Cartesian Kinetics provides Omni Rack Robotics (ORR), a system that automates existing warehouse racks without requiring infrastructure changes. This platform retrofits onto standard or mezzanine racking to create high-performance fulfillment engines. The service includes an eCarte+ Digital Twin for pre-deployment performance validation and ROI assessment.

Problem
Existing warehouse automation solutions often require significant infrastructure changes, are difficult to integrate, and lack the flexibility to adapt to fluctuating demands or diverse client needs. This can lead to costly and disruptive implementations, especially in space-constrained environments like micro-fulfillment centers and store-backs.
Solution
Cartesian Kinetics offers Carte+, a goods-to-person automation platform designed for rapid retrofit into existing warehouse racking structures. Carte+ enables the agile movement of products within a warehouse, optimizing storage and retrieval through learning algorithms and dynamic pick walls. The modular design allows for incremental scaling, while a cloud-native orchestration layer integrates with existing WMS/WES systems. Its multi-tenant architecture supports diverse client workflows, and a patented Digital-Physical Twin (eCarte+) facilitates pre-build validation and quick installation, minimizing disruption and maximizing throughput.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes e-commerce businesses, 3PL providers, retailers, and parcel services seeking to optimize order fulfillment, micro-fulfillment, store replenishment, and returns processing within existing warehouse spaces.
