Roboware, a logistics robot service provided by Gaussy Inc. (Minato-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Shingo Sakurai), has introduced the 3D sorting robot "Omni Sorter" to the Narashino Center of New Way Co., Ltd. (Urayasu City, Chiba, President and CEO: Junjiro Maru). We are pleased to announce the release of an interview video detailing the results of operating the Omni Sorter over the half-year since it began operation.
1. Background and Effects of Introducing Omni Sorter
Founded in 1989, New Way provides comprehensive logistics solutions, primarily for the apparel industry, ranging from EC (mail order) logistics support to BtoB logistics processing and outsourcing. They operate 19 bases in major areas nationwide, including Chiba, Osaka, and Mie, handling logistics outsourcing for over 250 companies annually.
At the company's Narashino Center (Narashino City, Chiba Prefecture), which recently introduced the Omni Sorter, they handle daily goods for 100-yen shops expanding nationwide. They felt significant challenges in terms of both cost reduction and securing human resources for the manual sorting of high-mix, low-volume shipping operations. The interview video details the results achieved during the company's half-year operation of the Omni Sorter, as well as future initiatives to achieve even higher productivity.
Effects of Introducing Omni Sorter (See the video for details)
Operational efficiency: Achieved an efficiency increase of approximately 42%, exceeding initial expectations.
Cost reduction: Suppressed labor costs to about half of the conventional level.
Labor saving: Sorting work for 100 stores, which required 15 people, can now be done by 5 to 6 people.
Points of satisfaction: Flexible customization to suit the merchandise, and extremely low failure rate ensuring stable operation. Quick familiarization, with results showing within 2 months of introduction.
