AutoStore Installation and Service

What it is

AutoStore is a cube storage system. Storage bins stack directly on top of each other inside an aluminum grid. Battery-powered robots travel across the top of the grid to dig out the bins that hold the items an order needs. The robots deliver each bin to a port, where an operator or a robot picks the items. Because there are no aisles, the system stores far more inventory in the same footprint than shelving or conventional racking.

We sell, coordinate, install and service AutoStore cube storage systems, working alongside certified AutoStore integration partners.

Where it fits

AutoStore works best for small to mid-sized items that fit in standard bins: e-commerce and retail goods, spare parts, electronics, healthcare and pharmacy items, components and kits. It suits operations that are short on floor space, need to raise pick rates or want to reduce the walking and searching involved in manual picking. Grids can be shaped around columns and fitted into existing buildings, mezzanine levels or new construction.

Our role

Our team helps owners and general contractors plan the project and keeps the work moving on site. We help size the grid, ports and robot fleet to your throughput targets, coordinate building requirements such as slab, sprinkler, power and lighting with your design team and manage installation alongside the integration partner. After go-live we support service, expansions and added ports or robots as volume grows.

Because our team also handles related equipment, this scope can be packaged with neighboring systems under one point of contact. We work nationwide from our headquarters in Sioux Falls, SD. We support owners, plant managers, engineers and general contractors from first layout through ongoing service.
