Strategic alliance for distribution centre automation in Western Canada

Integrating robotics and automated solutions to meet high volumes and faster delivery expectations in warehouses and fulfillment centres in Alberta and British Columbia.

CALGARY, May 31, 2021 - The collaboration between the Global manufacturer, ABB Robotics, and Canadian Integrators, Cam Industrial and Remtech Systems, is in line with each organization’s vision to bring automated solutions for logistics and supply chains in Alberta and British Columbia. With a high number of centres across the two provinces and a growing consumer demand, fulfillment centres need to be flexible, fast, and accurate to be successful in today’s changing market.

ABB is a leading supplier and manufacturer of industrial robots and software with a range of logistic automation solutions from mixed load palletizing, de-palletizing, sequence systems and storage retrieval systems.

Cam | Industrial and Remtech Systems are Value Providers and Integrators in Western Canada, bringing expertise in engineering, installations, commissioning and maintaining these automation projects.

ABB Robotics, Cam Industrial and Remtech are combining years of experience in logistics, distribution centres and robotic solutions to advance how Distribution Centres are getting products in the hands of consumers.

“In the past, many distribution centers have had to compromise volume for flexibility, or speed for accuracy. The modern distribution center needs to be able to deliver all of these – accommodating greater package variety and soaring volumes while meeting delivery expectations that have gone from days to sometimes hours.”

ABB Robotics is uniquely positioned to support both end customers and integration partners like Cam Industrial and Remtech Systems in the logistics industry with strong applications knowledge, modular solutions and the widest service and support network

In January 2020, ABB completed the acquisition of the leading Belgian robotics automation provider, intrion , now known as ABB solutions NV . The acquisition has advanced ABB’s logistics robotics offering, focusing on warehouse and logistics solutions for wholesale and retail distribution, e-commerce, food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries.

Cam Industrial and Remtech Systems are giving life to ABB’s concept of a fully automated distribution centre to Western Canadian e-commerce, food & beverage, and pharmaceutical companies that are looking to gain a competitive advantage.

To day, they have completed multiple automation projects in Alberta and British Columbia and have many more project starting in 2021.
