Robotic logistics systems are in increasingly high demand as solutions for dealing with the surge in deliveries of small parcels, the result of continuing worldwide growth in the e-commerce market. At LogiMAT 2018, TISS will demonstrate SCARA (Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm), a robotic logistics solution comprising an intelligent, horizontal multi-axis automated induction system that operates without any need for prior motion programming and teaching.

TISS's many years of experience, along with its world-class engineering capabilities in areas including image recognition, mechatronics, control regulation and IT systems, have positioned the company as a leading global supplier of postal automation systems. Leveraging these essential competences, TISS is now enhancing robotic systems to support provision of total solutions for postal and logistics system, and is directing resources to addressing the challenges faced by today's postal and logistics industries.
