Warehouse and Logistics Automation in Practice

Automated storage, mobile robots and conveyor systems as they actually behave in a working site: at peak, with awkward stock, and when one unit goes down mid-shift.

What participants can do afterwards

  • Explain how the automation on your site routes work and where it queues
  • Handle the exceptions that automation reliably creates
  • Keep throughput when a unit is out of service
  • Spot the process change that would help more than more hardware

A facilitator runs the course live, in person or live online. Attendance is taken per session, participants submit work against the modules above, and a facilitator grades it. Those records stay with the organisation and can be exported.
