INNOVATION AS A GUIDING LINE
The idea was born inside the company NORCAN, a key player in industrial equipments, in front of the thousands of order-picking carts sold to E-commerce players. The objective was clear : how could order-picking operators be relieved of their workload, and how can we reduce their daily pain ?
Creation of the SHERPA brand and development of the 1st prototype of a collaborative mobile robot in follow mode.
Why the hand on our visual identity?
SHERPA frees up operators' hands so they can concentrate on their value-added missions.
