In the competitive world of e-commerce, where every minute counts, an efficient warehouse makes the difference between success and failure. In fact, according to the latest survey by the prestigious consulting firm McKinsey, more than 80% of retailers will increase their investment in automation in the next two to three years. By 2024, as reflected in Shopify data, it is estimated that more than 2.7 billion people will make an online purchase. This incredible demand, coupled with the expectation of fast, error-free deliveries, is leading companies of all types to implement e-commerce intralogistics automation systems.

In this context, the MIM Automation team, which has more than 20 years of experience in the execution and development of intralogistics automation projects, will delve into why these systems are not only an option, but a strategic necessity for e-commerce companies.

Advantages of Intralogistics Automation:

Faster Shipping

According to the latest study conducted by Ipsos for Amazon, 46% of online shoppers consider speed of delivery to be one of the most influential factors when making a purchase. Furthermore, 21% would be willing to pay more to receive their order sooner. Improving processing times is important. So much so that 41.9% of companies in the sector consider improving the timeliness of their shipments a priority, as indicated by the latest study by VDC Research Group.

Incorporating intralogistics automation systems capable of handling large volumes of orders accurately and quickly, such as Interrol sorters, is key to reducing processing times and reducing potential errors. These types of devices come in a variety of designs—such as cross-belt, pop-up, vertical, etc.—and adapt to the unique needs of each customer.

Cross-belt sorters, which come in either a vertical or horizontal format, are one of the most notable systems in this category, thanks to their speed and scanning technology, which allows them to identify each product and send it to its destination via a cross-belt system. Specifically, these systems can sort up to 20,000 products per hour weighing up to 50 kilos in their horizontal format, and up to 12,000 per hour with a maximum of 35 kilos in their vertical version.

Error Reduction

Precise order management, especially in phases such as order preparation (picking) and product packaging, is essential to meeting customer expectations. Companies in the sector are aware of this situation—41.5% already identify the need to optimize their perfect order rate as a priority, according to research by VDC Research Group.

If there’s one thing that defines intralogistics automation systems, it’s error reduction. These solutions feature radio frequency identification (RFID) and scanning technologies with success rates of up to 99%. In addition to sorters and other solutions, another system that leverages the virtues of this technology is autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).

This system of vehicles that independently transport packages is ideal for the transport, sorting, and distribution of merchandise in a warehouse or logistics center. These devices move freely throughout the facility, without the need for a guided path, and are capable of avoiding obstacles. Thanks to the cameras and scanners they are equipped with, they know the pickup and delivery destination and are capable of creating alternative routes. Their work is recorded at all times, and this also ensures better product traceability. They have a speed of up to 1.8 meters per second and a battery life of up to 15 hours between charges.

Increasing storage space

Optimizing storage capacity is another of the major challenges facing all e-commerce businesses. In fact, it is a key aspect for 44.4% of companies in the sector, as revealed by the VDC Research Group study. Automation allows for maximizing the use of available warehouse space, as well as improving the organization and access to stored products.

Automated solutions come in a wide variety of formats and designs that allow for the efficient movement of goods in a space that is minimized to the minimum. Spiral-shaped overhead conveyors or sorters are a perfect example of this. Furthermore, thanks to their extensive adaptability and customization capabilities, sorters can adapt their length, height, and layout to the specific needs of each case.

MIM Patchwork Service: A Success Story

A company can integrate and combine different intralogistics automation solutions depending on its needs and objectives.

MIM Patchwork Service’s new compact ‘MPW-24/VP’ system is capable of measuring, weighing, sorting, and recording merchandise in less than a second. To achieve these results in record time, the solution combines artificial intelligence (AI) with the latest RFID technology, electronic weighing, 3D visual measurement, and various high-precision cameras. This device, which requires only 4 square meters of warehouse space for installation and is compatible with other automation solutions, reduces merchandise management, sorting, and distribution time by up to 67%.

Intralogistics automation has become a vitally important strategy in today’s logistics landscape, thanks to the significant competitive advantages it offers. In fact, as Deloitte noted in its study “The robots are waiting? Are you ready to reap the benefits?”, “90% of organizations that have implemented automation systems consider that they have exceeded their expectations in terms of productivity, costs, and improved process execution.”

A compact device with the latest technology

MIM Automation has designed this compact system to meet the increasingly demanding needs of the sector. Thanks to its ability to execute multiple tasks simultaneously, it solves operational problems with unprecedented speed, eliminates bottlenecks, and increases productivity.

RFID induction. The device features an RFID reader that allows for quick and accurate (virtually instantaneous) identification of each product. This accelerates the inventory process and reduces errors in product management.
Electronic weighing. The system features a functional electronic scale up to 100 kg that determines the weight of objects in real time. This data is recorded and integrated with the company’s systems to provide accurate information on merchandise handling.
3D visual volume measurement. The device uses 3D binocular vision technology to capture a three-dimensional image of the object. This information enables more efficient management of storage and packaging space.
Traceability and video surveillance. It captures real-time images of logistics operations carried out in the system to improve the security and traceability of these activities. This recording is stored so that, if necessary, it can be reviewed and analyzed.
AI Facial Recognition. Artificial intelligence algorithms analyze the facial characteristics of the person using the device to authenticate the user and ensure that only authorized personnel can access certain specific system functions.
Key Benefits of the Equipment

This unique integration of multiple processes into a single platform translates into strategic benefits that revolutionize inventory management and logistics processes in various industries, such as logistics, where it optimizes the handling and distribution of goods; courier services, as it facilitates the sorting and shipping of packages; e-commerce, where it improves the accuracy and speed of order management; and supermarket logistics, where it streamlines inventory control and the packaging process. The main benefits of this system include:

Packaging optimization. MIM Patchwork Service’s compact equipment increases packaging rates and reduces associated costs by combining volume, weighing, and reading measuring devices.
Warehouse cost reduction. With accurate, real-time measurements, the system improves inventory organization and maximizes warehouse space utilization thanks to its compact size. Furthermore, by combining multiple types of technology, it reduces investment in multiple devices.
More efficient distribution. This device, thanks to its high accuracy and speed when performing multiple tasks, increases distribution efficiency and reduces labor costs.
Impact on the industry

To illustrate the impact of this system, consider the following case study. Companies in the sector spend an average of 3 seconds to process each product. Therefore, scanning approximately 10,000 units requires approximately 8.3 hours of labor. However, with just one of these systems, the same process could be completed in 2.7 hours. This saving of 5.6 hours translates into a 67% improvement in operational efficiency. If, instead of a single device, as in this example, several were incorporated, the benefits would multiply exponentially.
