Podcasts about pallets

Welcome back to another episode of Warehouse and Operations as a Career. I'm Marty, and today I want to talk about something a listener asked a few weeks ago. How does one choose a career, and more specifically, how do they end up in the light industrial, warehousing, and transportation fields.  One of the things I've learned over the decades is that very few people wake up at 18 years old and say, I'm going to be a forklift operator, or I'm going to build a career in a distribution center.  In my opinion most careers aren't chosen, they're found. They're shaped by our experiences, opportunities, influences, and sometimes just plain necessity.  But once people get here, once they get that first real taste of what this work is like, the stability, the opportunity, the teamwork, a lot of them stay. And that's what I'd like to talk about today.  Let's start with a simple truth: most people don't choose a career the way a high school guidance counselor might describe it. It's not a straight line.   It's often a mix of exposure, timing, skill, personality, and need.  Let me try and make that make sense. Many of us choose careers based on what we've seen growing up. If your parents, uncles, or neighbors worked in a warehouse or drove trucks, that's what you were exposed to. If your first job was unloading trucks at a retail store or working seasonal shifts for a local DC, that experience sticks with you. My father was president of a regional catalogue distribution center. From a young age I was exposed to the warehouse, all the inbound and outbound chaos and seeing all the equipment in action. I was in DECA in high school, my junior and senior years I went to school half a day and then off to work after that. Distributive Education Clubs of America was an eye opener for me and helped point me towards a work ethic I still hold today. Anyway, I digress a bit there. What was I talking about. Ok, I don't know where I was going, I think I wanted to mention my first jobs we're in a warehouse because I had an in to those distribution centers! All that's a story for another episode.    I think a lot of young people today enter this industry because a friend says, Hey, my place is hiring, or they hear that a local warehouse pays a few dollars more per hour than their retail job. That's what I mean by exposure.  You can't choose what you don't know exists.  Now, in our world, once someone takes that first general labor position or that first shift at loading trailers, something happens. They either realize it's not for them, or they say, You know what, I think I like this.  And that's often the moment their career begins, sometimes without them even realizing it.   Another major factor I mentioned earlier is need. Jobs are often chosen because someone needs a paycheck this week, not a degree three years from now. And that's one of the biggest advantages of the light industrial and warehousing world, it is accessible.  You don't need an ivy league education. You don't need months of training. A good staffing agency or warehouse can hire you, orient you, and get you earning a paycheck quickly in a week.  For someone supporting a family, or someone just starting out and needing to get on their feet, that's huge. A lot of careers begin because the industry said, we'll give you a chance right now.   People also lean into what they're naturally good at. Some people are hands-on workers. Some learn best by doing. Some have great attention to detail. Others thrive in louder, busier environments.  Warehousing fits a wide range of capabilities. If you like movement, there's selecting, loading, unloading. If you like operating equipment, there's forklift, rider pallet jacks, and PIT operation. If you're detail-oriented, there's inventory control and quality assurance. If you're a natural leader, there's a path from lead to supervisor to manager.  Many people choose this industry simply because they discover, sometimes accidentally  that the work fits who they are.  We sometimes forget that personality drives career choice as well. Some individuals do not want to sit at a desk. They don't want to be in customer service all day. They want to move, think, act, sweat, accomplish, and see their results.  Warehousing and transportation offer that. Every shift has a measurable outcome. Pallets moved. Trailers loaded. Orders filled. Goals hit or exceeded. For the right personality, that environment feels rewarding, even energizing.   And this might be the most important factor of all. A single person can completely influence someone's career path. Our mentors, even unknown mentors, have a lot more influence on us than we may realize. Maybe it was a supervisor who said, you'd be great on a forklift, let's get you trained. Maybe it was a lead who showed you how to wrap a pallet right and said, you're picking this up fast. Maybe it was a trainer who spent extra time showing you a safer way to work and said, I see potential in you, you'll be able to take my place one day. That's 3 true examples I experienced.  Those moments matter. They turn jobs into careers. They help people believe in themselves, sometimes for the first time.   And then let's be honest, sometimes people end up in a job simply because it was the easiest open door. They applied. They got hired. They started. And they stayed. And there's nothing wrong with that. Many long, successful careers begin by chance. But what matters is what happens after that first step.  