Indianapolis, IN -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/13/2016 -- Bastian Solutions, the leader in material handling systems, was recently profiled in Robotics Tomorrow magazine, discussed improved throughput in manufacturing and distribution with robotics. According to the author, manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler, few systems integrators have the robotics expertise to implement improved process solutions that drive both labor optimization and significant production throughput. Bastian Robotics, a division of Bastian Solutions, is a leading integrator of industrial robotics systems which automates factory operations with custom, innovative technology, increasing throughput productivity while reducing costs, and protecting employees with improved ergonomics.
Bastian Solutions' thought leaders Bill Bastian II (CEO) and Aaron Jones (President) shared several examples of successful robotics automation.
For its Torrance, California facility, King's Hawaiian turned to Bastian Solutions to help them automate their case palletizing and handling process. The bakery doubled throughput with robotic palletizing and AS/RS. Two existing bakery facilities were successfully integrated into one and finished goods capacity nearly doubled from 6,500 lbs. /hour to 12,000 lbs. /hour. The damage to the freezer from fork truck activity was eliminated.
