High-Impact Areas for Supply Chain Automation

Automation enhances supply chain efficiency, reduces labour costs, and improves product safety. Some key areas for supply chain automation are:

De-palletizing stacked goods

De-stacking

Delivery to the packaging line

Product loading

Palletizing (mechanical or robotic)

Tosca enhances supply chain automation with automated pick-and-place systems, including an automation conveyor picker featuring secondary cell technology.

Tosca uses an Automatic RPC Erector, a fully automated machine for folding and unfolding crates that reduces labor costs and improves safety.

Is Automation Right for Now?

For most companies, large-scale automation isn’t the first step. Enhancing efficiencies now can pave the way for a smoother transition to automation in the future.

Do You Have the Right Perspective to Improve Efficiency?

Bringing in diverse viewpoints, including external insights, can reveal hidden inefficiencies and identify issues that impact downstream processes.

Are Your Processes and Systems Fully Optimised?

Automation requires an updated, optimised warehouse management system to enable efficient scheduling and ensure employees are focused on the right tasks at the right time.

Do You Have Buy-In from the Right People?

Overcoming resistance to change is crucial. Gaining support from key internal audiences ensures effective and successful change management.
