Fulfillment Automation System

Introduction

Template Systems is a France-based technology firm engineering an automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS). Their modular fulfillment automation system is designed to convert standard warehouse spaces into high-density automated storage areas. The core engineering requirement was a reliable, low-latency architecture capable of sustaining continuous operations.

Scope of Work

Hacod functioned as an integrated engineering partner, executing specific tasks to ensure system reliability from prototype validation to mass production. Our technical involvement centered on the following deliverables:

Board Design and Hardware Validation:

We delivered custom printed circuit board designs optimized for the specific footprint and power constraints of the ASRS modules. This included generating schematics and preparing the hardware for mass production.

Firmware Development and RTOS Integration

We authored and maintained system firmware using the Zephyr Real-Time Operating System.

This provided the deterministic execution required for high-throughput robotics.

We delivered systematic firmware updates to maximize system stability and component lifecycle.

Troubleshooting and System Diagnostics

We provided targeted troubleshooting support to isolate and resolve integration anomalies.

This required direct interaction with the hardware layer to ensure the control interfaces remained responsive and secure.

Our team was travelling to client every month to support with development.

Results and Impact

Our technical implementation provided Template Systems with the engineering speed required to meet their aggressive deployment targets. By adhering to modern firmware standards and maintaining strict component validation, we minimized project risk. The client noted that our specific expertise in Zephyr RTOS allowed us to grasp their architectural needs quickly and scale our support as their fulfillment automation system advanced toward market readiness.
