ok so I said

  • a packing robot can't change products without reprogramming

you said

  • there are two warehouses you know of that are fully robotic

I said

  • that takes more organization elsewhere though, e.g. supply chain

you said

  • how would supply chain affect the robots

I said

  • by changing the availability of certain products in different stocking locations

if the product has to come from somewhere that isnt one of the two robot warehouses it affects the robots because they aren't being used, if the product is a different shape / size / weight or in different packaging it affects the robots as they have to be recalibrated

edit to say most warehouse robots are more like giant dumpsters that follow a human around and the human puts the products in the dumpster.

No... The robots are generalized to work with any product, any shape, size, packaging, etc. That was the point made in my first comment.

Your edit shows you don't even know what kind of machines are even using used. They are absolutely not just dumpsters filled by humans. It's multiple machines, working together, controlled by an algorithm. They can adjust their behavior on the fly to fit any order. That is the entire point of these testing warehouses; to develop a 100% machine controlled warehouse.

I guess we have different experiences. My prior experience was ITAM and ITSM procurement and third party maintenance on server equipment, support both sales and field maintenance spares on short term SLAs. And the warehouse robots there were very much calibrated per SKU and per warehouse.

I then moved into the supply chain software space, mostly covering similar supply chain but we've branched out to cover other use cases (fashion, cpg...) but everything we work with has a specific buyer <> supply chain set up.

It's totally understandable that different businesses could have different set ups
