Case Study: a large housing goods discount retailer achieves 23/7 cart-moving automation with Vecna Robotics ATG tuggers

Public discount retailer moves hundreds of tugger carts per day at $9.73 per hour per robot

a large housing goods discount retailer needed to efficiently move hundreds of oddly-sized material carts through its facility, which operates nearly 24/7. The company implemented Vecna Robotics' ATG tuggers to automate this material handling process.

Vecna Robotics provided an automated solution using five of its ATG tuggers to move material nonstop to and from loading docks. This deployment achieved a remarkably low operational cost of $9.73 per hour per robot and resulted in a positive return on investment in less than eight months, all while supporting the facility's 23-hour daily operation.
