P8S System
Handling Robot
Probably the fastest fulfillment robot in the world.
The P8S Handling Robot combines high-speed motion control, vision-guided precision, and adaptive intelligence. Engineered to move faster, reach higher, and perform flawlessly 24/7.
Speed
The Handling robot drives with 1.5 m/second, the handling unit with up to 2 m/sec. It reaches up to 4 m high (or 10 m with mezzanine) and delivers up to 150 trays per hour to workstations or over 300 per hour in sortation mode.
Efficiency
The Handling Robot consolidates 30–80 trays in a single cycle, replacing up to 80 individual retrieval drives of conventional systems — dramatically boosting efficiency.
Automating replenishment
The Handling Robot also automates replenishment, collecting loaded containers from processing stations or directly from suppliers and placing items into the storage area with speed and precision.

New: Integrated cold-chain option
In addition, the Handling Robot with the cold chain option operates seamlessly across ambient, chilled, and frozen zones. Either as separate zones or as an integrated cold-chain process. With our new Tray Box Thermo system and optional automated passive cooling, products remain consistently at their target temperature throughout handling and transport.
