Attabotics Inc.

Attabotics is a robotic storage and retrieval system for warehouses. Instead of rows of aisles, it uses a cube-shaped storage structure that robots move through horizontally and vertically. Its technology now belongs to LaFayette Systems, a family-owned material handling and automation firm.

What Attabotics offers

• Cubic Storage Structure — a modular three-dimensional grid designed to fit an existing or new warehouse.
• Attabot robots — units that travel in every direction inside the structure with direct access to any storage location.
• Presentation stations — workstations for picking, decanting, cycle counts and kitting.
• Control software — order management built for the structure and linked to existing ERP or WMS systems.

Who it works with

Operations that need goods-to-person storage and retrieval, including e-commerce, mobile commerce and omnichannel retailers.
