Owing to&nbsp;the use of&nbsp;a&nbsp;robot instead of&nbsp;a&nbsp;traditional locker system it&nbsp;occupies a&nbsp;small portion of&nbsp;the retail space, which is&nbsp;at&nbsp;a&nbsp;premium in&nbsp;smaller stores. A&nbsp;major part of&nbsp;the installation can be&nbsp;located behind the shelves. Due to&nbsp;its capacity and smallest footprint, this solution is&nbsp;unparalleled in&nbsp;the parcel locker market, which is&nbsp;traditionally only suitable for bigger spaces. According to&nbsp;our estimates, it&nbsp;can fit 90% of&nbsp;local stores. For retailers, it&nbsp;means increased in-store footfall with up&nbsp;to&nbsp;70% pick-up to&nbsp;purchase ratio. The solution can reduce last-mile delivery costs, but also traffic and pollution by&nbsp;up&nbsp;to&nbsp;90%. The first device was installed at&nbsp;Zabka convenience store chain in&nbsp;May 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"975\" height=\"548\" src=\"http:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/arctan-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3749\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Arctan was designed to&nbsp;revolutionize shopping. The system consists of&nbsp;a&nbsp;single block of&nbsp;storage for logistic bins (94 or&nbsp;202 depending on&nbsp;the version chosen). And the delivery device itself is&nbsp;made up&nbsp;of&nbsp;hatches that open to&nbsp;give customers access to&nbsp;their command, without human intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The customer scans a&nbsp;QR&nbsp;code in&nbsp;front of&nbsp;a&nbsp;reader, which triggers the delivery of&nbsp;the order. The corresponding bins (with the orders) are brought by&nbsp;an&nbsp;automatic device from the storage area to&nbsp;the collect &amp; load drawer. The customer collects his groceries, then the drawer closes. If&nbsp;the order contains frozen foods, these must be&nbsp;collected in&nbsp;a&nbsp;specific cabinet. Two or&nbsp;three customers can collect their orders simultaneously (depending on&nbsp;the module installed). Arctan is&nbsp;dual-temperature (4 degrees and -18\u00b0 for frozen foods, which are stored in&nbsp;a&nbsp;dedicated freezer) and emphasizes compactness of&nbsp;installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In September 2020 we installed the first Arctan in Paris. The first consumers\u2019 comments are very positive \u2013 they appreciate convenience, simplicity and possibility of orders\u2019s collection&nbsp; whenever they want. We strongly believe that our solution, developed in next months, will provide clients&nbsp;with the best user experience, helping retailers to increase customer loyalty in a very competitive online environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read the whole article:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/postandparcel.info\/127331\/features\/e-commerce-features\/last-mile-robotic-revolution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/postandparcel.info\/127331\/features\/e-commerce-features\/last-mile-robotic-revolution\/<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our CEO, \u0141ukasz Nowi\u0144ski and Julian Kozankiewicz, Chief Product Officer are talking about their innovative machines which are already being deployed with their first major business partners.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4078,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3748"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3748"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3748\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4079,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3748\/revisions\/4079"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4078"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3748"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rr.fwch.pl\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