So now, let's talk about why so many workers who enter this field end up staying and building entire careers here. There are a lot of reasons. Not everyone is meant for college. And not everyone wants it. Warehousing levels the playing field. You can start with a high school diploma, a GED, or just the willingness to learn. You don't need prior experience. You don't need certifications. You don't need years of training. If you show up consistently and work safely, the industry will teach you everything else. That opens doors for thousands of workers who want a real career but don't have access to college or technical schools or the time those commitments take to start earning.    One of the biggest advantages of our field is that advancement is based on performance, not the politics. A general laborer who works hard, shows up every day, and follows safety rules and procedures can move from position to position quickly. I see it all the time. General labor to Forklift operator, Forklift operator to Lead, Lead to Supervisor, Supervisor to Manager, and Manager to Operations leadership like Director or Vice president.   If you want to climb the ladder, the ladder is there, and it's real. I've seen people go from sweeping floors to running departments. I've even seen people go on to run entire facilities.  That's the beauty of this career path, you can grow as fast as your attitude and effort will carry you.  People sometimes think warehousing is just moving boxes. But as we've learned this last couple of quarters, this industry is incredibly diverse. There are roles in Equipment operation, Inventory control, Quality assurance, I should have made some notes here, what else, oh, Replenishment, Receiving, Shipping, Dispatch, Transportation, building Maintenance, and two of my favorites Safety, Training, many different Management positions, and even HR and recruiting.  The variety gives us workers options. We can grow sideways, upward, or into completely new areas, all within the same building. What other industry can give us all that!    And many entry-level associates discover quickly that general labor in a warehouse pays several dollars more per hour than retail or food service. Then they see the overtime opportunities. The shift premiums. And the potential bonuses. Suddenly, they're not just earning a paycheck, they're earning a living. I think this is one of the top reasons people stay. Warehousing and transportation reward productivity and effort. And that motivates workers to commit to the industry long-term. One of my opinions for free!   Some people need to feel accomplished. They want to look back at the end of the shift and say, everything is all wrapped up.  Warehousing gives them that. You see progress. You see results. You see the work you put in. You don't have to wonder if you made an impact, you can see it in the cases picked, pallets stacked, trailers loaded, and shift goals achieved. That sense of accomplishment always kept me coming back for the next shift.  And It's a Stable, Growing Industry Let's face it, the supply chain isn't going anywhere. Even during recessions, warehouses keep running. Even during pandemics, trucks keep moving. People always need, Food, home Products, Medications, and Supplies. And as e-commerce continues to grow, so does the demand for distribution centers, fulfillment centers, cross-docks, last-mile delivery, and transportation. Workers like stability. They like knowing their job will still be here tomorrow. Warehousing and the supply chain offers that.  And this industry teaches skills we can take anywhere, equipment operation, Safety practices, systems and RF scanners, Inventory processes, Quality checks, Time management, the importance of accuracy and Leadership and communication. These aren't just job skills, there our they're career skills. And once you have them, you're employable in almost any warehouse or distribution environment across the country.  Another thing I've always loved about the industry is how Warehouses are often 24/7 operations. That means people can choose shifts that work best for them and the family, mornings, afternoons, nights, weekends, or rotating even schedules. For young parents, students, or workers with second jobs, that flexibility can be a major advantage.  I feel, when you look at the big picture, people choose warehousing, light industrial, and transportation careers because they see opportunity. These industries offer that chance to start immediately, a chance to earn a good wage, the opportunity to grow fast and to learn valuable skills that can support our family and to build a long-term, stable career.  And the most important part? They provide it to anyone willing to work, show up, stay safe, and take pride in what they do. So, if you're new to this industry or you're just getting started, or if you're trying to find your path, know this. You don't have to have all the answers today. You don't need to have your life all figured out. You just need to start. Build skills. Learn. Ask questions. Show up. Stay safe. Take pride in your work.    As you know I could talk about operations all day, so I'll move on and say thanks for joining me today, and thanks for being part of an industry that keeps America running. Until next week, stay safe, stay focused, and keep building your career one shift at a time!

