Experience live demonstrations of the innovative system that automates 90% of warehouse travel and doubles worker throughput at Booth #N7520

WALTHAM, Mass. – March 14, 2025 – Vecna Robotics, the leader in flexible material handling automation solutions, is excited to announce its participation in ProMat 2025, taking place from March 17-20 in Chicago, Illinois. Attendees are invited to visit Booth #N7520 to experience live demonstrations of Vecna Robotics’ groundbreaking CaseFlow™ solution, a revolutionary approach to case picking operations in warehouses and distribution centers.

CaseFlow™ is an end-to-end solution that leverages pallet-handling robots to automate up to 90% of warehouse travel, orchestrating workers with dynamic, directed zone picking. This integration more than doubles site performance while enhancing worker satisfaction and safety. The system mitigates the labor-intensive nature of case picking, which comprises nearly half of all work in warehouse and distribution facilities. By automating significant portions of this workflow, CaseFlow™ offers a rapid return on investment and seamless integration with existing operations.

Companies that have adopted the solution are already experiencing significant gains. Vecna Robotics has worked with GEODIS, a world leader in transport and logistics, to develop a solution that could increase their case picking productivity by automating both robot travel and human work. Since fully deploying CaseFlow™ at its Indianapolis pilot site, GEODIS has more than doubled workflow productivity with no reported safety issues.

“We’re thrilled to demonstrate CaseFlow™ at ProMat 2025,” said Rich Bohne, Chief Commercial Officer at Vecna Robotics. “This solution addresses critical challenges in the warehousing industry, such as labor shortages and the need for increased efficiency. By automating the most labor-intensive operations, CaseFlow™ enables businesses to optimize their workflows and improve overall productivity.”

Key benefits of CaseFlow™ include:

  • Increased Productivity: Dynamic, directed zone picking removes the need for manual driving, resulting in more than a twofold improvement in units picked per hour through the orchestration of both human and robotic work.
  • Rapid ROI: With a reduced picking workforce required to handle daily volumes, return on investment is achieved in less than 12 months through Robots as a Service (RaaS) pricing.
  • Seamless Implementation: The system can be implemented in under four weeks with minimal upfront investment and no disruption to existing operations. Additionally, it offers a 50% reduction in new employee training time compared to traditional operations.

Warehouse operators and supply chain professionals attending ProMat 2025 are encouraged to visit Vecna Robotics at Booth #N7520 to witness firsthand how CaseFlow™ can transform their operations. Live demonstrations every hour will showcase the system’s capabilities and provide insights into its seamless integration within existing workflows.

Alongside the CaseFlow™ demonstration, Vecna Robotics’ CEO, Karl Iagnemma, will take the stage on Wednesday, March 19th, at 2:30 PM for a featured session titled “Collaborative Automation: The Evolution of Case Picking.”In this insightful discussion, Iagnemma will explore how case picking is transforming modern supply chains, shifting from traditional manual processes to intelligent, autonomous systems powered by robotics and advanced technologies. He will be joined by John Santagate, Senior Vice President, Robotics at Infios, and Tony Reinhard, Director, Connected Supply Chain at PWC, who will share their expertise and insights on the future of automation and human-robot collaboration in warehouse operations. The session will be held in the Supply Chain Theater 1.
