Attabotics, powered by Extolla in APAC

“We’ve doubled our inventory volume while maintaining the same headcount and warehouse footprint.”

Amer Jomaa, CEO, Modern Beauty

Reinvent your high-density order fulfilment with the 3D AS/RS solution from Attabotics.

Consolidate your warehouse footprint, increase labour productivity, reduce labour costs, improve efficiency in high-density order fulfilment performance, and drive lower total cost of operations for greater ROI.

Attabotics is the first true 3D robotics-powered order fulfilment system, offering the highest storage density in the market while using fewer robots. It has full sortation capabilities within the footprint and an AI enabled proprietary software platform.

With a proliferation of e-commerce, an industry wide problem has surfaced.  Consumer demands have fundamentally changed, while supply chains have not caught up.  Retail disruptions, the cost of warehouse space, rising costs and labour challenges all contribute to unit economics just not making sense.

• Labour productivity challenges, space constraints and costs are further pressured amidst rapidly changing consumer demands.
• Current supply chain structures are incapable of handling new levels of speed and complexity demanded by the consumer.

Any business with high-density order fulfilment requirement would benefit greatly from the speed and productivity that an Attabotics solution provides.

Proven Success Across Industries

Attabotics is trusted by businesses worldwide, with many installations across diverse industries, including:

• Grocery – Streamlining fulfilment for high-volume, fast-moving consumer goods
• Apparel – Enhancing storage density and speed for fashion and footwear
• Defence – Supporting secure and efficient logistics for mission-critical operations
• Automotive – Optimising parts distribution and inventory management
• Retail – Enabling seamless omnichannel fulfilment and last-mile efficiency
• Distributors – Improving order accuracy and warehouse productivity
• Cold Chain – Ensuring temperature-sensitive goods are handled with precision

“We can do so much from one workstation by one person – pick, replenish, do inventory counts, remove damaged items and it doesn’t require extensive training.

Attabotics provided us with more efficiencies, less equipment to use, and more condensed space.  There is so much product we can now fit into a small space.”

Lou Nagy, Intergration Manager, Pan Pacific Pet

Finally, there is an alternative available in the APAC market – a new generation of 3D AS/RS technology. The Attabotics system is a new way to think about cube storage and retrieval with benefits including:

• • Low cost per unit to ship

• • Highest storage density in the market with up to 9m high

• • Scalable for storage and/or throughput

• • Robots travel in 3D

• • Eliminates SKU slotting

• • Integrated sortation and sequencing

• • Priority order presentation in <90seconds

• • Largest totes in market with 45kg capacity

• • Eliminates warehouse floor remediation

• • Easily integrates with existing ERP/WMS requiring no middleware

• • No batteries – uses ultra-capacitor technology with no service or replacement required

• • Standard 4G WIFI connectivity

How should you measure warehouse automation?

Space. Accuracy. Labour. Throughput.

Warehouse automation shouldn’t be evaluated on a single metric.

A solution may increase storage density, but what happens to throughput? It may reduce labour requirements, but how does it affect accuracy? Increased speed means little if the wider operation creates bottlenecks elsewhere.

Attabotics’ S.A.L.T. Framework provides a practical way to evaluate distribution centre performance and compare automation technologies across four interconnected measures: Space, Accuracy, Labour and Throughput.

S | SPACE
Look beyond the warehouse floor and consider the entire cube. Better utilisation of vertical and horizontal space can increase inventory capacity, defer expansion and reduce the physical footprint required for fulfilment.

A | ACCURACY
Accuracy extends beyond picking. It starts with inventory truth and continues through every movement, transaction, pick, consolidation and shipment to the customer.

L | LABOUR
The objective isn’t simply fewer people. It is making more of every paid hour productive. Goods-to-person automation reduces time spent walking, searching and travelling between inventory locations, allowing people to focus on productive handling and picking.

T | THROUGHPUT
True throughput is about more than robot speed. It combines available capacity with the velocity at which useful work moves through the entire operation, particularly under sustained peak conditions.

“Your customer just wants their product, and they want it now.  If you identify that and get it to them the most efficient way you can, you are already winning.  Attabotics gives us this advantage.”

Doug Thorne, General Manager, Pan Pacific Pet

“With Attabotics’ put-to-light solution, we can now batch pick multiple store transfers simultaneously with 100% accuracy.  We’ve doubled our inventory volume while maintaining the same headcount and warehouse footprint.

Attabotics has transformed our fulfilment operations.”

Does the Attabotics system always need to be a square or rectangle?

No. Attabotics’ system is designed to suit your building including working around walls, corners, and consuming existing building columns inside the structure to allow maximum storage density within a facility.

Is there a height limit to the system?

Attabotics systems can be built up to 9 metres.

Can I use existing software – ERP/WMS?

Yes – regardless of API, we have a communications layer that can communicate with any host system as long as it’s specified.

Can Attabotics workstations be used for picking and decanting?

Yes, the Attabotics workstations can be used for picking, decanting, cycle counts, and kitting. These functions are available at each workstation by selecting the mode through the HMI.

Is there a maintenance platform required at the top of the structure?

No, all maintenance is done at ground level through robot maintenance bays.

Do the robots require downtime to charge?

No, the Attabot^TM  charges while working inside the Gallery using supercapacitors with no loss of time.