SPECIAL INBOUND LOGISTICS VIDEO PODCAST SERIES: See the full video here: https://www.inboundlogistics.com/video-podcasts/ Jonathan Parks of iGPS discusses the evolution of pallets from basic commodities to essential supply chain intelligence tools. iGPS utilizes durable, lightweight, and recyclable plastic pallets that offer significant advantages over traditional wood, including enhanced sustainability, lower shipping weight, and increased vendor compliance. The core innovation lies in embedding RFID trackers and cellular technology within the pallets, transforming them into "smart assets" which provides critical track and trace visibility, integrates with automated material handling systems (ASRS), and replaces manual scanning, leading to near 100% inventory accuracy for customers. Furthermore, iGPS leverages AI in robotic inspection systems to ensure consistent, high-quality standards. Ultimately, this approach reduces total costs by minimizing damages, lowering freight expense, and eliminating costly chargebacks. DO YOU WANT TO RESPOND TO THIS EPISODE?

Modern robotic picking is moving beyond neat rows and perfect lighting conditions. In this Automate 2025 conversation, Vlad and Dave sit down with Kevin Wu from Siemens to explore how Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro is tackling the messy reality of warehouses and factories. They discuss how the new edge architecture with the Simatic IPC BX 59 A and an NVIDIA GPU lifts pick rates to well over one thousand picks per hour, why multiple suction patterns matter for stability on large or flexible items, how camera agnostic support opens the door to new vision hardware, and why transparent objects are no longer a limitation in many applications.This episode also dives into digital thread and digital twin workflows using Siemens Process Simulate. These tools allow teams to test new products and layouts virtually before any hardware changes are made, helping reduce commissioning risk and shorten the path to production. The discussion highlights an on-booth demonstration that combines a robot with a secondary camera and a vision language model to identify products and read packaging details such as expiration dates. It is a clear example of how multimodal AI can complement traditional industrial vision systems.A major theme throughout this conversation is resilience. In real operations, products are rarely placed perfectly. Pallets shift, orientations vary, and lighting changes throughout the day. Traditional rules-based vision systems often struggle when small variances accumulate. Kevin explains how model-free 3D picking localizes unknown objects in clutter, selects stable suction patterns based on measured dimensions, and keeps production moving without forcing operators to maintain perfect alignment.For manufacturers in consumer packaged goods and medical devices, this is a meaningful advancement. It enables greater product variety and frequent SKU changes while maintaining engineering control. The difference is that the picking logic adapts to what the system sees rather than expecting the environment to remain static.We also talk about practical evaluation and proof of concept. Siemens runs application testing at its Berkeley, California lab where customers can send sample parts for quick feasibility checks. A short video of their parts being picked can provide the confidence needed to move forward with a pilot project while minimizing cost and risk. For quality inspection and defect detection, Siemens also offers an Inspector station capable of learning from as few as twenty samples to identify defects in real time.The discussion closes by looking at the future of digital manufacturing. Digital thread tools make it possible to simulate robots from multiple brands, test new configurations, and evaluate throughput virtually. Combined with edge AI and NVIDIA vision language technology, this creates faster experimentation cycles, improved reliability, and measurable gains in uptime and throughput.Kevin's key message is clear. Manufacturers do not need to replace existing automation to explore the benefits of AI. Start with one process, validate performance, and build from there.Timestamps 00:00 Welcome and why real-world picking matters 00:40 Introduction to Pick AI Pro and new throughput capabilities 01:30 Multi suction patterns for stable handling of large items 02:20 Camera agnostic approach and transparent object handling 03:30 Selecting components for high-temperature environments 04:15 Use cases in consumer packaged goods and medical applications 06:45 Digital