Topics

  • Types of fulfillment
  • Hybrid fulfillment
  • Dark fulfillment

Objective/Goal: 

Students will understand the different types of fulfillment processes are used with automatic and autonomous machines..

Introduction:

Automation has significantly modified how companies can adapt to business needs and demands. Multiple companies can now do business in the same area sharing costs and with the use of automated robots, space is minimized as the amount of space needed for humans is reduced.  These types of facilities known as AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) provide versatility, flexibility and cost effectiveness businesses need for fulfillment of materials.

Research/Reflect/Brainstorm – Time to think and expand your knowledge!
