Current economic conditions place efficient loading and unloading of trucks in the focus of companies and industries
By using automated truck loading and unloading systems, quantifiable reductions in time, labor, space and material are achieved.
The systems also have a positive impact on ergonomics, safety and less damage to goods.
This technology is relatively unknown, but growing exponentially!
To date, it is estimated that only about 1% to 5% of all trailer loading and unloading occurs automatically!
Of course, the pandemic has also accelerated this process.
Automated truck loading and unloading systems can contribute especially to the optimization of the supply chain, logistics, with a quick return on investment in high volume applications and short driving times.
How is it in practice?
Basically, the automatic truck loading and unloading system is a system whereby pallets are introduced and removed from trucks robotically, with minimal operator intervention.
The system is an excellent logistical solution that allows loading or unloading in just 3 minutes, thus optimizing:
- The time of carts on the docks;
- The number of trucks between factories and DC's;
- The use of non-dedicated forklifts at the time of operation.