twin and digital thread with Siemens Process Simulate 08:30 Feasibility testing and customer demos at the Siemens lab 10:30 Vision language model for product identification and labeling 12:10 Evaluating with real parts and rapid testing cycles 14:20 Siemens Inspector for defect detection and visual inspection 15:40 Key takeaways and future outlookReferences and Resources Mentioned Siemens Simatic Robot Pick AI Overview https://www.siemens.com/global/en/products/automation/topic-areas/tia/future-topics/simatic-robotics-ai.htmlSiemens Press Release on Simatic Robot Pick AI Pro https://press.siemens.com/global/en/pressrelease/siemens-presents-future-intralogistics-simatic-robot-pick-ai-pro-enables-machineSiemens Simatic IPC BX 59 A Industrial Edge Device with NVIDIA GPU https://www.automationworld.com/products/data/product/55287446/siemens-ag-siemens-simatic-ipc-bx-59a-industrial-edge-deviceSiemens IPC BX 59 A Operating Instructions https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/attachments/109972660/ipcbx56a_and_ipcbx59a_operating_instructions_enUS_en-US.pdfUniversal Robots Example with Simatic Robot Pick AI https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/109822788/simatic-robot-pick-ai-with-universal-robots-ur5Zivid Transparent Object Imaging Information https://www.zivid.com/zivid-omni-engine-transparency https://blog.zivid.com/zivid-omni-engineSiemens Digital Thread Overview and Tecnomatix Process Simulate https://www.sw.siemens.com/en-US/digital-thread/ https://plm.sw.siemens.com/en-US/tecnomatix/NVIDIA Vision Language Model Resources https://docs.nvidia.com/nim/vision-language-models/latest/introduction.html https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/vision-language-model-prompt-engineering-guide-for-image-and-video-understanding/Hosts Vlad Romanov is an electrical engineer and manufacturing consultant who leads Joltek and co-hosts the Manufacturing Hub Podcast.

In this episode of the Valley Today, host Janet Michael welcomes back Andrea Cosans, Executive Director for Winchester CCAP to discuss various topics related to the services offered by CCAP. Andrea shared that CCAP provides more than just a food pantry; they offer a range of services including small financial grants and clothing. Last year, they supported 3,200 families through their food pantry, provided financial assistance to 1,200 households, and helped 1,600 individuals through their clothing house. The conversation transitioned to the recent gala, which featured a successful fashion show where volunteers and business owners modeled clothing from the clothing house, raising over $30,000. Andrea appreciated all the volunteers and sponsors, highlighting contributions from local community members and organizations. They discussed several collaborative initiatives, including the provision of prom dresses through the organization Gowns for His Glory, and the support from entities like Crescent City Charities and the Adams Company. Additionally, Janet and Andrea highlighted the role of the United Way in fostering collaboration among nonprofits to better serve the community. Andrea elaborated on the food distribution processes at CCAP, noting how they collaborate with various local food pantries to ensure a diverse and sufficient food supply. This year, they face challenges due to the holiday schedule but are committed to finding solutions. They also mentioned the importance of fresh produce, often sourced from local store donations. Janet brought up the importance of culturally appropriate food, particularly for the Afghan refugees and other diverse populations they serve. Andrea cited the partnerships they have established to meet these needs. The Thanksgiving giveaway was a major focus, with Andrea explaining the logistics involved and the broad reach of their food distribution, ensuring hundreds of local families have a proper holiday meal. They also look forward to the Christmas giveaway, intending to provide both food and toys in collaboration with Bright Futures and other partners. A significant portion of their operations is volunteer-driven, with Andrea expressing gratitude for their 200 volunteers. She emphasized the value of volunteers from all walks of life, including those fulfilling community service requirements. Janet and Andrea both spoke about how vital these volunteers are to their mission. They also discussed the ongoing need for volunteers with specialized skills to help further CCAP's mission. Tune in on Friday for more of the conversation with Andrea about the types of food most needed at area food pantries and why.

