As the largest e-commerce promotion carnival of the year, Singles' Day produces a record number of parcels every year. As a bridge between merchants and consumers, the express delivery industry has become a "sweet burden". According to last year's data, the monitoring data of the State Post Bureau showed that from November 1 to 11, postal and express delivery companies across the country handled a total of 4.776 billion express mail, a year-on-year increase of more than two percent. Among them, a total of 696 million express shipments were processed on November 11, which rose steadily and hit a record high.
How to improve the efficiency of express parcels, so as to improve consumer satisfaction, has become the top priority of the express delivery industry. And cobots are playing an increasingly important role in the express delivery industry. With their high flexibility and flexibility, collaborative robots are also playing an increasingly important role in the e-commerce industry. Relying on the rapid development of China's e-commerce industry, logistics automation has been at the forefront of the world. From building intelligent equipment and technology systems to launching new unmanned logistics technologies such as distribution robots and intelligent express sorting systems, major smart warehouses began to prepare for the construction and transformation of Double 11 as early as 2018. Universal Robots also play an important role in express sorting and distribution.
When it comes to logistics projects where sorting accounts for 70 to 80 percent of the work, Universal Robots play an important role. An intelligent 3D collaborative robot integrating intelligent recognition, flexible grasping, and high-speed and sensitive completely solves the situation that high manpower investment is not proportional to efficiency. It can work side-by-side with humans on the factory floor, increasing productivity while supporting the transformation of production to mass customization. It is also the latest successful application of Universal Robots cobots in the logistics industry.

In a large-scale logistics intelligent warehouse base in Hubei, 4 UR10 robots combined with the 3D intelligent disordered flexible sorting system CGrasp independently developed by Cooper Technology live up to expectations, with an accuracy rate of more than 99.9% and a sorting efficiency of up to 600 pieces/h.
With the development trend of Industry 4.0, simple industrial robots can no longer meet the needs of more refined and intelligent operations, and human-machine collaborative robots have become a powerful innovative force in industrial manufacturing, which has given unprecedented flexibility and convenience to automated production. With the continuous development of human-machine collaborative robots, automated production will no longer be synonymous with long-term, large-volume, and single-product standardized manufacturing, but has the possibility of customized, small-batch, and multi-variety manufacturing.
Universal robots has accumulated a wealth of experience in the field of industrial robots for many years, and is constantly developing new technologies in line with the times. Universal Robots can show you the cutting-edge technology of cobots.
