Case Study: DCL Logistics achieves 500% productivity increase with Universal Robots UR10e cobot

Universal Robots Delivers 500% Productivity Increase at DCL Logistics

DCL Logistics, a U.S.-based omni-channel 3PL serving electronics, digital-native brands, and medical technology customers, needed a flexible automation system that could fit its existing fulfillment workflow and improve speed, accuracy, and labor efficiency amid rising e-commerce demand and tight labor markets. The company was looking for a solution that could handle high-mix picking and packing in a way that could scale with seasonal surges.

Universal Robots provided the answer with a UR10e cobot, along with UR+ certified peripherals, to automate picking, scanning, and packing into boxes. The system delivered a 500% productivity increase, 50% labor savings, 100% order accuracy, and a three-month ROI, while operating safely alongside workers and helping DCL run its fulfillment line 24/7.
