Navigating the Future: Darwynn's ASRS Journey with HWArobotics
Darwynn, a leading Canadian third-party logistics provider, caters to both B2B and B2C businesses offering cutting-edge fulfillment solutions across the North American market. Utilizing an advanced intuitive platform and multiple strategically located fulfillment centers, Darwynn provides customers with localized warehousing, logistics and after-sales services, covering every process from inventory management to last mile delivery.
As the number of SKUs within its facilities increases, Darwynn sought to meet the demands of its expanding business while enhancing service quality, efficiency, safety, and sustainable development capabilities. Through collaboration with HWArobotics, Darwynn has successfully optimized warehouse operations at one of its logistics centers in Toronto.
The comprehensive solution from HWArobotics features a multi-level shuttle ASRS system of 10,368 storage locations, 24 standard SLS300 shuttle robots, 6 goods lifts, along with picking stations and WCS.

With 20,000 individual SKUs managed by the new facility, the HWArobotics Shuttle ASRS "goods-to-person" system increased Darwynn's throughput to 2,400 bins/hour, reflecting a significant boost in operational efficiency. In the first phase of this project, storage is configured as 3 double-deep aisles and 8 levels for the efficient parallel operation of multiple shuttle robots.
The shuttle ASRS solution, with picking stations and WCS systems, seamlessly integrated into Darwynn's end-to-end fulfillment operations via HWArobotics' industry-leading speedy onboarding process. This integration has resulted in a range of benefits for Darwynn and its customers, including:
