Tompkins Robotics partners with RightHand Robotics to combine t-sort and RightPick robotic systems

Summary

April 13, 2018 - Tompkins Robotics, a division of Tompkins International, and RightHand Robotics announced a collaboration that will combine the portable, automated sortation system, t-Sort, with RightPick, robotic piece-picking systems.

Tompkins Robotics offers the automated sortation system, t-Sort, in North America and Europe. This robotic technology is designed to help build supply chains, providing throughput. The t-Sort system performs much like a conventional tilt tray or crossbelt sorter. However, the difference is it uses completely independent robots. This difference provides any-to-any flow from induct stations to divert points in a modular system.

RightPick is a combined software and hardware solution that handles the key task of picking individual items for eCommerce order fulfillment.
