MHI Commends Raymond Papers

Two of The Raymond Corporation’s MODEX 2020 papers have been chosen by MHI as MODEX 2020 Top Education Seminars.

Raymond‘s “Optimize Before You Automate 2.0” and “Trucks, Energy, Solutions – The Winning Trifecta” seminars provided industry-leading intelligence on how material handling operations can leverage existing resources to achieve increased productivity.

Optimize Before You Automate 2.0 detailed the need for optimization before the implementation of new technologies, such as alternative energy, semi-autonomous and fully autonomous solutions, intralogistics solutions and other integrated solutions. The seminar explained how factors like productivity, cost advantage, workforce development and flexibility should all be considered when evaluating automation options.

The speakers leading this seminar were Jason Fiume, iWAREHOUSE professional services senior manager, Stacey (Patch) Barton, iWAREHOUSE professional services manager, and John Slavik, iWAREHOUSE national accounts sales manager.

MHI offers education, networking and solution sourcing for their members, their customers and the industry as a whole through programming and events. The association sponsors the ProMat and MODEX expos to showcase the products and services of its member companies and to educate manufacturing and supply chain professionals.

Trucks, Energy, Solutions – The Winning Trifecta discussed how misconceptions in the material handling industry can lead to missed opportunities for growth, compromising productivity and efficiency. This presentation focused on how prioritizing and educating yourself on trucks, energy and warehouse solutions will help when utilizing new technologies.
