OPEX® Corporation, a prominent name in Next Generation Automation for almost 50 years, announced that it is adding RFID scanning to its cutting-edge Sure Sort® Warehouse Automation technology to meet client needs and improve operational speed and efficiency.
Sure Sort has long been the go-to warehouse automation solution for distribution centers, retail outlets, and third-party logistics seeking efficient and accurate order handling, cross-docking, and reverse logistics. The system is scalable, reliable, and has high throughput.
OPEX now offers RFID scanning to meet client demands, particularly apparel manufacturers and retailers. Hidden bar codes in clothing impede operations and demand additional operator handling. Scanning doesn't require a visual connection because RFID uses radio waves. RFID scanning is famous not only in the clothing industry but also in the processing of cell phones and pharmaceutical processing, to name a few purposes.
President of OPEX Warehouse Automation, Alex Stevens, stated, "The expansion to RFID is just another example of how we live our values and principles to listen and be responsive to customers' needs." He added, "It is another great tool in our growing portfolio of modular and flexible warehouse automation technology and solutions."

Responsive warehouse automation technology is essential with rising labor costs and supply chain issues. For example, Sure Sort robotic delivery vehicles, known as iBOTs®, can process up to 2,400 items per hour with as few as three operators and recharge as they move through the system.
OPEX will exhibit at NRF 2023 from January 15–17 at Javits Center in New York City.
