The Kiva Mobile Fulfillment System (Kiva MFS) uses a breakthrough parallel processing approach to order fulfillment. Our unique material handling system simultaneously improves productivity, speed, accuracy, and flexibility. Kiva’s complete order fulfillment automation solution is sometimes compared to an automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS), but it’s so much more – more flexible, more accurate, more productive, much easier to use and more cost effective. Kiva is an order picking system like no other. Every distribution center (DC) strives to attain flexible, efficient order fulfillment but struggles with the limitations of current tools. Traditional automation and sortation systems such as conveyors, tilt tray sorters, sliding shoe sorters, horizontal and vertical carousels and other automated material handling systems simply tinker with Henry Ford's serial assembly line concept. Kiva Systems has created an innovative order fulfillment system that eliminates the constraints of existing warehouse automation and puts you back in control. In Distribution centers, warehouses and manufacturing plants equipped with the Kiva MFS, operators stand still while the products come to them. Pallets, cases, and orders are stored on inventory pods that are picked up and moved by a fleet of mobile robotic drive units. As a result, any product can go to any operator at any time to fill any order. Applications
