Hai Robotcs and MHS to Provide Goods to Person Robotic Solutions in North America

"Innovative autonomous case-handling robotic system addresses the demand for warehouse automation, complete with local support from MHS"  

Hai Robotics announces partnership with MHS

Hai Robotics, a pioneer in autonomous case-handling robotic systems announces a partnership with MHS, a single-source provider of material handling automation and software solutions to provide warehouse automation solutions for distribution and fulfillment facilities and courier, express, and parcel distribution centers. 

The relationship leverages innovative HaiPick technology from Hai Robotics and systems engineering, integration, and support from MHS to address labor and storage capacity challenges facing customers in North America.

North American Automated Robot Solutions

“With logistics facilities feeling pressure to accommodate growing SKU counts and order volumes, our robotic systems provide efficient, intelligent, flexible, and customizable warehouse automation solutions to make more efficient use of available space,” says Johnny Zhang, Vice President of International Sales, Hai Robotics. “In order to expand our business in North America, we need to find the right local integration partners. The experience, capability, and strength of MHS in our target markets make them an ideal fit.”

The HaiPick system uses autonomous case-handling robots to store and retrieve several cases at a time in tall, narrow storage aisles. This dense storage configuration can enable operations to reduce square footage dedicated to storage, while actually increasing total storage capacity. Once cases are retrieved, the robots work in a goods-to-person framework, moving inventory into position to fuel order fulfillment and other logistics processes.

“The HaiPick solutions offer superior flexibility, faster implementation, and much lower cost compared to conventional AS/RS driven by shuttles and cranes,” says Michael Fleming, Manager of AGV and AMR solutions, MHS. “Working with Hai Robotics allows MHS to serve our customers with advanced technology that best fits their needs in an evolving marketplace.”
