Unloading
Simplify your container unloading

An estimated 28 million containers enter the US every year and their contents, usually boxes, need to be unloaded.

Due to the nature of container unloading, workers are getting repetitive motion injuries and back injuries. They also can easily slip and are working near big drop-offs.

This leads to costly labor, high turnover, reliability issues, and labor capacity that is not always aligned with the ever-changing throughput needs of the facility.

Our Pixmo robots can ease some of the burden for workers while providing enhanced operational efficiencies and predictability for the company. In the future, Pixmo will manage multiple box handling jobs.