In the newest episode of the Stay Tranquilo Podcast, powered by Stay Tranquilo Network, we're joined by Christian Lesteiro of Tropical Pallets, a multi-million dollar pallet company for consumer goods.

Our guest on this week's episode is Dennis Moon, COO of Roadie, a crowd-sourcing delivery company. Halloween is just a few days away. It has grown in popularity over the years to now be among America's favorite holidays - right up there with Christmas and Thanksgiving. Making sure that the deliveries of all of the costumes, decorations, and treats get to their destinations on time is a big task. Our guest shares some insights into how companies are delivering the goods for Halloween.It certainly has been an interesting year in logistics. Many natural disasters and man-made problems have caused supply chain disruptions on a global scale. As we begin to wind down 2024, it leaves us to ponder what is in store for 2025? Will we see more of the same or will technology help to create a better environment for logistics companies? We look at some predictions for supply chain technology trends that will drive the market forward in the coming year.As robots continue to make inroads into our distribution centers, there is one area that is just now getting some love from the robots. That area is bulk handling - specifically handling heavy items moved and stored on pallets. Bulk handling is getting this new attention from robotics companies, as they see this as an area where automation can help deal with the labor challenges of lifting and moving heavy loads.Supply Chain Xchange  also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals. A series of ten episodes is now available on the "State of Logistics." The episodes provide in-depth looks into the current states of key transportation modes, such as trucking, rail, air, and ocean. It also looks at inventory management, 3PLs and more.  All ten episodes are available to stream now. Go to your favorite podcast platform to subscribe and to listen to past and future episodes.

It's a jam-packed episode of Lean Built as Jay and Andrew kick things off with a head-to-head: spindles versus pallet pools. Which one packs the bigger profit punch? From there, they steer back into the world of IMTS, and especially how bringing your team and employing them strategically can yield big results. But that's not all. They tackle machine aesthetics—does beauty equal beast in manufacturing? They also dissect the double-edged sword of automation, and the art of slashing unnecessary steps to streamline your operations like a pro. All that and plenty more. Thanks as always for joining us on our Lean Built journey.

Steve Gruber discusses news and headlines

Introduction Hosts: MrX Dave Morriss We recorded this on Saturday February 25th 2024. Our favourite pub for lunch, The Steading, seemed to have closed since we were last there. Research into what was going on led to the information that the company owning this and several other pubs in the area was selling them all. We decided to try another place in the Pentland Hills area, and went to the Brasserie at Swanston Farm for lunch, which was pretty good. After lunch we as usual adjourned to Dave's Citroen car (Studio C) in the car park, and recorded a chat. Topics discussed YouTube channel recommendations (Dave) A channel about astronomy and science. Anton goes into a fair amount of depth about subjects in the news relating to these themes: Anton Petrov Recent episode: Study Explains Dark Energy and Inflation as Parallel Universes Colliding A channel which is all about making things out of junk. No speech, and only a small amount of music as the build comes together: Epic UpCycling Just watched this one, and am in awe! A Treasure Chest of Secret Drawers made from Pallets and Scrap Terrible weather with highs winds and / or lashing rain (MrX) Seems to be never ending. Have noticed quite a few fences down Large tree down blocking entrance to local park Both parents houses sustained damage, fences and roof tiles. So far we have been lucky with no damage My mother was injured while going out to rescue her outside bucket Possibly related, it seems car insurance prices are increasing (MrX) I have seen some link this to the high repair cost for modern cars because they have lots of high tech included. In particular the sensors placed in bumpers. Some have speculated this to be because the high repair cost of EV's. I came across this YouTube video that shows that global insurance claims have been historically large in recent years due to natural disasters. While the video concentrates on properties I'm sure it also will be affecting car insurance. I believe this likely to be having the most prominent factor for insurance increases. Insurers ABANDONING high climate risk properties I got a Steam Deck for Christmas! (Dave) I borrowed my son's Nintendo Switch in November 2023 to see if I could see the screen and play games on it. I could, but haven't played games since the 