ABB’s new AI-powered functional modules — The Robotic Fashion Inductor and Robotic Parcel Inductor — enable end-to-end automation in logistics and intralogistics operations. The Robotic Fashion Inductor enables singulation and sorter induction for polybagged apparel and accessories items at speeds of up to 1300 picks per hour. The Robotic Parcel Inductor is built for small parcel singulation and sorter induction, processing boxes, bags, envelopes and packages at up to 1500 picks per hour. Both the Robotic Fashion Inductor and Robotic Parcel Inductor can handle unknown and randomly arranged items in unstructured environments and can deliver picking accuracy of over 99.5%. The AI system can also be trained to detect and reject non-inducible items. Both functional modules come pre-integrated.
