Automation

Solutions In Action is a proven provider of many various automation technologies. From robots, to AGVs, to AS/RS, and more. We can provide what your operations need to be successful.

Smart industrial robot arm for digital factory production

The SIA Descrambler can quickly delayer a pallet on a conveyor while separating, singulating and orienting cases into a repeatable, controllable single file for processing. This creates a predictable and manageable flow which improves automation, reduces manual labor, increases throughput and ensures system accuracy.

Our Print & Apply systems are engineered to streamline labeling in fast-paced production and distribution environments. This allows distribution centers to send out products faster by minimizing operator handling and processing time within their facilities. Designed for full automation, each system includes:

Barcode scanner to identify incoming products.

Print & Apply unit to generate and place barcoded labels.

Conveyor system for smooth product induction, labeling, and routing.

Verification scanner to confirm label accuracy.

Integrated software that merges order data and communicates with your host system.

Cross docking is a fast-moving logistics strategy where inbound products are immediately transferred to outbound transportation; no long-term storage needed. The benefits of cross docking include reduced handling and storage time, accelerates shipping speed, minimizes warehouse space requirements and improves overall supply chain efficiency.

Pick/Pack – Pick to light
Pick-to-light systems are simple, powerful tools that streamline warehouse picking by boosting speed, accuracy, and productivity, while helping you cut costs. A pick-to-light system typically follows the following path, but it can depend on the system requirement and product. The first step involves the operator scanning the barcode linked to an order and then attaching it to a reusable container, like a tote. Then LED displays light up to indicate where to pick the items and how many to grab at each location. The operator then picks the items, places them in a tote and presses a button to confirm. This process repeats until its completed. Pick-to-light systems are simple, powerful tools that streamline warehouse picking—boosting speed, accuracy, and productivity, while helping you cut costs.

Voice Picking
Voice picking improves warehouse efficiency by allowing operators to work hands-free and eyes-free, increasing speed and accuracy. With real-time instructions delivered through a headset, workers can focus on tasks without handling paper or screens. This reduces errors, shortens training time, and boosts productivity. Additionally, voice systems can easily integrate with WMS software, providing real-time data tracking and inventory updates, leading to better decision-making and streamlined operations.

Robotic palletizing is an automated process where robots are used to load and arrange products onto pallets, improving efficiency, accuracy, and safety in the packing process. It has been employed in industries such as food and beverage, automotive, consumer goods, and anywhere else it is required for high-speed and consistent palletizing tasks.

A conventional palletizer is a machine designed to automatically stack products onto pallets in precise, stable patterns. These palletizers use advanced technology, including layer-forming mechanisms and pattern adjustments, to handle various product types efficiently while optimizing throughput and reliability.

Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) are computer-controlled systems that efficiently store and retrieve goods in warehouses or distribution centers. They use automated equipment such as cranes, shuttles, or robots to optimize space utilization, reduce labor costs, and improve inventory accuracy.

Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are mobile robots designed to transport materials or products within a facility without human intervention, following predetermined paths or using navigation technologies like lasers or magnetic strips. They are widely used in warehouses and manufacturing plants to increase efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve safety.

Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are advanced robots that navigate and transport materials autonomously within a facility using sensors, cameras, and AI-based systems to map and adapt to their environment. Unlike AGVs, AMRs can operate more flexibly, adjusting their paths dynamically and interacting with their surroundings in real-time.
