Perfect Pick® Automated Goods-to-Person System

“Perfect Pick is an automated goods-to-person delivery solution that utilizes intelligent iBOTs. It enables pickers to be much more efficient because product is delivered directly to them." -- Jeff Hedges, President, OPEX Material Handling


“Perfect Pick will change the way the market approaches each picking operations,” said Jeff Hedges, president, OPEX Material Handling. “It automates warehouse and distribution center operations with greater speed, accuracy and reliability than ever before.”

Perfect Pick’s “one-touch” design is based on iBOT technology—intelligent, wireless vehicles that have 100% access to the inventory in a single aisle. Unlike other shuttle systems that must rely on lifts, conveyors or transfers, said Hedges, iBOTs travel around inside the storage rack at industry-leading rates, picking and stocking inventory simultaneously. They are capable of delivering totes or trays directly to the picking station located at one or both ends of the aisle.

A single-aisle system can be easily expanded by adding modules or more aisles. Additionally, iBOTs can be introduced or removed from the system in minutes to quickly adapt throughput rates.
