Osaro’s AI-powered robotics software will combine with Mission Design & Automation’s expertise in kitting applications

To bring automation to more challenging applications for e-commerce businesses and third-party logistics service providers that need to combine flexible robotics with object identification and pick-and-place, Osaro has partnered with Mission Design & Automation.

The partnership blends Osaro’s artificial intelligence (AI)-powered SightWorks vision software and control technologies for robotics with Mission’s expertise in designing and deploying specialized robotics solutions across a broad array of applications in warehouses and fulfillment centers, such as depalletizing, kitting and bagging. The two companies are targeting kitting applications, which combine multiple products, or SKUs, into one larger order that is packaged in a single box with a new SKU and shipped to a customer.

Mission designs, builds and integrates automation technology for many industries, including food and beverage, medical device, transportation and automotive, and consumer goods.

“Osaro prides itself on developing partnerships with leading system integrators and third-party logistics providers to collaborate and deploy reliable robotics systems for warehouse and fulfillment operators,” said Osaro CEO Derik Pridmore. “We’re especially excited to announce that Mission Design and Automation is joining the Osaro Partners Alliance because we already have two robotics projects underway. We look forward to a long and productive relationship with the entire Mission team.”

“Our close partnership with Osaro allows us to deliver a strong integration of new technologies and ensure a happy end customer experience,” said Mission Vice President, Ryan Lillibridge. “At the end of the day, supporting our customer, delivering on their production needs and maintaining the trust they put in us is how we measure our combined success; working with great partners like Osaro enables us to do it. Our partnership with Osaro gives us easy access to its machine learning vision and control technologies for the design and integration of robotics systems across a broad array of e-commerce applications."
