AI-Powered Robotic Material Handling



Liberty Robotics Inc. offers its flagship suite of robotic palletizing and depalletizing solutions, VPick and VPack, which use AI vision systems to enhance warehouse efficiency and reliability.

VPick intuitively guides robots in warehouse, distribution and fulfillment centers. The system enhances warehousing processes with its "pick on first sight" capabilities, achieving near 100% pick rates. VPick is designed to pick from a diverse array of pallet types, including mono, mixed and rainbow pallets, and supports a wide range of operations such as palletizing, depalletizing and pallet decanting. It is equipped to provide reliable picking capabilities without the necessity for deep learning or pre-training box parameters.

Its design offers consistent performance despite changes in ambient lighting, supporting high production speeds. The system includes four distinct features, each tailored to address different requirements in the material handling sector:

  • Single pick of uniform box type: Tailored for depalletization of single boxes, enhancing efficiency in material handling
  • Multipick of uniform box type: Allows simultaneous depalletization of multiple boxes, optimizing throughput
  • Delayering of uniform box type: For delayering entire layers of boxes, providing seamless operation in high-volume environments
  • Single pick of mixed box type: Adapts to varied box sizes within mixed pallets, maintaining precision and consistency.

Each function of the VPick suite incorporates slipsheet and empty pallet detection, comprehensive fault troubleshooting and variable pick tool alignment, all of which are designed to support high levels of picking accuracy and operational reliability.

VPack offers a novel approach to robotic packaging, featuring ad hoc picking capabilities and digital twin technology to support efficient operations. The system measures box dimensions on conveyors in real time, determining their optimal position on pallets for maximum packing efficiency. VPack is equipped with high-accuracy sensors for precise box detection, and its software simulates thousands of packing scenarios to find the most efficient arrangement. Key features of the system include smart pallet optimization, box anomaly detection, precision box handling technology, an enhanced parcel recovery system and dual-mode pallet handling, designed to improve packaging efficiency and reliability.
