This month, Guozi Robotics Co. and Staples Inc. celebrated the ninth year of their strategic partnership. Over the course of this collaboration, the two companies have signed two strategic cooperation agreements, and Guozi has supplied Staples with more than 1,000 robots.
These robots include a wide range of picking automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and have been deployed in key warehouse locations such as Charlotte, N.C., Pennsylvania, Denver, and New York.
“The robots have been reliable partners in my work — they are efficient, stable, easy to use, and simple to maintain,” stated an unnamed Staples Pennsylvania warehouse equipment manager. “They have boosted our productivity, and Guozi’s service is excellent. I look forward to continuing to work with these robots in the future.”
Guozi Robotics offers AGVs and software
Guozi Robotics has developed mobile robots for logistics and manufacturing. Its robots are equipped with full-scenario intelligent navigation, multi-agent dispatching, flexible collaboration, and interaction capabilities. The Zhejiang , China-based company claimed that it has provided robots to over 1,000 customers in 20 different countries.
Guozi’s product portfolio includes lifting AGVs, automated forklifts, picking robots, and larger heavy-carry AGVs. It said it holds more than 1,500 patents, including multiple Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) international patents.
Guozi Robotics said it has developed a comprehensive series of picking AGV products, including double-deep reach, adaptive, and dual-mast models. The company’s self-developed integrated software, GRACE Xpress, offers full-process simulation, which it said significantly shortens on-site deployment cycles.
It also includes AI-powered adaptive location calibration, using deep learning algorithms to rapidly improve storage positioning accuracy during AGV operation. In addition, Guozi said its robots allow for customized integration with users’ upper-level business systems.
