What makes a good warehouse automation system? It must be able to increase efficiencies and eliminate redundancies without adding a significant amount of cost. CASI offers award-winning products with the capability to transform your lines into truly modern workhorses.

Why do I need to automate?

There are many reasons to automate. From today’s tight labor market to the pressure to increase output, there has never been a better time to consider automation.

While automation does not replace your valuable employees, it can:

• Reduce the amount of labor spent on highly repetitive tasks
• Eliminate long trips between stations on your different assembly or packing lines
• Help employees focus their efforts on their specific job
• Improve order-picking output by as much as 85 percent

Efficient warehouses are profitable warehouses. They are also more resilient to changing goods and labor market fluctuations.

What processes can I automate?

There are many promises when it comes to artificial intelligence and automation. However, it is important to keep in mind that some of the most difficult tasks to automate include manual labor. It is easier to replace an analyst than someone performing non-repetitive tasks.

Automation currently targets processes that require the most repetition and produce the largest improvements in output. Packing items, opening boxes, transporting goods throughout a facility, and scanning inventory are all examples of highly automatable processes.

That is not to say that improvements in artificial intelligence and robotics will eventually find solutions to more complex problems. CASI is at the forefront of technological innovation as a winner of the Fanuc Top Robotics Integrator and Innovation Award for three years.

Automation as an Aid

Reducing repetitive labor has a resounding impact on ROI, especially when it comes to order picking. Machines can work alongside labor to improve output.

When pickers no longer need to carry goods to packing or other stations, they can work faster without working beyond their limits. With the state of the labor market, there is even the hidden benefit of reducing all too common burnout among employees.
