Reduce Strain. Minimize Risk.

Warehouses are fast-paced environments where repetitive motions, heavy lifting and awkward postures put workers at risk for fatigue and injury. Automation isn't just about improving efficiency - it's a game-changer for workplace ergonomics. By integrating smart, automated solutions, you can reduce strain on employees and create a more productive work environment.

Compare Cost & Performance

The true dangers are found in understaffed warehouses and overworked employees, further compounded by operational challenges surrounding e-commerce demands, SKU proliferation and seasonal order peaks.

Existing staff need to work harder and faster, sometimes taking on extra hours and overnight shifts, just to keep orders flowing out the door on time. Employees that work alongside automated equipment experience less fatigue. When it comes to warehouse safety, automation matters.

Human Employees

x  Cost average $30 per hour, fully burdened

x  Takes time off and requires breaks

x  Prone to lifting and bending injuries

x  Potential for operator error, especially in cold

x  Require ongoing OSHA and equipment training

x  Need supplemental safety equipment

Autonomous Equipment

•   Costs $7-$12 per hour

•   Work 24 hours a day without fatigue

•   Safe in dangerous facility settings

•   Follow all safety protocols

•   Travel optimized routes at consistent speeds

•   Work well in extreme heat or cold conditions
