Industry automation
Distribution and Fulfillment Automation
Sage integrates robots, gantries, conveyors and controls to move industrial products between receiving, storage, order preparation and shipping.
Warehouse automation designed around the product and peak flow
Distribution systems must absorb changing demand, product mix and arrival conditions while maintaining accurate material routing. The correct design depends on unit dimensions, pallet quality, peak rates, storage strategy and the interfaces to warehouse or production software.
Sage focuses on engineered handling for industrial products and unusual loads, including heavy containers, tires, drums, totes, rolls and pallets. The scope can include depalletizing, sorting, buffering, storage, retrieval and outbound palletizing.
Application data to define
- Average and peak material flow
- SKU count and product variation
- Pallet and container quality
- Storage density and retrieval priority
- Warehouse-management interface
- Manual exception and replenishment paths
What the system can include
Receiving automation
Unload, identify, orient and route inbound products or pallet loads into storage and production.
Automated storage
Use robotic gantries and controlled locations to store and retrieve industrial products.
Outbound preparation
Build, verify and discharge orders or pallet loads for wrapping, staging and shipment.

Frequently asked questions
Does Sage build general parcel-sorting systems?
Sage is best suited to engineered industrial material handling, especially large, heavy, bulky or nonstandard products rather than very small, high-speed parcel applications.
Can warehouse automation connect directly to production?
Yes. Controls and conveyance can coordinate storage, work-in-process buffering and production demand as one material-flow system.
