…reduce labor costs, work around the clock, and add precision to certain tasks. The robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) model enables companies to pay for hardware, software, and services as an operational expense rather than an upfront purchase. Increase productivity: Robots may take up less space than human workers or human-driven vehicles, which is crucial when warehouses are running at capacity. In goods-to-person applications, well-managed workflows can combine human flexibility with robotic precision for greater throughput. Some warehouse managers have reported a significant boost in productivity. Safety: Warehouse workers often face repetitive stress, extreme temperatures, and even high-voltage environments. Forklifts are involved in…
