One system. Multiple ways to improve material flow.
Agilon is a scalable automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) for small parts, tools and spare parts. It helps organisations keep components, tools and spare parts available where they are needed by combining automated storage, real-time inventory visibility and connected material flow.
Agilon supports production, maintenance and distribution operations from a single scalable system.
Agilon capabilities for automated material handling
Automated storage and retrieval
Agilon stores materials in a compact, automated system and delivers the right items to the operator on demand.
Keep materials available where work happens
Know what is in stock, where it is, and when it moves.
Agilon keeps inventory information up to date as materials are stored, retrieved, picked, and returned.
Teams can find the right items faster, support timely replenishment, and spend less time searching or checking stock manually. The result is better material availability and more time for productive work.

How does Agilon work?
- Items are automatically stored and retrieved by a robotic system inside the modular Agilon structure.
- Materials enter and leave the system through access points or connected material handling solutions, depending on the setup.
- Every transaction is recorded for full traceability and real-time inventory visibility.
- Integration with ERP and WMS systems supports connected workflows, accurate inventory data, and automated replenishment.
- Agilon includes software for daily operations, inventory management, and reporting.
Every operation has different requirements.
