March is a month that celebrates diversity and inclusion, with several global events aimed at creating awareness and combating discrimination against various marginalised groups.

Warehouse automation set to undo pandemic slowdown

The future is upon us as automatic systems shift warehouse efficiencies

As the world becomes increasingly digitised, businesses are turning to automation to increase efficiency and productivity in their operations. One area where this is particularly evident is in warehouse management, where the use of robots is becoming increasingly common.

HAI Robotics is one company at the forefront of this trend, offering cutting-edge robotic solutions for order fulfilment and warehouse management. Their robots can handle a variety of tasks, including picking, packing, and transporting goods, and can be programmed to work alongside human employees to increase productivity.

One of the key benefits of using robotics in a warehouse setting is the ability to maximise space utilisation. Robots can navigate narrow aisles and reach high shelves, allowing for more efficient use of vertical space. This, in turn, can lead to increased storage capacity and reduced costs.

However, it’s important to note that while robots are great at performing repetitive tasks and can increase efficiency in a warehouse, they are not a substitute for human employees. Human workers still play a critical role in the supply chain, particularly when it comes to tasks that require decision-making, problem-solving, and creativity.
