Integrate Your Automated Material Handling Systems
The manufacturing and distribution industry is changing. With the demand for immediate fulfillment in online retail in recent years, the industry has had to buckle down and streamline its processes, apply lean principles, and automate as much as possible. Making sure that these automated processes talk to one another — from assembly to replenishment — is crucial.
Why invest?
Integrated material handling systems are used in almost every industry. As this trend becomes the norm, you don’t want to be left behind and unable to compete. Introducing an integrated system into your warehouse is an optimal way to stay relevant and to stay ahead of the competition.
Automating wherever possible is a great start, but it’s important to take it one step further. An integrated system connects your automated processes into one cohesive system — increasing efficiency and overall product control while delivering real-time information to material and warehouse operators.
Perhaps that may seem like a big undertaking, but it’s worth it. This winning combination of hardware and software allows you to:
- Maintain flexibility to grow and adapt to meet future needs.
- Optimize space by recovering as much as 85% of wasted floor space.
- Increase throughput by up to 600%.
- Reduce manpower by up to two-thirds.
- Maintain a safe, ergonomic environment.
