OPEX

OPEX Corporation will be prominently featured at the MODEX conference on March 9-12, 2020, at the Georgia World Conference Center in Atlanta, GA.

Total sales still matter. But few other measures do as retail morphs. While many want to characterize e-commerce as a great destroyer, it’s actually a great creator, bringing retailers and customers even closer together.

The two are fundamentally different worlds that require quite different and diverse training, skills and spare parts inventory to be successful. There are no shortcuts to this transition.

Dematic today announces a partnership agreement with OPEX Corporation that enables Dematic to act as an integrator of Sure Sort, a small-item sorting system.

The Modern MRO team sat down with an automated storage and robotic sorting technician to give you an idea of what is like working in the field.

Amid a perfect storm of pressures like labor, cost and space, automated storage solutions are delivering standardized hardware and software suited to applications big and small.

Amid demands for innovation and customer service, public refrigerated warehouses are challenged to provide flexibility and efficiency for a fickle customer base.

While much of the action has been in mobile collaborative robotics, piece picking robots are finding their niche

Opex (Booth S3203) introduced Sure Sort, a highly scalable, configurable, and cost-effective small item sorting system.

A portfolio of automation technologies allows J&J Vision Care to deliver 99.99% fill and accuracy rates while speeding orders out the door.

Technicians are paramount to keeping equipment and a facility up and running. Here’s a look at how two industry leaders recruit, train and retain their “A” team. How to build a team of technician, Technician Training for Maintenance, Repair and Operations, Warehouse Maintenance

Materials handling solutions are only as good as the maintenance plans that keep them running. CMMS can play an important role.

A variety of equipment and installation options lets operations customize their handling to match inventory profiles, customer demands.

Remote monitoring services aren’t just for big, integrated installations anymore; these applications are emerging in subcomponents all around the warehouse/DC.

Conveyors, shuttles and robots were on display, but as with last year's Modex, software is where the action is in today’s materials handling industry.
