Votes were cast for products and solutions in five categories, with Movu escala taking first place in the ‘Picking technology”, judged on three main criteria first, that the product is technically mature and available on the market. Secondly, it stands out significantly from its market competitors thanks to innovative features. Finally, the entry offers customers a clearly recognisable benefit.

The award-winning Movu escala is the next-generation, flexible robotic automated bin storage and retrieval sub-system – for even the most miniature applications of bin-compatible products. Robots move along a sophisticated rail track that connects every location point within the dense storage and retrieval rack – from fellow stow Group company, stow Racking – transferring between levels via ramps. This eliminates the need for maintenance-intensive conveyors, lifts, service aisle access and sequencers. Intelligent management software, combined with the innovative rack design, allows the sequencing of bins at multiple points within the system and the goods-to-person workstations.