1980's so I'm terrible at it! I told them I might buy myself a Steam Deck in 2024, but wasn't sure. Much to my surprise my family jointly bought me a Steam Deck for Christmas! I am pretty bad at using it, but I'm practising I'm learning Stardew Valley at first, but I'd quite like to try Kerbal Space Programme at some point. Cinema visits / movies: (MrX) Hunger Games pre sequel Was not rated very highly but me and Mrs X actually really enjoyed it. Oppenheimer Knowing something of the background story was advantageous Barbie Watched on DVD! Ticks (Dave) We spoke about this subject last time we met. Later, I was reminded of a disease called alpha-gal syndrome, first detected in the USA, which can follow a tick bite. It is caused by the injection of a carbohydrate by the tick, which it has obtained by feeding on another mammal. The carbohydrate is called Galactose-α-1,3-galactose, also known as alpha-gal. This causes a strong immune reaction because it's a foreign substance which isn't found in humans. The result is an allergy to red meat, which contains alpha-gal! This syndrome has been found in the USA and Australia and several other places, but now seems to be coming to Europe and has been seen in the UK. Dog-friendly places (MrX) Waterstones book store is dog friendly. Possibly only relevant to people living in Britain? They have a cafe upstairs which accepts dogs. The pub we used to meet in, The Steading, was dog friendly as well. The latest venue does not seem to be, but is a restaurant, not a pub. Raspberry Pi stuff (both) Dave pre-ordered a RPi 5 in November 2023 and it arrived in December. He decided to get a Pimoroni NVMe Base to take an SSD, and ordered that once it was available on pre-order. Now the RPi 5 is equipped with a 500GB SSD attached underneath, running off the PCIe interface. Dave is working at setting up two RPi 4B systems, and a RPi 3A to run various services in his house. Currently setting up Pi-hole. The RPi 5 will be added to this combination in due course. MrX bought a RPi 4B in 2023 (as they became more available) which he initially intended setting up with XBMC. He had problems playing certain video resolutions with the latest version of LibreELEC running XBMC. He has now decided to use it to replace an ageing server located upstairs. Dave's 'what_pi' script that tells you about your Pi's settings doesn't work on Raspberry Pi OS since this OS stores the information it needs quite differently from Raspbian. Visit to Blackpool (MrX) Met up with family for the long weekend in Blackpool. It was bitterly cold and very windy, but we had a good time. While there we were lucky to get a trip on a 100 year old tram. The tram had very unique seats that allowed you to flip the back over, so they are pointed in either direction, depending on the direction of travel. I thought this was very clever. Haven't seen this on modern buses or trams, perhaps because they don't meet modern safety regulations. Edinburgh Trams (MrX) Following Dave's recommendation from our last show. Me, Mrs X and our 4 legged companion took the tram all the way from Ingliston park and ride to Newhaven. Our four legged companion loved the trams. Seems there has been so much development. Saw lots of new things along the way. Lots of other interesting places and walks for future trips. Can't believe it's taken us so long to appreciate the tram. We have used the train in the past but it's a bit limited by the places it goes though it is very convenient from our location. Think we may be using the tram a bit more in future. HPR changes (Dave) Ken has enhanced some aspects of the calendar page: Reserved show overview - a list of what's in the reserve queue with date, host and show title (suggestion from Archer72). Statistics - a call interface that returns JSON data containing most of the old statistics plus a few more (requested by MrX). These changes were also mentioned in the last Community News TLDR (MrX) Mentioned in one of Klaatu's recent shows From the slang expression TL;DR or tl;dr, short for "too long; didn't read" (see Wikipedia page) Quote: The tldr pages are a community effort to simplify the beloved man pages with practical examples. Details: Website: https://tldr.sh GitHub: https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr Mastodon: https://fosstodon.org/@tldr_pages (@tldr_pages@fosstodon.org) Matrix: https://matrix.to/#/#tldr-pages:matrix.org Many clients available: see https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/wiki/tldr-pages-clients Bash help command (Dave) There is a help command in Bash which is useful for getting information about Bash built-in commands. For example 'help read' will give you a one-page summary of this command which saves a lot of searching through the Bash man page. The example mentioned in the audio 'help test' also works, but since it's a stand-alone command the result is quite similar to typing 'man test'. There are very few (if any) examples though, and that's where tldr will be better!

