Webinar: Overcoming Material Handling Challenges with AMRs For 2022 and Beyond

 February 7, 2022

 

DATE: February 16, 2022
TIME: 02:00 PM EST/ 11:00 AM PST

Businesses are experiencing an array of material handling problems from labor shortages to increased demand and customization. Automation has moved from nice-to-have to must have, but one of the most challenging tasks to automate is material handling because business needs and facility conditions are constantly changing. Even the most automated facilities still move material manually.

Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are an intelligent, flexible, and scalable solution that can be deployed and re-deployed quickly against a variety of workflows to deliver immediate benefits.

In this webinar, Jay Judkowitz, VP Product, and Neil Datt, Director of Product Marketing at OTTO Motors, will discuss:

  • •How AMRs can improve material handling processes to increase output
  • •Specific workflows AMRs can address and key considerations
  • •Examples of successful AMR deployments in greenfield and brownfield facilities including ROI, KPIs and TCO
