Background of Handling Commencement In recent years, the logistics industry has seen a significant increase in the need for automation and labor saving, driven by factors such as responding to labor shortages, standardizing in-warehouse operations, improving storage efficiency, enhancing shipping accuracy, and increasing safety.
