Seegrid, maker of flexible automated guided vehicles (AGVs), announced the availability of their whitepaper entitled, “The Truth About Robots.” In the whitepaper, the company takes an in-depth examination determining the truth about robotics. Real world applications, pros and cons are carefully explored in this in-depth analysis.

The new whitepaper examines salient topics in the manufacturing industry such as scenario planning as robots shift into the job market, the role of manufacturing optimism, how robots actually create more jobs, as well as how robots reduce injuries in the stressed workforce, and how robotics solve the challenges of increasing demands on the workforce.”
Additionally, the whitepaper addresses important topics including the reduction of estimated cost of occupational injuries and illnesses therefore affecting the company's profitability worksheet, how manufacturing companies can eliminate waste and measurement with a Robotic Industrial Solutions, and the advantages of a Seegrid flexible robotic industrial truck versus a traditional AGV.
Robots are set up in hours, not weeks or months. AGVs require months, even years, of planning for implementation and installation. AGVs necessitate extensive IT integration, whereas RITs do not. Any capital equipment purchase boils down to the assumption of risk. The long-term, big-ticket price tag of automated guided vehicles is simply not worth the risk when functionality can be achieved with robotic industrial trucks without risk.
