Global supply chain solution partners with Fetch Robotics

A global leader in supply chain technology has announced its partnership with Fetch Robotics.

Körber Supply Chain’s robotic practice will now be enhanced with its collaboration with Fetch Robotics, a leader in cloud robotics and on-demand automation.

Körber will act as a global reseller, advisor and integrator of Fetch’s AMR solutions and cloud robotics software.

Fetch will have access to Körber’s 1,300 in-house professionals and nearly 100 strategic partners across the globe.

In a joint statement, Körber and Fetch said this assures AMRs are integrated with a sound supply chain strategy – working in tandem with new and existing staff, material handling equipment, and technology.

The companies said along with more products, suppliers and distribution channels to meet heightening consumer expectations, businesses are faced with global labor challenges.

They stated that many businesses struggle with implementation, integration, maintenance, training and costs and Körber and Fetch are aiming to overcome these challenges.

John Santagate, vice president of robotics at Körber Supply Chain – software said the partnership will extend the automation opportunity for its customers across the wide range of workflows involved in material movements in the warehouse.

“Fetch has a strong portfolio of mobile robots that, when combined with the extensive supply chain knowledge and commitment to innovation at Körber, creates an optimised approach to flexible automation,” John said.

The Fetch Cloud Robotics Platform provides the market’s only cloud-driven Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) solution that addresses material handling and data collection for warehousing and intralogistics environments.

Barry Phillips, chief marketing officer at Fetch Robotics said Fetch’s AMR solutions provide almost immediate payback.

“Our AMRs can be fully operational in just days instead of weeks or months across the widest array of distribution and fulfillment operations – including piece picking, case picking, and pallet building,” Barry said.

“Combining Fetch’s quick time to value and broad portfolio of AMR types along with Körber’s expertise, global network and comprehensive offerings is a game changer. It builds on our dedication to help customers now and as they grow.”

Körber Supply Chain, formerly Körber Logistics Systems has been operational for over 40 years and consists of Aberle, Cirrus Logistics, Cohesio, HighJump, Otimis, Consoveyo, DMLogic, inconso, Langhammer, Riantics and Voiteq.
