RightHand Robotics, a leader in robotic picking technology, has received a strategic investment from Rockwell Automation, one of the world’s foremost names in industrial automation and digital transformation. This relationship marks a new chapter for how warehouses and logistics centers may operate, promising to make automation more intelligent, reliable, and accessible.
Uniting Experience and Innovation
The partnership was announced in March 2025, at a pivotal moment for RightHand Robotics. Having recently restructured its operations and placed co-founder Yaro Tenzer as CEO, the company was poised for expansion across Europe and North America. The support from Rockwell Automation not only brings vital financial resources, but also the expertise and industry credibility needed to accelerate the adoption of RightHand’s technology in new markets.
The RightPick 4 System
At the center of this collaboration is RightPick 4, an intelligent robotic piece-picking system built for today’s fast-paced warehouses. Using advanced artificial intelligence, computer vision, and adaptive robotic grippers, RightPick 4 is designed to select individual items of many shapes and sizes, excelling in environments where speed and accuracy are crucial.
The system stands out for its reliability—managing millions of picks every month with minimal errors. Reports indicate that intervention is required as little as 0.01% of the time. This means warehouses using RightPick 4 can handle a vast range of products swiftly and with remarkable consistency. For businesses that process thousands of different items every day, this level of dependability offers a clear edge in fulfillment efficiency.
The Power of Partnership
By investing in RightHand Robotics, Rockwell Automation is weaving this advanced picking technology into its wider suite of industrial automation solutions. The goal is to make it easier for warehouses—and the system integrators who build them—to introduce robotic picking without unnecessary complexity or risk.
Evan Kaiser, Industry Sales Director for Warehousing and Logistics at Rockwell Automation, highlighted the importance of giving system integrators the right tools: intelligent robotics that fit seamlessly into the larger operation. Matt Rendall, CEO of Clearpath Robotics by Rockwell Automation, underscored RightHand Robotics’ leadership in piece picking and shared his excitement about making robotic fulfillment simpler and more reliable for all customers.
Shaping the Future of Warehousing
This partnership represents more than a financial investment. It reflects a shared vision for the future of logistics—a future where warehouses are built for speed, accuracy, and flexibility, powered by automation that can keep up with changing demands.
Supply chains across the world face growing pressure to deliver orders rapidly and with precision. The combined strengths of Rockwell Automation and RightHand Robotics make it possible for more businesses to deploy advanced robotic picking on a larger scale. Not only does this promise smoother operations, but it also sets the stage for fulfillment centers that require less human intervention yet achieve higher performance.
A Step Forward for Industry
Yaro Tenzer described the agreement as a true win-win that will speed up RightHand Robotics’ path to new markets and profitability, while extending Rockwell Automation’s reach in warehouse automation. By working together, they aim to solve some of the most complex challenges facing the logistics and manufacturing sectors, making warehouses smarter, faster, and more adaptable.
This moment is an important signal: as automation becomes more advanced and integrated, the potential for transforming supply chains grows. The union of Rockwell’s industrial know-how and RightHand’s robotic intelligence brings the industry closer to automated fulfillment that is efficient, scalable, and ready for tomorrow.
