5 Tips for the Smart Combination of Humans and Robots

This whitepaper guides warehouse management by highlighting 5 tips on what to consider when introducing CollaboMation solutions. It will also illustrate how operations can go about implementing these solutions. Humans and machines can and must work together, not against each other.

This whitepaper will answer questions like:

• Will the barcode remain the primary interface for CollaboMation (collaboration + automation) in the warehouse environment?
• How can technology such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), or collaborative robots (cobots) interact with humans?
• How can CollaboMation generate massive productivity increases?
• How do data-driven analytics solutions provide valuable insights and identify additional room for improvement?

Automation solutions offer great potential, but full automation is rarely practical or even possible. Instead, warehouse operations should strive for CollaboMation, a smooth and efficient collaboration between human workers and automated systems.
