To stay competitive in the material handling industry,Seegrid View Provides Routing and Flow Optimization of Robotic Trucks Articles companies must increase productivity while reducing costs.  Seegrid View provides data to better understand forklift utilization and workflow patterns in only thirty days. 

Seegrid View is the easiest and fastest way to understand if there is an opportunity for robotic trucks to improve facility effectiveness.  Seegrid View produces specific, actionable information concerning labor savings, routing, and flow optimization.

Problem: Obtaining and analyzing forklift data is difficult and time-consuming.

•           Extracting data from enterprise software systems is often complicated and requires IT work.

•           Performing internal observation studies is labor intensive and produces only a small sampling of data.

•           The opportunity cost of allocating team members to collect utilization data and analyze it is high, and competes with daily production requirements. 

Seegrid View provides forklift utilization data and workflow patterns via Automated Data Collection. Self-powered View sensors are attached onto forklifts and racking locations in seconds and require zero IT support.  Seegrid View sensors are exclusively licensed from LogTrek for Robotic Industrial Truck studies. Seegrid’s View sensors record forklift movement data 24/7 over 30 days, ensuring that no shifts are missed and daily and weekly variations are captured.

•           Seegrid View Team – Experienced, certified professionals perform the work onsite and involve and educate the entire team.

•           View Reports – The collected data is summarized into clear reports and is presented with fact-based recommendations.
