Dematic Mixed Case Palletizing
The Dematic Mixed Case Palletizing (AMCAP) is a fully automated end-of-line logistics system designed to build mixed-SKU pallets aligned to planogram specifications using modular robotic and control components. The system has been deployed at commercial scale, including at a major beverage facility in South Korea announced in August 2025.
Overview and Use Cases
The Dematic Mixed Case Palletizing system, also known as AMCAP, is an automated logistics solution for end-of-line palletization operations. It is designed to construct optimized pallets containing mixed stock-keeping units (SKUs) while maintaining planogram alignment—the arrangement of products according to predetermined visual and spatial specifications.
The system has been commercially deployed at scale. In August 2025, Dematic announced installation of the technology at Lotte Chilsung's manufacturing facility in Bupyeong, South Korea, which was described as the first fully automated mixed-case order fulfilment system in South Korea and the Asian beverage industry.
Key Capabilities
The system operates as a fully automated solution in which no human operator performs the palletizing task. Key operational capabilities include:
- Throughput of up to 10 cartons per minute
- Operation across ambient, chilled, and frozen temperature environments
- Labor reduction of 50–70% compared to conventional palletizing operations
- Transportation cost savings of up to 18%
- Planogram-aligned pallet construction
- Mixed-SKU pallet building capability
Specifications
The Dematic Mixed Case Palletizing system employs a modular architecture comprising:
- Layer depalletizer module
- Dematic Multishuttle buffer and sequencing system
- RapidPall pallet build cells
- Warehouse Control System (WCS) for operational coordination and control
The modular design allows configuration of system components to suit specific facility requirements and operational workflows.
Applications
The system is applicable to manufacturing and logistics operations requiring mixed-case palletization, particularly in sectors such as beverages where multiple product SKUs must be combined on single pallets. Its environmental capability range—spanning ambient, chilled, and frozen conditions—allows deployment across diverse operational environments including temperature-controlled facilities.

RobotRelay Delivery Robot
The Relay Delivery Robot is an autonomous indoor delivery robot developed by Relay Robotics (formerly known as Savioke), designed primarily for hospitality and healthcare environments. It navigates hotel corridors and hospital hallways independently, rides elevators without human assistance, and delivers guest amenities, medications, linens, and other supplies directly to rooms or designated drop-off points. Relay is one of the most widely deployed service robots in its category, reportedly completing over one million lifetime deliveries with a publicly cited success rate of approximately 99.8%. With a cargo capacity of around 10 gallons, the robot is compact enough to operate in busy public spaces while carrying a meaningful payload of everyday supplies.

RobotSpot
Spot is a four-legged autonomous robot developed by Boston Dynamics, a robotics company headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts. Designed for inspection, security, and data collection in complex or hazardous environments, Spot can navigate stairs, rough terrain, and confined spaces that are inaccessible to wheeled robots. It is commercially available and has been deployed across industries including utilities, oil and gas, construction, and public safety. Spot supports a modular payload system that accommodates thermal cameras, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras, lidar units, methane sensors, and other mission-specific hardware. Boston Dynamics also offers the Orbit fleet-management software platform, enabling operators to schedule autonomous inspection routes, aggregate sensor data, and manage multiple Spot units from a central interface. The robot is widely regarded as one of the most capable and commercially mature legged robots on the market.

RobotRealSense Depth Camera D455
The RealSense Depth Camera D455 is a stereoscopic active-infrared depth camera belonging to Intel's D400 series, designed to capture high-fidelity depth data for robotics, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), drones, and computer-vision applications. It features a 95 mm stereo baseline — the widest in the D400 lineup at the time of its introduction — which reportedly enables depth error of under 2% at ranges up to approximately 4 metres. Originally developed under the Intel RealSense brand, the D455 and related products were later spun off as part of an independent RealSense business unit following Intel's restructuring of the division around 2021–2022. The camera is widely adopted in research, industrial automation, and humanoid-robot development owing to its compact USB-powered form factor, open SDK support, and relatively accessible price point.
