Scaling Warehouse Operations Efficiently with HKM1800 Automation

The HKM1800 enables straightforward operational scalability. 

  • Flexible operation: With the same cell one can increase to 2 or 3-shift operations to handle increased demand, seasonal surges, or capacity expansion.

  • Compacting: Use the 2 or 3-shift to optimize the available storage and delay further space investments. 

  • Future-proof speed: The HKM1800 can handle over 2,000 picks per hour, ensuring that robot speed is no longer a bottleneck in your warehouse operations.

The HKM1800’s high efficiency, through its speed and reach, means fewer units are needed to meet throughput targets, offering a cost-effective scaling solution with quick ROI for warehouses of all sizes.
