If you're selling a limited number of products over the course of Q1-Q3, and then suddenly you have this incredible spike in demand with peak season, that variability doesn't lend itself to sort of traditional forms of automation.
The world is changing, day to day, week to week, and what you are selling today may not be what you are selling tomorrow. In addition, consumer e-commerce demands can shift drastically – whether it’s the pandemic, the labor shortage, or seasonal spikes – different types of automation technologies are required to automate modern day warehouses, said Al Dekin, Chief Revenue Officer and Co-Founder of Locus Robotics. In this episode of Manufacturing Matters, Dekin and his colleague Vered Tomlak joined TECH B2B Marketing’s Jimmy Carroll to discuss an extensive range of automation topics, including advancements in AMRs and AI, the humanoid vs. AMR debate, and how companies can handle the automation demand during peak season. In addition, the discussion covers the approach Locus takes with understanding customer needs, some forthcoming technology announcements, the company’s recent milestone of achieving 4 billion successful robot picks, and more.
