…operations, said Kevin Paramore, emerging technology commercialization manager at Yale Materials Handling Corp. The labor situation is different now, but due to social distancing measures and health and safety policies requiring workers who are feeling ill to stay home, distribution centers may still have difficulty maintaining their workforce. The end effect is that more operations will see automation as part of the answer to labor shortages. “When you consider all the factors like the high turnover rate in warehouses, and rising labor rates as part of what some call the 'Amazon effect,' that makes the return on investment timeframe shorter…

…operations, says Kevin Paramore, emerging technology commercialization manager for Yale Materials Handling Corp. Now as the economy and the materials handling world deals with pandemic effects like higher unemployment, the labor situation is different, but due to health and safety policies put in place that keep workers who are feeling ill at home, it remains challenging for DCs to count on having enough workforce. The end effect is that more operations will see robotic lift trucks as part of the automation answer to labor shortages. “When you consider all the factors like the high turnover rate in warehouses, and rising…

…vertically, says Kevin Paramore, emerging technology commercialization manager for Yale Materials Handling, a lift truck provider. “The technology’s value comes in providing for very consistent, repeatable processes while reducing labor requirements,” Paramore says. Paramore advises that autonomous lift trucks, tow tractors and other robotic vehicles typically don’t operate as fast or aggressively as a human operated equivalent does, which is why Yale figures it takes about 1.3 robotic lift trucks to replace the workload of one human-operated vehicle. However, with many DCs running multiple shifts, while struggling to find enough operators, robotic trucks can bring payback in as little as…

…North Haven facility probably stocks a good selection of Yale-related merchandise since the university is just down the road; for a facility in California – not so much. Sortable items that are small enough to be handled on a conveyor and sortation system go to facilities like North Haven, while non-sortables go to facilities designed to handle larger items. At the North Haven facility, newly received merchandise is decanted into totes, including products that can be shipped in its transport packaging. Those totes are then routed to one of four pick module levels. On each level, robots and storage cubes…
