Airbus, the world's largest airplane manufacturer, is expanding its usage of robotic solutions at its Rochefort, France logistics facility. Airbus expects to be manufacturing a staggering 1,000 aircraft a year by 2025, which would significantly increase its requirements for parts picking in its warehouses. Airbus' partners at the Rochefort warehouse are Blondel Group and Scallog. Specifically, logistics company Blondel manages the warehouse and has installed Scallog robotic systems to accelerate operations. Blondel Group plans to deploy the Scallog solution on the Rochefort site, which will include two preparation stations, six "Boby" robots and 160 shelves, in order to "gain in speed and competitiveness" in its picking of parts, while limiting the arduousness, in particular the work in staggered hours.
