Automation Data

In today's society, as in the realm of precisely operating automated warehouse systems, data reigns as the ultimate currency. The knowledge of exact measurements and consistency of products is crucial for robots to unleash their full potential. However, current standards of product information fall short, with variations occurring from one production batch to another. Genomix emerges as a comprehensive ecosystem, designed to establish a new data standard.

It is capable of intelligently connecting and sharing insights across different warehouses, enhancing the speed and efficiency of warehouse automation by up to 15%. As Knapp's co-development partner from the outset, we are at the forefront of pioneering this transformative journey in product automation data.

with End-to-End
Processes

In the realm of data-driven automation, the true stars are the products themselves, along with their surrounding cases and pallets, which form the bedrock of high-quality automation data. Genomix begins at this fundamental level - with an easy-to-use handheld application, warehouse workers effortlessly follow a 'teach-in' procedure, capturing essential product data such as surface properties and coating behavior. Measurements are efficiently conducted using a fully integrated scan table. This process significantly reduces the time typically required for data optimization, yet the data is ready in real-time to sync with the production line. This gives robots all the necessary parameters for the most efficient picking and handling, streamlining the entire warehouse operation."

and exchange

The robust core system of Genomix is designed to enable the generated product data to interact flawlessly with on-site automation robot settings, providing all the necessary data for high-performance product commissioning. Integrated control systems, including light measurement units and scales, continuously verify the accuracy of this data. Anomalies, such as variations in production batches, are detected instantly and fed back into the system as enhanced information.

Beyond process optimization, the system is also adept at predicting potential enhancements in similar product groups by analyzing patterns and characteristics. This capability readies Genomix to share data and insights with other warehouses, creating a self-learning ecosystem that continually enhances data quality and effectiveness.
