Rapyuta Robotics Adds Put-to-Light Feature for Pick-Assist Robot

Rapyuta Robotics put-to-light function

Rapyuta Robotics, which develops collaborative pick-assist warehouse robots, said it will launch its new “Put-to-Light” function on the Rapyuta PA-AMR to help reduce picking errors and increase productivity. The company will showcase the feature at next week’s ProMat show in Chicago, March 20-23.

Rapyuta said its PA-AMR picking robots have been deployed by key third-party logistics (3PL) players around the world to help them improve order fulfillment rates and improve ergonomics for human pickers.

“With an increasing number of global customers adopting Rapyuta PA-AMR, we’ve responded to requests for functional improvements to prevent picking errors at logistics sites, as well as adding features to enhance productivity,” said Arudchelvan Krishnamoorthy, CFO and co-founder of Rapyuta. “Our solution was to create a Put-to-Light function to respond to requests and market needs.”

The new feature includes three functions:

  1. When pairing with a container, LEDs light up to indicate where to put the container. The color of LEDs can be configured to match the container, and the width of the illuminated area can be adjusted to match the size of the container.
  2. When picking, the LED lighting designates the location of the container for the picked goods.
  3. When unloading, the LED lighting designates the container for unloading.
