Und bis 2030 wird es Jahr für Jahr noch schlimmer. Weltweit haben über 69% der Unternehmen Probleme, ihre Stellen zu besetzen. Das sind 10% mehr als 2019! Corona? Krise? Pleitewelle?

Out With Conveyors, In With Autonomous Mobile Robots
The humble conveyor is no longer the symbol of warehouse automation. The robots are here.We’ve seen countless iterations of technology for automating warehouses and factories over the decades, but somehow the conveyor remained the essence of that evolution. Until now. Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are increasingly supplanting conveyors in the warehouse. They’re far more flexible and varied in the tasks they can perform, and more suitable for meeting the demanding needs of omnichannel retailing. On this episode, we discuss the development of AMRs with Wes Reid, senior vice president of products and operations with IAM...
