Michael J. Bearman, vice president at Vecna Robotics, is attending the 2017 MHI Annual Conference October 2-4, 2017 in Boca Raton, FL. The conference will focus on key themes identified by the US Roadmap for Material Handling & Logistics and the MHI 2017 Annual Industry Report including:

  • Industry 4.0
  • Building the Future Supply Chain Workforce
  • The Current and Future State of Distribution Center Technology
  • Marketing in the Supply Chain Industry

Each of these themes are congruent with Vecna Robotics Full Spectrum Automation.  According to Bearman, “With e-commerce exploding and customer expectations on the rise, distribution and fulfillment centers need an innovative way to reduce costs and increase throughput. Vecna’s full spectrum solution provides the complete range of low-infrastructure platforms to automate all of your material handling needs, giving you quick ROI and putting your competitors in the rear-view mirror.”

Vecna Robotics (https://robotics.vecna.com/), the leader in scalable hybrid order-fulfillment solutions, announced a strategic alliance with a leasing financial company. This new partnership will provide industry leaders with an affordable way, beyond its competitive pricing, to automate manufacturing, warehouses, and distribution centers.

Vecna Robotics provides a leasing option including both materials handling equipment and revolutionary disruptive IIoT monitoring. The leasing program ensures a rapid ROI and far less than the cost of employing and insuring a fork truck driver.

Engineers can choose between tuggers that pull a string of carts or trailers in a train; unit load carriers that move subassemblies and work-in-process from one assembly station to another; forked pallet trucks that interface with pickup and drop off points on the plant floor; and automated guided carts (AGCs) that are smaller, cheaper, and easier to install than traditional AGVs. AGCs are popular for applications where lighter loads and flexibility are required.

Vecna Robotics Materials Handling Leadership:

Vecna Robotics has quickly become the materials handling leader in the fork truck free environment while utilizing comprehensive Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technologies.

With e-commerce exploding and customer expectations on the rise, distribution and fulfillment centers as well as third party logistics (3PLs) providers and manufacturers require Vecna Robotics innovation. Case picking, goods-to-person, person-to-goods, robot-conveyor hybrid systems, Vecna Robotics has cost-effective solutions. All systems are safety certified to operate along-side people and can accommodate the operational model that achieves the best efficiency with unmatched flexibility.
