CarryPick KMP 1500
SwisslogThe CarryPick KMP 1500 is a heavy-payload (1,500 kg rated) autonomous mobile robot (AMR) co-developed by Swisslog and KUKA, designed for intralogistics transport, goods-to-person fulfillment, and production line material supply. It navigates autonomously via SLAM and safety laser scanners, carries a lift table, and operates within structured warehouse grid or shop-floor environments managed by Swisslog's SynQ software. The system is deployed in multiple industries including food & beverage, fashion, and electrical components distribution. A next-generation CarryPick platform was released in March 2023 with faster robots. Note: some hardware specs (dimensions, weight, speed) differ between the KUKA datasheet and a third-party directory, indicating either variant differences or data quality issues in the directory.

Evidence-graded claims from the Swisslog deep report
Swisslog's entry-level systems start at approximately $1M USD, with mid-range systems (50,000 bins, 2–8 robots) costing $3–5M USD and large enterprise systems reaching tens of millions USD.
The independent MWPVL logistics consultancy review [7] provides these specific price ranges, representing a third-party analyst assessment rather than vendor-supplied figures, though the data may reflect pre-2020 pricing and current quotes could differ.

Swisslog's AutoStore robots, ASRS cranes/shuttles, and CycloneCarrier systems perform storage, retrieval, and order fulfillment autonomously — without human operators driving or performing those tasks — orchestrated by SynQ software.
The dossier's autonomy verdict (confidence 0.9) is derived primarily from Swisslog's own official sources [1][2][3][4][10][12]; no independent third-party test, regulator, or customer audit is cited to verify the specific claim that zero human intervention occurs in the retrieval/storage loop.
from Swisslog deep report →Swisslog's AutoStore deployment at Albert Heijn (Netherlands) handles 45,000 e-grocery orders per week.
This figure appears in Swisslog's own official sources [3]; no independent journalist, analyst, or Albert Heijn public statement in the dossier corroborates the specific 45,000-orders/week throughput figure.
from Swisslog deep report →The Medline deployment in Aurora, CO uses 94 AutoStore robots and is an active, shipped installation (not a pilot or demo).
Source [12] is a Swisslog press release from its own newsroom, not an independent customer or media report; the robot count and operational status have not been verified by a third party in the dossier.
from Swisslog deep report →Swisslog's SynQ software platform can orchestrate autonomous forklifts alongside AutoStore robots within a single unified system, as demonstrated in the 2025 Sumitomo Drive Technologies USA deployment.
Source [10] is Swisslog's own press release about the Sumitomo partnership; no independent verification of SynQ's multi-robot orchestration capability or the deployment's operational status exists in the dossier.
from Swisslog deep report →Swisslog systems support 30+ years of continuous operation with lifecycle services.
This claim originates solely from Swisslog's official website [1]; no independent customer case study, industry audit, or third-party analyst report in the dossier confirms that any specific installation has actually operated continuously for 30+ years under Swisslog's lifecycle support.

Swisslog Healthcare's pneumatic tube systems deliver $1,314,000 in annual savings per customer.
This precise figure comes from Swisslog Healthcare's own official site and a PR Newswire press release [8][9] — both vendor-controlled channels; no independent hospital, health system audit, or third-party study in the dossier substantiates this specific savings claim.
from Swisslog deep report →Swisslog has installations in 50 countries with approximately 2,000 employees across 20 countries.
The MWPVL review [7] provides these figures but is explicitly flagged in the dossier as likely pre-2015 era data, predating the KUKA acquisition; current headcount and geographic footprint are unverified and likely materially different.
