Dr.Max is Europe's second largest pharmacy chain with more than 3,000 pharmacies across 6 countries. The company installed Brightpick Autopicker robots to fully automate its order picking and order fulfillment in its Prague warehouse.

The robots pick more than 7,000 items per day to regularly replenish Dr.Max pharmacies and hospitals in the country. Brightpick Autopickers help ensure the reliable supply of medicines which are vital for maintaining the health and life of Dr.Max customers.

As a medical distributor, Dr.Max faces stringent regulatory requirements. To ensure compliance with these regulations, Brightpick’s software tracks each SKU and batch independently, and can quickly isolate and recall specific batches if needed (for example if a batch is found to be defective). In addition, Brightpick provides real-time visibility into the fulfillment process and inventory, and prioritizes picking from batches with the earliest expiration date.

Brightpick Autopicker is the only autonomous mobile robot (AMR) in the world capable of picking and consolidating orders directly in the warehouse aisles. The robot’s patented two-tote design enables it to retrieve storage totes (bins) from shelving and robotically pick individual items from those storage totes into an adjacent order tote. It does this repeatedly as it moves through the warehouse aisles until the order or batch has been fully picked. The robots use proprietary machine vision and artificial intelligence (AI) to reliably pick everything from ambient and chilled groceries to pharmaceuticals, medical devices, packaged goods, cosmetics, electronics, polybagged apparel and more.

In addition to in-aisle robotic picking, Brightpick Autopicker offers Goods-to-Person (G2P) picking for heavy or hard-to-pick items. The robot automatically takes those totes to a centralized Goods-to-Person station where a human picks the item. This enables companies to use the robot to maximize their labor savings without worrying about every single item being robotically pickable. The versatile Brightpick Autopicker can also be used for pallet picking, stock replenishment, dynamic slotting, order consolidation, buffering and dispatch.

The Brightpick solution takes just weeks to deploy and enables companies to reduce their picking labor by 98% and cut picking costs by half.
