Intelligent data driven real-time control solution to automate and unify material handling automation in manufacturing and warehouse operations.
Robust and Scalable Warehouse Control System (WCS) Increases Productivity and Profitability
Numina Group’s Real-Time Distribution Solution, RDS™, is the leading Tier One real-time warehouse control system with a highly flexible real-time control environment that manages and controls a wide variety of equipment.
Flexible and Scalable
RDS is based on a micro-service development environment with dozens of pre-developed control modules and interfaces to rapidly connecting PLCs, Ethernet conveyor controls, sorting, order tracking control in a true real-time control engine for managing sensors, motors, barcode scanners, and camera inspection control decisions in under a 250 micro-second time window.
RDS track-and-control logic ensures never missing a beat in warehouse control applications providing the “Plant Floor Brain” that integrates and synchronizes the latest materials handling automation technologies with your warehouse management system.
The Numina Group brings more than 35 years of material handling automation experience to every project delivering customers design expertise and “rock solid” WCS performance and reliability that meets and exceeds the most demanding control performance specifications.
Comprehensive WCS Software & Support
We offer the convenience of working with one firm for end-to-end warehouse system integration services, including warehouse design, WES superior control performance, software, conveyor system know-how, and guaranteed 24/7 support service.
RDS serves as the foundational warehouse control platform to improve and accelerate pick, pack, and ship processes that result in a fast ROI (return on investment).
Additionally, RDS WCS functionality is enhanced with warehouse execution functionality to provide advanced order release planning that optimizes material flow and traffic flow for maximum efficiency and lower labor costs.
High-Capacity for High-Volume Operations
RDS is a robust and modular warehouse automation software platform that scales from small and mid-size warehouse distribution centers to large, sophisticated 100,000 orders/day high-capacity warehouse environments. The system handles a million or more transactions per shift deployed on virtual servers, Google and Amazon Cloud computing environments.
A warehouse control system (WCS) is a software platform that coordinates and directs a wide range of warehouse receiving and fulfillment activities. The WCS is typically integrated with a warehouse management system (WMS) and/or enterprise resource planning system (ERP), as well as a wide range of warehouse automation technology including material handling equipment types such as conveyor systems, warehouse robots, goods-to-person (G2P) systems, carousels, automated storage and retrieval (ASRS) systems, sortation systems, palletizers and more. The WCS receives order and product information from the WMS/ERP system and coordinates the timing and tasks of the facility’s equipment and staff.
The Numina Group’s RDS WCS solution is differentiated by its advanced real-time control capabilities and added warehouse execution functionality, all on one unified platform.

RDS WEC-WCS Family of Modules
RDS WES-WCS delivers true real-time warehouse execution and control in sub-milliseconds to a host of automated warehouse technologies including:
Order Release Optimization
RDS directs integrated order release to increase picking productivity above traditional methods.
Cartonization Software
RDS pre-selects the carton and polybag shipment sizes and directs picking to the right-sized carton, eliminating touches.
Victory Voice
Multi-modal voice picking enforces order picking rules combining Batch Carts, AMRs, fork trucks, and pick to conveyor processes.
AMR Robotic Picking
RDS synchronizes workers and autonomous mobile robots (AMR) picking tasks to increase picking efficiency by 30-50%.
RDS manages returns and shipping sortation, including sweeper, tilt tray, cross-belt, Bombay, narrow belt, and shoe sorters.
GTP Automation
The latest generation of robotic G2P are cost-effective and scalable solutions, especially if the order profile consists of a large percentage of split case order volume.
Robotics
Numina’s RDS™ Batchbot™ solution combines warehouse voice picking technology and AMR batch pick carts, uniting people and robots working as guided vehicles to reduce labor costs and double order fulfillment productivity.
RDS brings together all the elements of your order fulfillment process, from basic data collection to sophisticated process optimization by managing product movement and material handling equipment with real-time control. RDS operates with real-time (sub-millisecond) multi-function control to execute tasks and business rules with automated material handling equipment.
Bridging the Gap
The RDS WCS platform integrates with any warehouse management system (WMS) or enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, bridging the gap between your order entry, resource planning, and order fulfillment technologies.
RDS also includes easy-to-use, web-based diagnostics and user web screens, and API interfaces to all WMS and ERP system capabilities to significantly reduce our clients’ software development expenses.
Numina Group also provides warehouse design services to ensure that your warehouse operations have the most effective warehouse design to maximize efficiency and throughput while reducing labor costs.
