An interactive kiosk will showcase the companys material handling solutions and technologies, as well as a series of product demonstrations including robotics, conveyor and sortation, Mini-Load Shuttle and other AS/RS models. The new AS/RS Shuttle solutions are designed to optimize the use of floor space and ensure accurate inventory control. It can store and optimally buffer picked orders and then release them in sequence for efficient loading into route trucks or other direct-to-dock sequencing operations. "An interactive kiosk allows us to better engage with visitors, and is ideal for this type of environment", commented Kevin Ambrose, CEO of Wynright Corporation.
Other innovative solutions include Goods-To-Person/Robot; Put Wall Order Fulfilment configurations that are providing high productivity along with high accuracy for piece picking applications; Robotic Linear Palletizing, that offers a complete line of high-performance robotic and non-robotic automated palletizing solutions and; High Throughput Batch Picking which lasts longer, and requires less overall maintenance.
Experts from Daifuku will be conducting three educational seminars at the booth on 'The Convergence of Warehouse Execution Systems (WES) and Automation, 'Extend the Life of Your Aging Material Handling Assets, and 'Automated Sequencing Opportunities and Solutions. "Providing flexible solutions that meet our customers needs is what drives innovation at Wynright. As a leading material handling and logistics provider, we want to educate and share our knowledge with the industry. Consequently, these seminars are aimed at all levels of warehouse and managerial staff", concluded Ambrose.

Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
