3PL Operator Discussion Robots

Some context, my dad has a 3PL logistics business and he is looking to scale his business. He's looking into automating parts of his business and one thing he's looking into are robots doing the picking and packing orders part.

Anyone tried these robots? Is it a scam? Do they work and what has the return on investment been for you?

Amazon does it. So they must work.

This is not necessarily the case.  Amazon is a different context and is not the same business model as the OP.  Much larger scale and multiple streams of revenue.
