Yusen Logistics Improves Visibility and Efficiency with DexoryView

Posted on 13 June, 202431 July, 2025 by David Priestman

Yusen Logistics, a global supply chain solution company, provides businesses with ocean and air freight forwarding, warehousing, distribution services and supply chain management that provide reliability, excellence and value. The company is constantly looking for ways in which it can improve its services to its end customers, including leading electronics manufacturers. Yusen Logistics has implemented a global visibility platform, DexoryView from Dexory, the global leader in AI-powered robotics and visibility solutions.

As a result of the deployment, Yusen Logistics is now able to conduct wall-to-wall scans of its entire warehouse within two hours each day. This process used to take over one and a half weeks each month and over 100 hours of manual labour. Previously, Yusen Logistics carried out two annual wall-to-wall checks of the entire warehouse, but through generating real-time data each day, the company has also been able to remove this task completely, saving an additional 205 hours of work annually.

The implementation of the Dexory technology will play a pivotal role in Yusen Logistics’ efforts in streamlining warehouse operations whilst ensuring seamless order fulfilment processes. Just one of the benefits means it can now analyse the entire warehouse and see how errors impact the overall workflow in the warehouse.

“Yusen Logistics are investing in digitisation and automation to provide our customers with real time visibility of their inventory. The use of robotics and automation helps to optimise our warehouse space, which reduces costs, improves performance and stock accuracy, and removes down time for manual stock takes,” said Darren Felstead, Head of Contract Logistics.

The collaboration between Yusen Logistics and Dexory represents a strategic alignment of expertise and innovation, with both companies at the forefront of transforming the industry. As Yusen Logistics looks ahead, it remains committed to leveraging the latest technologies and forging partnerships that further drive operational excellence and customer satisfaction.

“Third party logistics providers need to be able to execute on customer strategies and provide innovation and efficiency to drive both theirs and their customers’ businesses forwards,” says Oana Jinga, Chief Commercial and Product Officer and Co-Founder at Dexory. “Together, Dexory and Yusen Logistics are paving the way for a new era of supply chain management, powered by real-time data and our global visibility platform, that further enhance the value provision to their end customers.”

Dexory Robotics and AI into USA

Posted on 7 March, 202425 July, 2025 by David Priestman

Dexory, a leading provider of cutting-edge AI and robotics solutions announced the first deployment of its robotics and artificial intelligence solution in the United States. Dexory’s technology is now in use at one of DB Schenker’s significant sites in Utah. This follows Dexory’s strategic expansion announcement into the North American market in early February.

In a swift and efficient implementation, Dexory unveiled its cutting-edge DexoryView solution, featuring state-of-the-art autonomous mobile robotics (AMRs) and a seamlessly integrated digital twin. The rapid deployment has resulted in the generation of real-time data points, providing DB Schenker with immediate insights into its operations.

DB Schenker, a global leader in logistics and supply chain management, is to leverage Dexory’s technology to enhance its real-time visibility of stock and occupancy tracking capabilities. With a focus on promoting efficiency and optimizing resource utilisation, the DexoryView solution scans the Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) area of the site, covering a staggering 40,000 pallet locations daily.

Leveraging advanced computer vision and AI, DexoryView provides clear, visual insights for every shelf and height level. This eliminates the need for manually checking discrepancies and ensures important operational information is easily accessible. It emphasizes priority actions, helping to make operations more efficient.

Daniel Spencer, Director – Solutions & Engineering at DB Schenker Americas comments “We are excited to introduce Dexory’s promising technology in our warehouses. The deployment of Dexory’s robotics and AI solution underscores our dedication to staying at the forefront of technological advancements and highlights our pursuit of operational excellence.”

The collaboration between Dexory and DB Schenker teams has been instrumental in ensuring a comprehensive success of the integration and utilization of the DexoryView solution. Working in tandem, both teams are committed to maximizing the potential of the collected data, enabling the effective deployment of robotics and AI in the logistics and supply chain industry.

“This live deployment signifies a major step forward in Dexory’s mission to revolutionise how businesses approach logistics and operational efficiency. The progress achieved with DB Schenker serves as a testament to the power of innovative technology in transforming traditional practices, ushering in a new era of precision, speed, and insight in the world of logistics”, says Oana Jinga, Chief Commercial & Product Officer at Dexory.

Dexory looks forward to further collaborations and deployments that will continue to redefine industry standards and drive operational excellence. To find out more for yourself, Dexory will be exhibiting at MODEX in Atlanta from March 11-14 alongside representatives of DB Schenker at booth #B708.

Warehouse Digital Twins with Artificial Intelligence

Posted on 15 March, 2023 by Keith McKinley

Synkrato, the next-generation logistics platform with Digital Twin, Mobility, Digital Labelling, and AI-Driven Logistics (slotting), announced a major update to their Digital Twin and slotting solutions. The update allows users to connect a warehouse digital twin to the slotting engine and perform slotting and re-slotting using digital twins.

“We believe the key to supply chain resilience and innovation is to simplify transformative technologies. Companies are looking for solutions that streamline operations without requiring a high level of IT skills, said Amin Sikander, Synkrato president. “Managing slotting algorithms in a spreadsheet is a labour-intensive, error-prone process, especially with a lot of inventory coming in and going out. By connecting Synkrato Digital Twin to the adaptive slotting algorithm, businesses gain real-time warehouse efficiency through a user-friendly interface.”
Maximum warehouse capacity utilization and reduced travel time

After users create a digital twin, the latest version of Synkrato automatically provides recommendations on where to find, store, and relocate inventory within a warehouse. According to Sikander, “warehouse space and labour availability are both becoming scarce in some areas of the United States. The shortage of warehouses, rising rent, and capacity constraints have firms searching for ways to get the most out of their existing industrial space. Additionally, low inventory visibility and poor pick-up paths require extra labor to prepare orders at a time when finding warehouse operators is challenging. This software update helps companies optimize their available resources.”

Synkrato’s dynamic digital twin sends data to slotting, like inventory location, distances, sales history, personnel, and stock levels, in real time. The slotting algorithm then uses this data to provide ongoing slot recommendations for all incoming and outgoing orders in real time. This integration simplifies slotting and supports an agile strategy by removing bottlenecks, recommending optimal pick paths, and streamlining put-away.

“Imagine a warehouse with a single staging area and three inventory storage zones. The price to move inventory to the staging area is proportional to the distance, so the closest distance has the lowest movement cost. Synkrato provides recommendations on where to store products based on sales history, forecast, and staging distance to reduce costs and order-preparation time, all from the digital twin interface,” said Jason Mancuso, Synkrato product director.

Synkrato is showcasing its Digital Twin and AI-Driven Logistics solutions at ProMat 2023 in Chicago. Synkrato was also selected as a Best IT Innovation award finalist, an award presented by MHI at ProMat to recognize innovative supply chain products. Attendees can visit Synkrato at booth #N6256 to see a live demonstration.
