A leading Japanese fashion company introduced an HIK robotics solution to optimize apparel logistics operations in a large-scale warehouse spanning over 11,000 m². The STP (Shelf-to-Person) system—integrating a fleet of 181 AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) with 26 workstations—has transformed the facility into a smart fulfillment center, delivering productivity aligned with the latest trends in the apparel logistics industry.

Components

Robot	181 AMRs
Peripherals	Workstations (26 units): Robots deliver required items by bringing entire shelving units to operators, enabling fast and accurate order fulfillment. STP (Shelf-to-Person) system: Minimizes wasted travel time by bringing shelves directly to operators. Integrated control system (WMS): Monitors material flow in real time and orchestrates the robot fleet and workstations to optimize operations.

Workflow

STEP 1.	The WMS analyzes customer order data and dispatches tasks to the robots
STEP 2.	Robot dispatch: AMRs pick the required SKUs from warehouse shelving and deliver them to workstations
STEP 3.	Operator processing: Operators verify items at the workstation and pack orders
STEP 4.	Ship preparation: Packed orders are transferred to the shipping/staging area.
