Texas-based Voodoo Robotics has invented a new sales model for the next generation of Pick-to-Light systems. The new value proposition, according to Trevor Blumenau, CEO of Voodoo Robotics, recognizes that small manufacturers, distribution centers, and 3PL (third-party logistics) companies are seeking flexible, easy-to-learn, and affordable technology solutions that are fully scalable to grow or shrink with any company's requirements.

Voodoo Robotics introduces the Pick-to-Light Warehouse Starter Kit (voodoorobotics.com/starter-kit/). According to Trevor Blumenau CEO of Voodoo Robotics, "The Starter Kit includes ten Pick-to-Light devices, a turbo, which connects the devices to the Internet, and a management account. The components are leased on a month-to-month basis, so small manufacturers can reduce capital outlay, paying for only the lights needed (returning those unneeded). The system is the first variable inventory control expense in the industrial market based solely on use and need."

Everyday life is heavily dependent on electric supply across long distances. Be it at home, in industries or in offices, there is no space that can function efficiently without a continuous and stable supply of electricity. Transformers play a crucial role in the distribution and transfer of electrical signals between circuits. Hence, there is also a simultaneous need for machines that can mould, cut and design the various parts of a transformer. After that these various parts have to be engineered together to perform efficiently as a transformer.

There has been a rapid increase in the number of factories and industries around the world. This increase can be accredited to the increase in the demand of goods and services by the consumers. In order to produce these goods and services too, machines of varying capacities are required. These include cutting and laminating machines used in certain industries. Cangzhou Kenuo International Co., Ltd. is a company that is involved in the development and manufacture of a variety of cutting and laminating machines. The company is based in China.

Manufacturing journalist TR Cutler recommends rewarding transparent communication. Recent research showed that millennial workers last longer at jobs when they feel like there is open communication in the workplace. Not only do employers need to foster an environment in which honest feedback from team members is allowed, but they should reward employees for speaking up and sharing criticism. Millennial industrial workers need to be allowed to tell employers when their management style is problematic and need to see and hear that honesty is appreciated.
