NEW YORK (USA)* — At Amazon's 112,000 square meter distribution center in Robbinsville, a region of New Jersey 100 kilometers from New York, employees are not the ones who go to the shelves to pick up purchased items to be shipped. These are the shelves that go to employees.
There, a robotic system installed at the base of each of the hundreds of shelves, approximately 2 meters high, allows them to roam wherever they want, as long as they are within a limited area. When a product is purchased, the robot "wakes up", the shelf that carries that item is activated, and begins to go, on its own, to the workstation where an employee is standing, collecting the purchased boxes and shipping them to the home. of people. Most are small and medium-sized products, a representation of Amazon's bet on small and medium-sized companies, too.
