Locus Robotics

The next era of warehouse automation will be built for uncertainty. In this piece for SupplyChainBrain, Rick Faulk highlights a critical shift happening across the industry: rigid automation models are being challenged by cost pressures, labor variability, and demand volatility. Flexibility is no longer optional. Operators need automation strategies that can adapt as their business evolves, support consistent performance, and reduce the risk of being locked into assumptions made years earlier. The next era of warehouse automation is built for change — are you? #Automation #WarehouseAutomation #SupplyChain

As warehouse environments become more dynamic, solutions like Locus Array are redefining what’s possible, removing up to 90 percent of labor from key workflows while delivering consistent, high-throughput performance at scale. At the same time, traditional automation is reaching its limits. Fixed systems cannot keep pace with shifting demand, labor volatility, and evolving workflows. What does it take to maintain performance in this kind of environment? Join Locus Robotics on May 13 for a live executive webinar where Kait Peterson, VP and Head of Marketing, will discuss how leading operators are scaling throughput, reducing labor dependency, and adapting in real time with Flexibility-First Automation.

Warehouse leaders are making faster decisions as demand shifts, labor fluctuates, and operations get more complex. But most teams still don’t get to see what automation actually looks like in a live environment. Join Locus Robotics for the Automation Advantage Tour in Columbus, Atlanta, and Dallas. • Hear how operators are improving pick rates and reducing travel time • See Person-to-Goods workflows inside a working facility • Ask questions directly with teams running automation today Space is limited.

Warehouse leaders are navigating constant change as demand volatility, labor variability, and operational complexity continue to impact daily execution. Maintaining consistent performance is becoming harder to predict. How do you stay on track when conditions shift without warning? Join Locus Robotics on May 13 for a live executive webinar focused on how leading organizations are adapting to uncertainty and maintaining throughput at scale. Kait will share how flexible automation strategies are helping teams stay resilient while keeping operations moving. Register today: https://bit.ly/48M1SWg

#MODEX2026 was one to remember. Across our 10,000-square-foot booth space, we welcomed more than 3,000 visitors to experience Locus Array live for the first time. Throughout the week, the energy, curiosity, and excitement around the future of automation were impossible to miss. Here are a few of our favorite moments from the show. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the week so memorable. Didn’t get a chance to stop by? We’d be glad to connect. Learn more below 👇

After more than 10 years of vision, innovation, and purpose-built engineering, we are deeply proud of the overwhelmingly positive response to the launch of Locus Array at #MODEX2026. To see this work recognized by MHI among the top three for Best New Innovation—out of more than 200 submissions across all categories—is a powerful testament to the significance of this technology, the strength of the solution, and the impact Locus Array is already beginning to have across the industry. To our entire team at Locus Robotics, and to our customers, partners, and the broader Locus Robotics ecosystem, thank you! https://lnkd.in/er5atFHM

That’s a wrap on #MODEX2026. 🎬 This show never disappoints. Great conversations, inspiring speakers, and the industry’s first live look at Locus Array in action. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and made this our most memorable MODEX yet! Until next year👋🏻

Not every #MODEX2026 conversation happens on the show floor. In fact, some of the best ones can happen once you step away from the booth. Over a drink, people can pause for a minute and talk through what’s working… and what’s not. Last night in the Truist Club at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, we hosted our Automation Advantage: Cocktails & Connections event, and it felt like exactly that kind of moment. Coming from the hustle of the show floor, it was a chance to slow down, catch up, and talk with customers, partners, and colleagues in a setting that didn’t involve a badge scan or a demo. Those conversations always land differently. You hear what teams are seeing in their own warehouse operations, where things are holding—where they’re not—and how people are thinking about what comes next. That perspective matters. And yes, in the middle of it all, a two-foot-tall Locus Array cake that became its own conversation starter. A fun detail, and a good reflection of the energy around what we’re building. Grateful for the time and the people who made the night what it was. Take a look at the highlights from the evening.
