# Warehouse Order Delivery Robots Ocado Unveiled Two New Robots to Improve Order Efficiency By Colin Smith | Published 2022-02-22 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ocado-600 References: [cnbc](https://www.cnbc.com/2022/01/26/kroger-partner-ocado-unveils-new-robots-and-software.html) & [ocado](https://www.ocado.com/webshop/startWebshop.do)  'Ocado,' the tech company based in the United Kingdom, has unveiled two new robots, the 'Ocado 600 series,' and a new Ocado robotic arm. The Ocado 600 series is a robot that is essentially an improved version of the brand's previous robots. The 600 series has the same AI-powered systems and boasts a lighter weight, greater energy efficiency, and easier production system than the previous iterations. The 600 series is then more suitable for widespread deployment to [grocery warehouses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phl-group) for [efficient order preparations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robotics-fulfillment-platform), such as gathering and packaging orders. The Ocado robotic arm is designed to mimic the human arm's ability to pick up items off of shelves in a warehouse. The main features of this arm over other robotic arms are its enhanced precision, advanced artificial intelligence, and accurate grip system that results in it closely mimicking the efficiency of a human arm.
