How Can Automating Container Handling Help Workforce Constraints in Manufacturing?

COVID-19 has hit the country hard in more ways than one. For manufacturers, working during these times while still staying safe is especially challenging. From fighting space constraints to understanding changing workforce needs with children learning from home, stressors on our team feel to be growing at every turn. 

Everything may feel different and challenging right now, but challenges can lead to solutions and innovations that can help your operation thrive in long run.

 

DID YOU KNOW? 

Container handling is often the cumbersome problem on many production lines, eating labor costs and challenging product output. Add in a mix of COVID-19 and sourcing and keeping people in these roles becomes even more challenging with workers who need to school students at home or care for family. 

When it comes to fighting COVID-19 on the manufacturing floor, Morrison’s approach to container handling can help you in two main ways: 

 1. FIGHT WORKFORCE LIMITATIONS 

For companies struggling to keep people on the manufacturing floor, Morrison is able to automate many of the most laborious processes that may be staffing pain points. And automating these processes can lead to even greater efficiencies in your productivity output. 

 2. FIGHT SPACE CONSTRAINTS

Keeping employees at a safe distance of 6 feet in the age of COVID-19 is another challenge, especially in already cramped packaging lines. Morrison offers an array of automation options that will allow you to move employees to safer areas and let the machinery take over specific operations. Inserting a Morrison custom timing screw drive assembly is often a low-cost solution that will break up workers that typically would have to stand together. 

Morrison has been working non-stop at full capacity to make sure we can continue to provide solutions to our customers, but more importantly, solutions that solve the problems keeping you up at night. Morrison’s array of equipment can help make your company run more smoothly by offering you a variety of container handling systems that fulfill your packaging needs custom to the application you need
