According to Warehouse & Logistics News, scientists have begun designing robots that can pick goods by themselves in warehouses. At the moment, robots are mainly used within the warehouse environment to fulfil orders and inventory management, and it is humans who do the order picking. In the near future, robots will be able to pick orders, therefore, increasing efficiency, accuracy and productivity. Bringing efficiency to order picking In recent times, warehouse automation has made tremendous progress, especially when it comes to robotics. More businesses begin to see the positives of incorporating robotics into their everyday warehouse and logistics operation as...

Today we are looking at what exactly are lead acid batteries and how can they fit into your industrial battery needs. We will be looking how they work and how you can look after them effectively.Many applications work more efficiently with lead acid batteries, and with the correct BMS (Battery Management System), your lead acid batteries will run effectively and efficiently for your business saving you time and money and allowing your batteries to maximise performance. What is a lead acid battery? Essentially, a lead acid battery is a rechargeable battery that uses both lead and sulphuric acid to work....

Battery maintenance should be carried out regularly, and an essential element of this is cleaning your lead acid batteries.

Will I need to clean my lead acid battery?  The average industrial setting for a lead acid battery is dust, grime and general dirtiness from the machinery used to the dusty concrete floors. Another issue with many lead acid batteries is that gas is given off during battery operation, which can...

We’re going to look at the three biggest mistakes you should avoid when you’re charging lead acid batteries and how can you prevent them. Forklift trucks are an integral part of any warehouse or distribution center, helping to move around large amounts of products. Warehouse forklifts are typically powered by an electric lead acid battery. Not only are battery powered forklifts trucks more environmentally friendly, they don’t give off fumes, such as carbon monoxide, that gas powered forklifts do. Using lead acid batteries for a motive power fleet gives several advantages for safety and reduces the impact on the environment....
