Pittsburgh, PA -- (SBWire) -- 01/10/2014 --European manufacturers and distributors will find an affordable automation solution to streamline processes while remaining efficient and productive with Seegrid, maker of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). Dori Kozak, Seegrid Marketing Manager discussed the past challenges and future opportunities for European manufacturers and distributors in the current blog found on the company’s website. Kozak noted, “Now in 2014 there is an opportunity to see an automation solution in your own facility in advance of a purchase that will address this challenge. Seegrid’s Try Before You Buy program is the introduction to what has been an answer in the U.S. and is now a solution available for Europe: Seegrid flexible, vision-guided AGVs, otherwise known as robotic industrial trucks.

According to Kozak, “What better way for European manufacturing and distribution facilities to get on the right track than by jumping on an offer such as Seegrid’s Try Before You Buy program. No, it is not too good to be true, because the program is already available to manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution facilities in the U.S. If you have not heard about Seegrid’s Try Before You Buy program, then 2014 is your time to see what you have been missing.”
