✅ Streamlined operations In this video we see a fulfillment warehouse alive with movement, where over a hundred Quicktron robots work tirelessly, delivering unmatched efficiency. It's not just automation—it's a perfect harmony between mobile robots and a robust software system integrated with the upstream WMS. The result? A seamless transformation of operations. The ripple effect is extraordinary. Productivity skyrockets, cutting through inefficiencies like a laser. Costs take a nosedive, empowering this corporation to pass the savings directly to their customers. And those customers? They reap the rewards of faster service and lower prices, enhancing their experience like never before. But the story doesn't end there. Their employees step into a safer, more ergonomic environment, free from the physical strain of repetitive tasks. It's innovation with a human touch—technology not only driving business success but also prioritizing well-being. This is more than a warehouse—it's a glimpse into the future of logistics, where automation empowers growth, efficiency, and people.
