Rover is more than a pallet shuttle—it’s a fully integrated material handling solution that supports storage, retrieval, staging, and sequencing within a single, unified system. Designed to handle a wide variety of operational needs, Rover enables streamlined automation across ambient, refrigerated, and freezer environments, adapting seamlessly to your workflow.
At the core of Rover is a centralized software platform that manages every layer of the system—from shuttle movement and lift coordination to inventory allocation and order sequencing. This intelligent platform eliminates the need for multiple third-party systems, reducing complexity and improving visibility.
With flexible integration into your WMS or ERP, Rover’s software gives you real-time control over inventory, order fulfillment, and system diagnostics—all in one place.
Whether you’re starting with a single temperature zone or planning a multi-zone distribution hub, the system’s modular architecture makes it easy to expand storage lanes, add vehicles, or integrate lifts as demand increases.
Rover operates on a shared software platform, expanding your system doesn’t require a full rework—just plug in new modules and go. This flexibility helps future-proof your investment, enabling a phased approach to automation without sacrificing long-term performance or ROI.
- Supports a dynamic pick module with multiple pick faces, ideal for operations with high SKU counts.
- Rover enables dynamic picking by intelligently retrieving pallets based on real-time demand, order priority, and trailer sequencing. The system can adapt to changing fulfillment schedules and supports FIFO, LIFO, or mixed inventory strategies—all without manual re-slotting or reorganization.
- Facilitates efficient goods-to-man picking from pallets or shelving units, suitable for various warehouse and retail spaces.
- Rover supports a goods-to-person picking model by automatically retrieving and delivering pallets from dense storage directly to designated pick stations. This reduces operator travel, improves picking accuracy, and boosts overall efficiency—especially in high-mix, high-volume environments.
- Rover allows pallets to be positioned and queued in designated staging zones prior to dispatch. By enabling precise and efficient staging, Rover ensures that pallets are organized and ready for timely transfer, reducing wait times at the loading dock. The system can adapt sequencing priorities based on dispatch schedules and delivery requirements, optimizing the workflow and ensuring a seamless outbound process.
- Rover sequences pre-order staging according to delivery or route sequence, improving loading efficiency.
- Rover enables efficient pallet staging by queuing outbound orders in advance based on shipping schedules. This minimizes dock congestion, reduces trailer loading time, and improves overall throughput by aligning warehouse activity with transportation timelines.
- Capable of handling full and mixed pallets, allowing for flexible order compilation.
- Rover is engineered to handle a wide range of pallet types, sizes, and weights—including CHEP, slip sheets, and custom configurations. This flexibility makes it ideal for operations with diverse product profiles and mixed-load requirements.
- Rover can be used to optimized case picking applications, ensuring safe and efficient operations within your facility. Our system integrates with existing case picking setups, enhancing throughput and accuracy.
- Pallets can be staged for access to high-demand SKUs, and dynamic sequencing allows operators to pick by order priority, delivery route, or product type—maximizing throughput and minimizing travel time.
- Rovers can operate on tracks outside the racking structure to deliver pallets to various infeed/outfeed locations.
- Accommodates multiple production lines, enhancing workflow efficiency.
- Rover supports multiple drop-off and pick-up locations within the facility, enabling seamless transfer of goods across different temperature zones, inspection points, packing areas, or outbound docks. This flexibility allows the system to adapt to a wide range of warehouse workflows and operational layouts.
