Locus Robotics marks a milestone

Locus Robotics has surpassed the one billion units picked milestone. This new achievement was attained just 59 days after Locus registered 900 million units picked.

“Reaching our one billion pick milestone underscores the critical business value that Locus’ proven technology brings to our customers around the world, every day,” says Rick Faulk, CEO, Locus Robotics. “The need for cost-efficient robotics automation is a must-have as e-commerce volumes continue to increase and the labour shortages persist. Locus is proud to help our customers efficiently meet this challenge with robust, enterprise-scale automation solutions that position them for success today and in the future.”

It took Locus 1,542 days to pick its first 100 million units and just 59 days for the last 100 million picks. 

LocusBots have travelled more than 17 million mi. (27.4 million km) in customers’ warehouses, the equivalent of more than 670 times around the earth or 35 round trips to the moon.
