xPress™ is a dual-purpose robotic transport system. It is used for retail / grocery store transport to deliver goods to and from the selling floor for multiple process flows. It can also be used for a warehouse environment for tote or bulk transport of goods. In both cases, xPress is positioned overhead to avoid floor level traffic and congestion.
When used for store-based retail, used as an overhead transport carrying totes, cases, loose items or orders to customers. Ideal for supercenters, grocery, mall anchors, club stores or large retail.
When used in a warehouse, can carry one or more packages or cartons of varying sizes through the warehouse without interruption to floor-level operations. Ideal for Distribution Centers and Fulfillment Centers.
