When it comes to warehouse automation, taking a measured, tested approach is often better than just doing everything at once, and hoping for the best. Check out our guide on Warehouse Automation here:

Implementing warehouse automation can seem overwhelming, especially with the promise of a more efficient workplace. Our guide offers a few steps to make the process easier.

🛠️ Conveyor Belt Maintenance: The Key to Operational Excellence Consistent maintenance routines ensure longer equipment life, fewer unexpected shutdowns, and improved plant productivity. Implementing a structured checklist — from daily inspections to quarterly diagnostics — helps identify early warning signs and optimize uptime. Invest in maintenance today to prevent downtime tomorrow. ⚙️ #IndustrialAutomation #ConveyorSystems #PreventiveMaintenance #ReliabilityEngineering #SmartManufacturing #NVGENAutomation

🔧 Horizontal Loading Automation – Air Source Docking Module Due to the growth of the business, the traditional production mode can not meet the production needs, and decided to upgrade the production line automation. After many exchanges and discussions, it was decided to adopt SET's overall solution to transform the production line. The original production of the customer relies on a large number of manpower, which needs to be repeatedly installed, the production efficiency is low, and the product stability is uncontrollable. Considering the needs of production conditions, SET design cites the LQNCZ-20-K zero positioner, the use of external air source docking device, to help enterprises greatly improve production efficiency and achieve automated production. #AutomationUpgrade #ZeroPositioning #CNCManufacturing #ProductionEfficiency #SETSolutions

The High-Cost Service Gap: https://hubs.ly/Q03TmcXD0 The news that supply chain delays and rising equipment prices are threatening the electricity grid is not just an infrastructure headline—it's a massive, quantifiable risk for every manufacturing service department. When a piece of mission-critical, high-value equipment fails today, a parts delay doesn't just mean waiting; it means catastrophic downtime. The stakes are too high to track warranty issues, field service requests, and spare parts on siloed spreadsheets. This manual approach guarantees missed SLAs and leaves zero audit trail for a Critical Event. You need to maximize the uptime of every asset you service. Issuetrak transforms your service department into a proactive risk mitigation unit: ➡️Automated Escalation: Ensure complex technical issues are routed instantly, cutting Time-to-Resolution (TTR). ➡️Integrated Asset Data: Tie every service ticket to specific serial numbers, warranty status, and parts availability. ➡️Data-Driven Decisions: Identify why assets are failing before the next supply chain shock hits. ⛔Stop letting global instability determine your service success. Control the factors you can. Is your service data connected?

Most manufacturers accept rework as a cost of doing business - until it eats 3 shifts per week and €800 per unit. A manufacturer of complex electromechanical systems was seeing a worrying trend: a sharp rise in defects after final control. Direct cause? 38% of the rework traced back to a single step - refrigerant filling. We followed the DMAIC method to turn the problem around: Define: Overfill and underfill issues caused off-spec weights. Measure: Rework reached 9%, costing €500-800 per unit, adding 3 extra shifts per week and wasting significant refrigerant amount ( hundreds of tons of CO2eq annually). Analyze: Calibration drift accounted for 72% of the variation. Improve: We shortened calibration intervals, standardized machine setup, and added environmental controls. Control: Introduced weight logging, SPC charts, calibration tracking - and layered in dashboards and automated alerts via Factory Cortex. The result: Rework due to filling dropped to under 0.1% - and it stays there. This is the power of DMAIC done right: Structure + Data + Visibility

OEE Formul OEE = Availability x Performance x Quality Let's understand each part 1.V Availability - Measures the percentage of scheduled time that the equipment is actually running. (Accounts for downtime losses like breakdowns or setup changeovers.) 2.V Performance – Measures whether the machine is running at its maximum designed speed. (Accounts for slow cycles or minor stoppages.) 3.V Quality - Measures how many good parts are produced without defects or rework. (Accounts for scrap or rejected parts.)

Struggling with labor shortages … space limits … safety incidents … throughput bottlenecks … inventory accuracy issues … or shrinking margins? It might be time to explore steel and metal handling and processing automation. At CareGo, we specialize in service center automation for master coil and finished-goods handling (slit coil, sheet, pipe, tube, and plate). Imagine a world where you have: • Autonomous, “people-less” crane & material-handling operations • High-density storage and retrieval optimized for space • Automated routing of materials to processing lines, and automated staging of finished goods for shipment • Real-time inventory accuracy (100%) • A genuinely “Zero-Harm” safety environment • And a direct path to increased throughput and profitability Our complimentary automation assessment reveals opportunities to: • Maximize storage density and free up space — in some cases we’ve freed up entire storage bays • Overcome labor constraints with autonomous operations • Improve throughput with automated material retrieval & routing • Eliminate inventory & shipping errors with real time accuracy • Boost profitability If you and your team are facing any of these challenges — let’s talk. Your next level of performance is closer than you think.
