Geekplus launches RoboShuttle Hyper enabling dual-robot operation within the same column

The next-generation tote-to-person climbing AMR solution is engineered for high-throughput operations.

The next-generation tote-to-person climbing AMR solution is engineered for high-throughput operations.

ROBOSHUTTLE HYPER delivers up to 6,000 totes per hour per 1,000 square metres. The accompanying new Max Workstation enables a dual-point continuous tote-feeding mode that can exceed 800 totes per hour.

Throughput is a critical metric for fulfillment operators, and RoboShuttle Hyper was engineered to optimise it at every level. The system allows more robots to work in the same space at the same time without trading away reliability, says the firm.

RoboShuttle Hyper climbs at up to 1.5 m/s. New motion-control algorithms, refined across years of real-world robot operation, give Hyper faster travel and tighter positioning accuracy when retrieving totes. Its 1:10 charge-to-discharge ratio helps maintain availability during peak periods.

Parallel horizontal and vertical climbing enables 50% higher concurrency than the industry norm. RoboShuttle Hyper supports concurrent operation of multiple robots across adjacent columns. Only two rack columns need to be locked, compared to the industry norm of four to six columns. RoboShuttle Hyper also enables dual-robot operation within the same column. The innovative double-deep, dual-pass, bidirectional retrieval design reduces climbing cycles and boosts both storage density and operational efficiency.

Two aisles running beneath a single rack increase robot path density by 30% over the industry average, reducing congestion and enabling faster dispatching. Geekplus’ intelligent scheduling system can coordinate up to 5,000 robots across 50,000 square metres and 3 million storage locations.

Reliability is reinforced through a column-rail-integrated system with decoupled beam loading, multi-layer fall protection limiting tote fall distance to 50 mm or less, and real-time tote misalignment detection and re-centering. RoboShuttle Hyper is also compatible with RoboSafe, Geekplus’ safety vest solution.

RoboShuttle Hyper joins RoboShuttle Air and RoboShuttle Flex in a three-solution portfolio.

RoboShuttle Hyper: Next-generation tote-to-person climbing AMR solution optimised for ultra-high throughput and density in applications including fresh food, B2C e-commerce, consolidation warehouses and MFCs.

RoboShuttle Air: Lightweight flying tote solution designed for stable, fixed-takt operations in finished-goods and manufacturing warehouses, including environments with imperfect floor flatness.

RoboShuttle Flex: Built for flexibility across large SKU ranges, multiple container types and fluctuating order volumes.

RoboShuttle Hyper is also fully compatible with Geekplus’ Robot Arm Picking Stations and the Gino 1 general-purpose humanoid robot.
