6 River Systems was built from the very beginning to solve a real problem: helping warehouses do more with less in the fastest, most flexible way possible. Our customers achieve 80% of the productivity of a goods-to-person system at 20% percent of the cost.
Some of the technological and design highlights include: Directed approach: Chuck leads workers through the aisles, while other AGVs either employ a swarm-based approach (where pickers look for a robot) or a follow-the-picker approach.
By leading pickers, our robots keep associates on task. Optimized pick path: Chuck optimizes all the orders through our cloud-based software that integrates with our customers’ WMS system. This allows Chuck to determine the best, most dense pick paths, saving warehouse associates precious time from walking needlessly.
Biggest, most configurable cobot on the market: Our standard Chuck robot supports a 160-lb payload, the largest of any cobot on the market. Chuck also comes in a wider version (Chuck+), and can be configured to a three-tiered robot that supports fulfillment of shoes, garment on hanger, aircraft and computer parts and more. Chuck can hold 16 average ecommerce orders while other cobots only hold 2 average ecommerce orders.
