Based on the 2018 MHI Annual Report, investment in automation and robotics for warehouses will result in an increase from a current 34% adoption rate to a 73% adoption rate within the next five years. This will involve using robots for sorting, picking, packing and palletizing applications; conveyors and automated guided vehicles for efficient deployment of raw and finished goods to work cells; and automated storage and retrieval systems for optimizing facilities footprint.
