3 weeks to deploy? ✅ Setting up our #driverlesstechnology with the #EZTow autonomous tow tractor in a factory environment like here at the Bosch facility in Blaj, Romania is a streamlined process that TractEasy can deliver from preparation to 24/7 operation in just three weeks. 🕗 Here’s how they do it: Before deployment begins, the EZTow is prepared by our engineering team to ensure it is configured for the site-specific environment and requirements. Next, we conduct a site assessment—surveying the factory layout, identifying challenges, and defining optimal routes to ensure smooth autonomous operations. 📝 Once the site is ready, the EZTow is delivered, and we begin deployment. This involves creating a virtual map of the site from scratch, accurately mapping buildings and structures, defining main and EZTow-specific routes, and adding stations for loading, unloading, and charging. Behaviors at intersections and pedestrian crossings are also programmed to prioritize safety and efficiency. ⚡ After deployment, we hand over the fully operational EZTow system, seamlessly integrated into the factory's logistics workflows for continuous, round-the-clock operations. TractEasy continues to provide support and maintenance to ensure peak performance, minimize downtime, and maximize efficiency. 🛠️ From vehicle preparation to full-scale operations in three weeks, EZTow enhances factory logistics, ensuring more productive and efficient workflows. 🚀

Half-cut pork belly is sliced into 2mm-thick slices by a slicer, neatly arranged, and then the edges are folded by a robot as it is served on a tray. This robot and slicer can also do a variety of other slicing and serving functions. #nci #FreshMeatSlicer #robot #automation

LinkedIn peeps, I sometimes have a problem with skimming rather than reading, the latest example in last week's FleetOwner story linked below . Martin Brower and Kodiak announced an expanded partnership to use Kodiak ADAS-equipped trucks to move refrigerated movements from DFW to Oklahoma City (think a trailer full of frozen french fry sacks). Okay, I thought, another AV trucking developer makes another commercial relationship moving stuff in and out of Texas. This week, I looked more closely at the press releases and other press accounts and noted that the phrase "autonomous operation" was used more than "safety driver." Kodiak's press release mentioned "Since the companies began working together in July 2022, Kodiak has completed over 600 autonomous deliveries for Martin Brower" (press release here https://lnkd.in/gTf6kVQA). "Autonomous deliveries?" I thought--that would be big news, right? Then I read the second sentence in Josh Fisher's lede graph again: "Expanding on a pilot program that began in 2022, the companies announced the partnership on Feb. 29 as Kodiak scales up its self-driving fleet offerings in advance of plans to remove safety operators from the cab later this year." There it is: "safety operator." So both Kodiak and Aurora are still in the glidepath to operate autonomously later this year, not today. Who knows what else I miss when I skim through my mystery novels, but when it comes to my transportation newsletters, I should read more carefully. #freight #autonomousvehicles #trucking #transportationtechnology

You can buy any tractor and own it. And what about this? But can you buy and own a tractor driver? Of course not! At most, you can buy his time, but always to a limited extent. Well, that's life. 🤷♂️ However, when buying #ROBOTTI, you need no tractor driver. And you can do all the maintenance yourself. In fact, you are only a supervisor then. What's more, you can supervise and manage the work of several robots in the same time as a single person. That’s cool! 🤩 Remember: #ROBOTTI is not a tractor. It’s much more.☝️ #ROBOTTI is #ROBOTTI 💪 #AGROINTELLI
