Whitepaper: Strengthening the Supply Chain with Automated Case Unloading
Tackle unloading of floor-loaded trailers and shipping containers with ease and precision. Stretch maximizes inbound productivity with reliable performance and minimal supervision.
Keep boxes moving daily with Stretch, and supplement operations through peak season and hiring challenges. A steady unloading rate and dashboard insights help you forecast and plan workflows.
Start unloading your first cases within days— installation is fast and requires no pre-programming of box sizes or types. Stretch makes all decisions in real time.
Stretch detects, grasps, and places boxes autonomously, working with boxes of varying sizes and types, from standard brown to highly graphical. Stretch works with minimal human intervention, even automatically recovering boxes that may fall during the unloading process.
In a single swing of the arm, Stretch's multipick functionality moves multiple boxes to the conveyor belt, adding up to significantly higher productivity. With intelligent placement, the robot releases the boxes one by one and spaces them apart, in a way that aligns with the rest of a warehouse's sortation system.
Stretch goes where you need it to, moving from point to point of activity. When Stretch finishes unloading one trailer, drive it to another dock door or deploy it elsewhere across your network.
Stretch is ready to deliver tangible results that improve how we work today.
