Task Automation

Automation promises to bring new levels of efficiency and productivity to distributors in a wide array of industries. However, optimizing material handling operations and driving sound ROI starts with automating the right processes for your business. Look for processes that are:

  • Repetitive, with little variation
  • Subject to high employee turnover
  • Troubled with other inefficiencies

Warehouse Automation Benefits

It just makes sense to automate your warehouse or distribution center with robotic lift trucks once you realize all the benefits you’ll enjoy. Automation with a robotic lift truck offers:

  • An infrastructure free operation, because it uses your existing structural features, such as walls, racks and columns to self-locate and navigate it
  • Rapid deployment, because it can run with zero, partial or full integration with your warehouse management systems.
  • Scalability, because you can start small and expand with your operational needs.
  • Flexibility to accommodate your changing operational needs by allowing you to switch to manual operating mode with the simple touch of any button.
