Material handling applications, like stacking flat products, can greatly benefits from the integration of robots into the
process. The main drivers for adding robotics are:
- a need for a safe work environment
- cost reduction
- consistent manufacturing rates
- increased quality through minimizing product damage
MCRI stacks other large, flat building and other products such as drywall, paneling, sheetrock, plywood, extruded plastic glass, and other specialty building products.
