When automation underperforms, the technology itself may not be the problem. In this episode of MHI Cast, Pete Blair, Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Pickle Robot Company, Kyle Smart, Sales Manager of Emerging Technology at Hyster-Yale Group, Jay Howard, Product and Business Development Manager at Intralox, and Rick Fox, President and CEO of FOX IV Technologies, Inc. explore the systems, processes, and people behind successful deployments – from identifying breakdowns at critical handoff points to strengthening workflows before introducing robotics. They also discuss organizational buy-in, avoiding over-automation, and why building flexibility and resiliency into an operation can be just as important as choosing the right technology.
