ADDRESSING THE 8 WASTES: MINIMIZING MOTION Are unnecessary movements wasting effort and reducing efficiency in your operations? SlipBots automate the load/unload processes, reducing forklift operator labor and unnecessary movement. WASTE #7 | MOTION Motion waste involves unnecessary movements by people or equipment, leading to inefficiencies and increased risk of injury. The loading dock is full of motion waste with forklift operators repeatedly moving in and out of trailers, often making 30 trips to load/unload a single truck. This inefficiency leads to reduced productivity, bottlenecked docks, and increased worker fatigue and risk of injury. ADDING VALUE WITH SLIP SlipBots eliminate motion waste by automating the loading and unloading process. In traditional setups, forklift operators make around 30 trips in and out of trailers to load a single truck. SlipBots reduce this to just 3 automated movements. This 90% reduction in unnecessary movement also eliminates the need for operators to enter trailers, cutting down on worker fatigue, enhancing safety, and boosting productivity. Eliminate unnecessary motion with SlipBots. Learn more at sliprobotics.com. #Robotics #WarehouseAutomation #LeanManufacturing #SupplyChain #Logistics

ADDRESSING THE 8 WASTES: ELIMINATING WAITING How much time is wasted waiting at your dock? Waiting times can significantly impact your operations' efficiency. SlipBots drastically reduce waiting times, enhancing workflow reliability and consistency. WASTE #3 | WAITING Waiting involves time spent waiting for the next process step to occur, leading to inefficiencies and delays. 23% of a truck driver’s workday is typically wasted idling and waiting for their truck to be loaded/unloaded at a dock. This waiting can significantly impact operational efficiency, causing delays and bottlenecks in the workflow. ADDING VALUE WITH SLIPBOTS SlipBots drastically reduce waiting times associated with manual loading and unloading. With SlipBots, trailers can be loaded and unloaded in 5 minutes, reducing driver idle time and increasing overall efficiency. Manufacturing plants often rely on just-in-time (JIT) delivery of raw materials. With SlipBots, plants quickly unload incoming shipments, reducing waiting time for materials on the production line. This helps maintain a smooth flow of production and minimizes downtime. Reduce waiting times and boost efficiency with SlipBots.

The last point of comparasion between 4-way pallet shuttle and mother/child shuttle. Factor 1: Different warehousing modes Warehouses with many varieties and small batch sizes, or warehouses with few varieties and large batch sizes, are suitable for four-way pallet shuttle transport. However, the mother-child shuttle is only suitable for warehouses with few varieties and large batch sizes. Factor 2: Different inbound and outbound strategies The 4-way pallet shuttle can First-in First-out, but mother-child shuttles cannot. Because it is wasteful to deploy mother shuttles to every peripheral track. But 4-way pallet shuttle can reach any storage location in the warehouse, including every peripheral track. Factor 3: Flexible attributes Mother-child shuttles can only run on their own tracks. If a mother shuttle stops working, the goods beside cannot be stocked in and out. If a 4-way pallet shuttle stops working, the system can send instructions to other 4-way pallet shuttle,the warehouse can operate normally. In this point, the mother-and-child shuttle is as inflexible as the crane ASRS. Factor 4: Efficiency differences Because mother-child shuttles can only run on their own track, the crane ASRS can only run on a fixed track, the efficiency cannot be maximized. But 4-way pallet shuttle can. When the goods of one floor are centralized in and out of the warehouse, all 4-way pallet shuttles can reach this floor to work. #warehouseautomation #intralogistics #robotics #shuttle #pallet #storage #rack #ASRS #crane #stackcrane #AGV #forklift #warehouse #outbound #inbound

What do you do if the customer wants a pick & place application for different products? 🔴 In the production and logistics sector, "pick and place" is one of the key technologies that makes it possible to organise processes more efficiently and flexibly. And process lines with different products are no longer a rarity - what counts is variability and flexibility💡. ➡️We can offer a wide range of end-of-arm tooling components from vacuum cups for every application and industry,to quick change systems to parallel grippers, sprue grippers, gripper fingers and ejectors, so we are perfectly positioned in terms of variability and flexibility. Thanks to the high adaptability of the systems, a wide variety of items can be handled safely, regardless of their size, shape or composition. This means fewer errors, higher productivity and ultimately more satisfied customers. www.fipa.com . . . #endofArmTooling, #Robotics, #Automation, #pickandplace, #pickplace, #cobots, #logistics, #gripper, #vacuumcups, #vacuumcomponents

https://lnkd.in/gPQBdqsD The initial robot removes the boxes that have jugs inside and places them onto the conveyor for filling before stacking them onto a pallet. the automated conveyance system takes the pallet which is labeled with the product to the warehouse to interface with a warehouse management system. This labor saving system is becoming more common as packaging automation proves to the a sound investment.

Pallet Transport Solution. . This is Dave. Dave had plans to go hiking with his friends and enjoy the beautiful weather. But as luck would have it, disaster struck on a Friday afternoon while trying to move a heavy pallet at work. Dave strained his back as he attempted to move the pallet. He could not stand up straight, and the pain in his back was excruciating. Reluctantly, he realized that his weekend plans were ruined. . Meanwhile, John, his Supervisor, must scramble and find a replacement for Dave because he will be laid up for a week. John is already short-handed on employees and is not sure what to do. .
