Robot Picking
Robotic picking that actually works in production.
Picks any SKU.
Runs fast.
Stays reliable.
Proven across the most live warehouse deployments in Europe.
Key production KPIs
8,000+ picks per day.
One cell. No breaks. No shift change. No output drop.
600+ UPH peaks.
When your system can feed fast enough.
> 99% pick success.
Closed-loop, low intervention performance.
Why operators choose this system
Handles messy, mixed and unseen SKUs
Closed-loop control for consistent pick success
Works with AutoStore ports, shuttles, conveyors and AMR feeds
Built for uptime with robots running day and night in production sites
Case Studies
Monta runs one of the largest AutoStore installations in the Netherlands and needed a picking solution that could slot into a complex, fast-scaling operation. Sereact integrated directly into their new facility, worked from day one, and delivered the flexibility required to expand across aisles and future sites.
The cost per pick advantage
Picking decides your cost per order. The numbers speak for themselves.
Human picker
- •
450 UPH for short bursts
- •
250 to 300 UPH across a full shift
- •
Output drops after breaks and during peak
- •
Higher error rates under pressure
- •
Requires two or three shifts for full-day coverage
Cortex-powered robot
- •
Stable 300 to 350 UPH every hour
- •
8,000+ picks per day from one cell
- •
Runs nights and weekends with no extra cost
- •
Low error rates and low intervention
- •
Predictable output for planning and SLAs
The result
- •
Lower cost per pick across the day
- •
Lower cost per order across the operation
- •
A competitive advantage that compounds
What Sereact delivers
Zero-shot picking
Picks new items without training or teaching. No image sets. No onboarding downtime.
Closed-loop control
Cortex adapts grip, movement and placement in real time. If an item shifts or crumples, the robot corrects itself.
High success and low intervention
The robot solves difficult items on its own. Your team only handles true exceptions.
Feed-agnostic integration
Fits your AutoStore ports, shuttle systems, conveyors and AMR flows. No infrastructure changes.
Lens quality check
Catches crushed, leaking or wrong items before placement. Protects margin by preventing downstream errors and claims.
Built for uptime
Designed and deployed for production. Runs reliably across nights, weekends and peak.
How it fits the workflow?
A plug-in picking cell that works with the warehouse you already run, including AutoStore. No redesign. No SKU prep. No changes to your port layout.
AutoStore Carousel Ports or Conveyor Ports present a bin to the cell. The same flow applies to shuttle systems, AMRs and conveyors.
Captures the tote, identifies each SKU and plans the grasp in real time, even with mixed, glossy or deformable items.
Cortex adjusts grip and trajectory as needed. If something shifts, the robot recovers and keeps going.
Lens flags damage, overheight items, leakage and anomalies before outbound placement.
Outbound cartons
Order totes
Putwall slots
Downstream conveyors
AutoStore consolidation workflows
Cortex retries intelligently and resolves edge cases independently. If human help is required, it is flagged cleanly without blocking the line.
Pick confirmations
Item metadata
Quality flags
Exception events
Port status signals
Your WMS or WCS stays in control. The robot executes with consistency.
How exceptions are handled
Real warehouses are messy. Cortex is designed to keep throughput high when items misbehave.
Remote support in seconds
Most issues are cleared remotely without a technician.
Critical issues resolved in under 12 minutes on average.
Non critical issues resolved in under 30 minutes.
This is the difference between demo robotics and production robotics.
If an item slips, shifts or collapses
Cortex retries with a new grasp plan. No stops. No alarms. No blocked ports.
If an item cannot be picked safely
The robot flags it, moves on and keeps the station productive.
If a spill or breakage happens
The robot isolates the tote and marks it in the WMS for inspection. This prevents a full-line stop.
Technical fit
Sereact picking cells work with standard warehouse infrastructure.
