Data first. Steel second.
Every automation project is designed from a SKU, cube and order-profile file the customer assembles by hand. That file never matches what actually crosses the dock. The sorter gets sized from it, the conveyor gets picked from it, the payback gets calculated from it — and when reality disagrees, the line saturates, the budget slips, and nobody can explain why.
Sizelabs comes at automation from the other side. We already sell the machine that produces that file. We measure your operation first, then we design the steel around what we measured.
Six stations, one record.
This is the whole offering. Not a catalog of machines, but the path a unit takes through your building — and the decision the measurement record makes at each stop.
One record per unit, created once at the dock and read by every machine after it.
Receiving
The box arrives measured, weighed, identified and photographed. Every decision downstream runs off that one record.
Transport
A conveyor does not move boxes, it moves decisions already made. Routing, speed and accumulation come from your real load profile, not from a catalog average.
Picking
The operator stops searching — the light says where and how many. Paths and slotting are built from measured dimensions, so the fast movers are actually within reach.
Packing
The right carton is chosen before packing, not after paying the freight. Cartonization runs on verified measurements and weight-check catches the miss before it ships.
Sorting
The sorter does not guess a destination — it reads the one written at the dock. Fewer failed diverts, less recirculation, fewer parcels hand-carried back to the start.
Palletizing & dispatch
Stacking patterns are calculated from real per-carton dimensions. Pallets ship square, without overhang, at the cube the carrier is going to bill.
Three ways in, ordered by how much you are risking.
Nobody should sign a system on a first meeting. Each level stands on its own and pays for the next one.
We measure your operation before quoting you anything
We install dimensioners at the points that matter and let your real operation run. No layout, no steel, no project commitment.
The real profile: measured cube by SKU, order mix, hourly peaks, and where the line actually breaks.
One automated station that pays for itself
We take the station with the worst return per labor hour and solve it end to end: a pack bench, a palletizing cell, pick to light in one zone, or a short sorting line.
A station in production, with a before and after measured on the same data as the audit.
The full line, on a single data layer
Design, integration, commissioning and support across transport, picking, packing, sorting and palletizing — engineered from the profile we already measured.
A system where every divert, every light and every stacking pattern runs off the same measurement record.
Three rules we don't break.
We don't quote steel without measured data.
We don't sell a station that can't pay for itself.
The data stays yours, in open format, inside your WMS.
We already run inside 250+ warehouses.
Automation vendors arrive as strangers and design from what you tell them. We arrive with the measurement layer already installed and design from what it recorded.
We sell the instrument, not just the opinion
The dimensioners that produce your SKU and cube profile are our own product line. The audit isn't a consulting exercise — it's our hardware running on your dock.
The data doesn't stop at the design
The same record that sized the sorter keeps running it. Diverts, carton selection and stacking patterns all read the field they were engineered against.
Your systems stay yours
Wilkins Assistant already maps into WMS, TMS and ERP entities. Automation inherits that integration instead of adding another island.
Do the math yourself first.
Questions we get asked first
Does Sizelabs sell conveyors, sorters and palletizers?
Yes. Wilkins Flow covers conveyor transport, sliding shoe and cross-belt sorting, robotic and conventional palletizing, pick to light and put to light, assisted pack benches and cartonization. We supply, integrate and commission them as one system rather than as separate machines.
How is this different from a traditional material handling integrator?
An integrator designs from a SKU, cube and order-profile file you assemble by hand. Sizelabs already sells the dimensioners that measure that profile directly, so the system gets engineered from recorded data instead of estimates — and the same record keeps driving the equipment after go-live.
Do I have to buy a full system?
No. Most customers start with a 30–60 day Flow Audit, then automate a single station with a Flow Cell before scoping a full line. Each level is a standalone commitment.
What does the Flow Audit produce?
A measured operating profile: cube by SKU, order mix, hourly peaks and the stations where the line actually breaks. It is the file an automation design should be built on, and it is yours whether or not you buy equipment from us.
Can automation integrate with my existing WMS?
Yes. Wilkins Assistant maps captured data into your WMS, TMS or ERP entities through API or webhook workflows, and the automation layer reads the same records rather than maintaining a parallel database.
Tell us the station that hurts most.
We'll tell you whether it's an automation problem or a data problem — and we're often the ones saying it's the second.
