Choose the inVia Picker for large-scale e-commerce fulfillment centers or 3PL warehouses where the primary goal is high-volume goods-to-person order picking. Its 2.235 m/s travel speed and 8-foot vertical reach make it superior for navigating expansive aisles and retrieving items from high shelving units, a task a stationary arm cannot perform. If your facility requires a fleet to automate inventory retrieval across a wide footprint without modifying existing racks, the inVia Picker’s autonomous navigation and 18.14 kg payload capacity provide the necessary throughput for high-SKU environments. The hot-swappable batteries ensure continuous 24/7 operation in high-demand logistics settings.

Select the Universal Robots UR10e for manufacturing environments requiring high-precision manipulation, such as automotive assembly, CNC machine tending, or arc welding. Unlike a mobile picker, the UR10e offers 6 degrees of freedom and a 1300mm reach, allowing it to perform complex, multi-angle tasks within a fixed workstation. It is the better choice for electronics or metalworking shops where collaborative safety is essential for human-robot proximity. Use the UR10e when your process demands sub-millimeter repeatability for tasks like palletizing or screw driving, leveraging its URScript and ROS2 compatibility to integrate with specialized end-effectors and existing industrial production lines.
