INDUSTRY 4.0 SKILLS

ABB & Apotea

Three ABB robots in the logistics centre of Sweden’s largest online pharmacy, Apotea, enable the automation of the company’s logistics. ABB’s IRB 4600 industrial robots sort the parcels directly into the designated transport trolleys and thus significantly support the shipping process. As a result, productivity has increased by 30% and 2 million more parcels were delivered in 2019 than in 2018. Additionally, the robots improve the work of employees as they perform more varied and skilled tasks.
