Improved RMS coordinates over 5,000 robots and completes 10,000 tasks per second to increase holiday order fulfillment efficiency
ATLANTA, Nov. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – Geekplus, a global leader in warehouse robotics, has announced a significant update to its Robot Management System (RMS) in time for peak travel season. Capable of coordinating more than 5,000 robots and processing 10,000 tasks per second, the enhanced RMS sets new standards for high-volume logistics operations during the busiest time of the year.
As e-commerce orders surge during the holiday season, warehouses are challenged to handle massive throughput without compromising speed or accuracy. Geekplus’ updated RMS addresses this need by providing unparalleled scalability and efficiency, enabling businesses to seamlessly meet increasing demand.
“As peak season approaches, warehouses are facing unprecedented challenges in managing order volume,” says Kai Liu, Head of System Platform at Geekplus. “Our new RMS enables companies to scale their operations efficiently, ensuring on-time deliveries to ensure and increase customer satisfaction during this critical time.”
The new RMS enables:
- Massive Scalability: Manage more than 5,000 robots in a single facility, enabling large-scale operations without costly infrastructure upgrades.
- High speed processing: Processing 10,000 tasks per second, significantly speeding up order fulfillment, critical to meeting tight holiday deadlines.
Geekplus has optimized the processing power of the RMS, reducing CPU load by 35% and memory usage by 50%. Advanced Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) algorithms optimize robot paths to reduce congestion and increase throughput by over 15%.
“With this RMS upgrade, we are not only increasing capacity, but also enabling smarter operations,” said Wenzhe Tan, Head of System Product at Geekplus can remain flexible in the future.”
The advanced RMS seamlessly integrates with Geekplus’ core solutions – rack-to-person, crate-to-person and pallet-to-person – allowing customers to deploy multiple automation systems in a single warehouse. This unified approach simplifies operations and optimizes efficiency, especially during peak periods. Designed for high-throughput environments, the updated RMS enables warehouses to handle increased demand without sacrificing performance:
- Shelving system for person systems: Manages up to 5,000 P-Series robots in facilities spanning more than 100,000 square feet and supports more than 200 workstations to increase productivity.
- Transport box for person systems: Coordinates 600 RS-Series robots and 2,000 P40 robots in a 50,000-square-foot facility, ensuring a continuous supply of containers and precise picking at 96 stations.
Geekplus is committed to advancing warehouse automation through continuous innovation in robotics, and the improved RMS is a testament to the company’s commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions tailored to the needs of peak seasons and beyond.
“By improving our RMS, we not only help companies overcome the peak season, but also prepare for future challenges in the logistics landscape,” adds Liu Kai. “Our goal is to provide solutions that support the long-term success of our business Supporting customers in an ever-evolving market.”
