Optimized AutoStore performance

By optimizing AutoStore performance and prioritizing operator efficiency and accuracy, FulfillX empowers you to achieve unprecedented levels of productivity and operational excellence in your warehouse environment.

Accelerate deployment & reduce risks during go-live

FulfillX accelerates deployment and go-live not only by reducing development and flexible integration capabilities, but also patented bin induction functionality to reduce the labor required to induct bins the first time for AutoStore.  This includes the ability to induct bins with product already in the bin.

Accelerate deployment with the ability for FulfillX to seamlessly integrate with your existing WMS protocol including FTP, SFTP, RESTful, HTTP, HTTPs, TCP/IP, Flat files and more.  In most cases this eliminates any development within your WMS.

Maximize flexibility to enable future business

FulfillX can be further optimized with simple integration to Kardex additional products as well as third party solutions.  This includes Kardex Intuitive Pick Assistant, which enables port operations with task instructions projected directly on the port and operator interactions validated with sensors to increase accuracy as well.  FulfillX can also be integrated to third party systems like bin picking robots and packaging solutions.​

Future flexibility is built in with robust end points and configuration to enable rapid adjustments to meet the business as it changes.  No matter if you are extending the AutoStore with a robotic bin picking solution or packaging automation to reduce shipping costs, FulfillX is ready for you with consistent market enhancements as a product and not a custom development creating ”one off” unique solutions.  

Optimize AutoStore performance

FulfillX optimizes tasks released to AutoStore from your WMS to maximize performance.  This includes grouping of orders to minimize bin presentations required, but also optimize the selection of specific bins and ports for each order to minimize travel distance of the robots.  In some cases, this reduces the AutoStore robot requirement by up to 20%.​

Maximize operator efficiency & accuracy

Maximize efficiency with the flexibility of FulfillX to match your operator's common practices with support for over 100+ languages and admin adjustable terminology to match your business. Combining operator ease of use with industry leading features like in-line confirmation cycle count, expedite orders, adjust bin configurations in real-time and more, providing you with the flexibility to tailor the solution for your business needs without additional project funding through change orders.

Replenishment / Goods In

Replenishment is the process of manually putting goods into the AutoStore bins. FulfillX WES guides the user through the process to ensure the highest level of inventory accuracy.

Picking / Goods Out

Picking is the process of completing your customer’s orders with product out of AutoStore. FulfillX WES guides the user through the pick process, including any specific processes such as in-line scanning, serial number capture, etc. to complete orders quickly and efficiently.

Real-Time Bin Configuration

Flexibility when configuring of the AutoStore bins is a paramount feature of FulfillX. Users are able to change the configuration of the bin to be multiple locations (2x1, 4x1, 8x1, etc.) and single location (1x1) right at the port giving you the ultimate inventory flexibility.

Intuitive Picking Assistant

IPA is the next generation of completing warehouse operations at the AutoStore ports. By eliminating the computer & touchscreen, IPA using projection and 3D vision systems to increase efficiency and performance for the user. The future of AutoStore is here!
