Break down the silos between your existing data — stored in ERP and WMS systems, SCADA systems, CMMS systems — and combine IoT sensor technology to get access to even more data. Having universal access and constructing the links across previously disconnected information is the foundation for measuring and improving your overall logistics effectiveness. Increase labor productivity, increase automation throughput, reduce equipment downtime & maintenance wrench time and extend the life of your facilities as your business scales. Use real-time alerts to take immediate action on operational or equipment issues, look at daily and historical trends to adjust your optimize your operations and use predictive algorithms to maintain equipment before it breaks.

How Robotic Automation Technologies Are Enabling the Migration to Lights-Out Distribution: The rapid expansion of eCommerce and its shift to single item picking is placing huge pressure on traditional labor-intensive picking operations. The growing struggle to find, train and retain quality labor is affecting fulfillment efficiency and accuracy at distribution centers around the country. This presentation will cover the various ways Robots and AGV technologies can solve critical picking and sorting challenges in the warehouse today. From machines that use sensors to see and selectively choose items, to ones that work side-by-side with humans (such as AGVs that automatically load and unload trailers), robots and automation are helping companies gain efficiencies and tackle labor shortages, potentially creating a lights-out distribution environment.
• Presenters: Crystal Parrott, VP of Robotics, Dematic & Nathan Wolf, Director of Mobile Automation, Dematic
• Location: Automate Conference on Tuesday April 9, 10: 00 am - 11: 00 am
