And in Europe, 85% of associates mentioned they’re extra prone to work for an employer that gives extra fashionable units to make use of for duties.
Corporations like photobook producer CEWE are utilizing an Aurora-powered scanning resolution to boost operations at excessive velocity and quantity with 100% accuracy each time, whereas third-party logistics Noerpel Group has achieved 100% scan accuracy and time financial savings of fifty%. BMC has applied a wise, scalable mixture of AMRs and Aurora-powered scanning, whereas warehouse operators like Waytek profit from versatile, scalable robotics automation, alongside start-ups making meals manufacturing extra sustainable. AMRs may also make warehouses extra inclusive for front-line staff with sensory disabilities, as Austin Lighthouse reveals.
