Hongkong Post partners with Geek+ to deploy 'groundbreaking' robotics packet sorting system

Hongkong Post has teamed up with Geek+ to implement its first robotic packet sorting system.

Geek+'s proprietary sorting and mobile robots have enabled Hongkong Post to simplify the overall workflow and achieve a more efficient and accurate sorting process in comparison to the traditional manual way of doing things which is more labour intensive.

The sorting capacity of the robotic system can reach up to 1,000 packets per hour.
