Summary
Automation will play an important role in the future of the material handling industry. Many businesses are turning to automation technologies to solve for labor shortages, product damage, throughput, and much more. However, most don’t consider the loading dock and its major impact on supply chain productivity. The intent of this webinar is to demystify this commonly forgotten area of the automation journey.
During this hour session, Walt Swietlik and Allan Cairo, two of Rite-Hite’s industry experts with a combined 55 years of experience in loading dock design and numerous successful automation projects, will walk through some current trends and common pitfalls of loading dock automation designs and best practices you can use to help stay ahead of them.
Join us for a live chat from the Rite-Hite world headquarters Customer Experience Center.
