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.
How Agilon keeps materials available where work happens
Materials need to be available, easy to find and ready to use.
Agilon connects automated storage, real-time inventory visibility and accurate transaction data in one system. Teams can see what is available, find the right items quickly and trust that every movement is recorded.
This supports reliable material availability, smoother replenishment and better daily decisions across the operation. Less manual follow-up. More control. 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 are stored and retrieved using 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.
