Apollo Robotics Joins Forces With Amplifier For Holiday Fulfillment Pilot

The partnership with Apollo Robotics with Amplifier had resulted in a successful pilot project - a reflection of Apollo's state-of-the-art features during the peak holiday season.

Amplifier tasked Apollo with sorting orders into outbound shipping containers for multiple carriers amid increased order volumes. Utilizing Apollo’s perception systems and dexterous handling technology, the robots demonstrated precision and efficiency in real-world conditions.

“This pilot project is a major milestone for Apollo Robotics,” said a company representative. “Collaborating with Amplifier allowed us to test and refine our technology in a first-class fulfillment environment.”

The pilot program showcased Apollo’s ability to integrate into an active logistics facility and emphasized the potential for robotics to enhance fulfillment processes during high-demand periods.

Amplifier’s CEO, Macon Stokes, noted the positive impact of the partnership:

“Working with Apollo Robotics brought efficiency and innovation to our operations.”

As Apollo Robotics continues its development efforts, this successful pilot marks a step toward broader adoption of robotics in logistics, positioning the company to help fulfillment centers meet rising demand with increased speed and accuracy.
