LABOR

Increasing demand is amplifying the critical need for qualified labor in manufacturing.

How can you retain qualified labor and reduce turnover? ?

• Redirect existing workers to more value-added tasks by deploying robotic solutions for repetitive tasks
• Utilize operator assist systems and telematics to reinforce operating best practices and simplify required checklists
• Use lift truck solutions with advanced ergonomics to help reduce musculoskeletal problems related to repeated operation

Keeping production lines flowing in manufacturing requires precise handling of materials at the right time and without interruptions.

How can you optimize your workflow and maintain steady production?

• Embrace technology to automate repetitive tasks
• Maximize uptime with equipment engineered to help reduce maintenance
• Deploy multiple carts in a series to minimize trips

Limited capital for new equipment can affect all aspects of your operation.

How can you better manage tight capital budgets?

• Right-size your lift truck fleet with a fleet management plan
• Establish an appropriate maintenance plan to help extend useful life of your equipment
• Evaluate leasing programs for lift truck acquisition needs

Manufacturing is among the top industries for workplace injuries.

Help improve employee awareness and reduce incidents

• Use telematics to track lift truck access and provide training alerts
• Implement automated solutions and redirect workers to more value-added tasks
• Evaluate whether forklift operator assist systems can help increase awareness and minimize risk in your facility

Manufacturers are early adopters of technology, but meeting the ever-increasing demand for greener processes still remains a challenge.
