viastore Systems released a new eBook titled, "15 Myths About Warehouse Automation, Debunked." The eBook is a compilation of the 15 most common myths about warehouse automation, debunked with facts. The second myth: Warehouse automation is too expensive; our operation can't afford it. The fact is just as there are a variety of material handling automation technologies, there are a range of costs associated with each. Generally, the more complex and holistic a solution is, the more equipment and integration will be required and the higher the cost will be. The higher costs will be offset by increased efficiency, increased order accuracy, and/or space savings based on the solutions implemented.

At the heart of a material handling system are its control and its mechanical parts. viastore Systems recently released an information guide on retrofitting and modernizing businesses' material handling processes. When the control technology starts to show its age, the availability of the system will decrease, and spare parts will no longer be attainable. The outcome, unscheduled downtimes, failed deliveries, production halts, and annoyed customers. Viastore Systems modernizes the control systems step by step. Often the new and old system will work in parallel, with clearly defined back up strategies. The change over to the new system is done on the weekend, during scheduled downtime, or during working hours. viastore's experienced project managers ensure smooth and speedy implementation. The benefit is more dependability and better performance.
