02 · SUITABILITY

When to consider material handling automation

The indicators below can help you decide whether to submit the task for an initial review.

Repetitive material flow

Materials or parts regularly move between defined operations.

Manual handling limits production

Moving, waiting for or locating parts affects output and staff workload.

Defined material range

Dimensions, weight, containers and material handling requirements are known or can be established.

Sequencing requirements

Infeed order, buffering, separating flows or traceability matters.

Integration potential

Existing operations and available space can be surveyed to integrate handling equipment.

03 · SOLUTION SCOPE

What a material handling solution may include

The exact scope depends on the task and production conditions.

04 · INITIAL INFORMATION

What information will help us start?

A complete specification is not required. Start with what you have.

  • Photos and video of the current operation
  • Available drawings, diagrams or documents
  • Information about products, parts or materials
  • Production volume and workload pattern
  • Space and infrastructure constraints
  • Output and quality requirements

05 · FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers about initial information, solution scope and integration with your existing production area.

Do I need a complete technical specification?

No. A description of the task and available materials, such as photos, video, drawings or product parameters, are enough for an initial review.

Can I start with just a video of the current operation?

Yes. A video helps establish the current situation. Further assessment may require additional information.

Can an existing production area be automated?

This is assessed against the equipment, layout, process, safety and integration requirements.

How is the solution configured?

It depends on the product, manufacturing process, operating schedule, site constraints and interaction with existing equipment.

Can you provide a price straight away?

A reliable price requires initial information. It depends on the equipment scope, integration, safety and work required.
