AI overview

Updated

Freespace Robotics is a warehouse-automation company that designs and builds high-density automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) for material handling and logistics operations. Its robotic storage cube folds functions normally handled by external conveyors — sortation, sequencing, each-picking, order buffering and pre-staging — into a single dense structure. The company was spun out of the Carnegie Foundry venture studio with ties to Carnegie Mellon's National Robotics Engineering Center, and is backed by United States Steel Corporation, NFI Industries and Matthews Automation Solutions. It is headquartered in the Pittsburgh area, with operations also in Cincinnati, Ohio.

What sets it apart

A deep-lane robotic storage cube that absorbs conveyor functions like sorting, sequencing and pre-staging into the rack itself, using rail-powered carrier pairs rather than batteries, and installing into existing buildings with uneven floors, columns and ductwork instead of requiring a purpose-built facility.

Automated Order Fulfillment AS/RS Cube

Automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS)

A modular robotic automated storage and retrieval system that stores, sorts, buffers, stages and sequences goods inside a single high-rise cube, moving items on rail-powered robotic carrier pairs rather than external conveyors.

  • Integrated storage, sortation, buffering, staging and sequencing in one structure
  • EcoShuffle rail-powered robotic carrier pairs that route goods by the fastest path without batteries
  • Flexible trays handling items up to 100 pounds, from individual pieces to bulky cases
  • Modular vertical and horizontal scaling up to 70 feet in height
