Yale Lift Truck Technologies is introducing Yale Relay, an overarching platform encompassing all automated lift trucks the company will release going forward and an intuitive drag-and-drop portal that replaces the complex software coding requirements typically associated with automation.
The new portal enables easy set-up and on-the-fly changes without the need for custom programming, allowing warehouses to reduce their dependence on scarce warehouse labor without expensive software engineering resources. Attendees of the ProMat show in Chicago can get hands-on experience with the Yale Relayportal and automated tow tractors at booth #S647.
“This new solution represents a reboot of automated lift trucks, positioned to more efficiently meet demand for mobile automation by avoiding the labor and capital constraints of today’s market,” according to Kyle Smart, sales manager, emerging technology, Yale Lift Truck Technologies. “Not only does Yale Relay address challenges sourcing lift truck operators and software programmers, it completely changes the financial commitment necessary for end users to deploy automation. Rather than a major capital expense, warehouses can simply pay by the month through a rental agreement and avoid the major upfront costs of purchasing equipment.”