Axe body spray is so back, but not by our own doing. We discuss the new steroid Olympics, driving with auto pilot in a Tesla, and starting a new job. Also, if Ethan Finberg is reading this, we'd highly advise listening this week. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/barn-burner-podcast/message

En nuestra sección semanal "A la Cama con datos", nuestro analista demoscópico y director de investigación de Opinión Pública en Ipsos España, Paco Camas, nos desglosa, de forma temática y amena, los datos más relevantes de la cultura política y económica actual. La marea de pellets de plástico que está llegando desde mediados de diciembre a las costas gallegas, se produce a las puertas de las próximas elecciones al Parlamento de Galicia del 18 de febrero. Estas “bolitas” de plástico se están declinando electoralmente en boletas, porque la comunicación y acción del Gobierno junto con las críticas de la oposición han convertido este desastre de contaminación marítima en un tema claro de campaña.Escuchar audio

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: the micro-fulfillment cambrian explosion, published by bhauth on December 4, 2023 on LessWrong. Warehouse automation has been very successful. Here's a typical modern system. As you can see, a tall narrow robot rides on a single rail at the top and bottom. The linked example is up to 42m tall. Items are stored on top of pallets, and the robot has a telescoping fork, which might be able to handle 2-deep pallets to improve space efficiency. Stores are much less automated than warehouses. When you go to a Walmart or Aldi or Ikea, they don't usually have robots in the back - let alone smaller stores. There are now many companies selling automation systems for smaller items and smaller spaces. That's called micro-fulfillment, hereafter "MF". There are many different configurations being developed and marketed, which indicates that people haven't yet figured out the best approach. Here are some approaches I'm aware of. Kiva/Amazon Robots lift an entire rack from below, by driving under it then spinning while turning a ball screw lifter. The rack is carried to a human picker who typically transfers several items. This system was developed by Kiva, which was bought by Amazon and renamed; it now has several clones. Here's a teardown from 2016. That Kiva design has some problems: That large ball screw assembly is somewhat expensive for a component. The robots carrying shelving are top-heavy so they can't accelerate quickly. The height of shelving is limited by what workers can reach, which limits storage density. Workers must reach for items that are high up or close to the floor many times a day. A moderate amount of this isn't a big problem, but workers at Amazon facilities need to do that so often that it increases injury rates. Geek+ RoboShuttle Elevator robots have a rack-and-pinion driven elevator that lifts a rotating platform. The platform has a grabber that reaches around the sides of totes and slides them onto the elevator. The elevator can them push totes onto fixed storage slots, so it can grab multiple totes in 1 trip. Carrier robots have a set of powered rollers at a fixed height. Totes can be transferred between them and the elevator robots. AutoStore Robots ride on rails on top of a storage cube. They have 2 sets of wheels that can be switched between. Each robot has an elevator system that can lift/lower totes from above. Deep items are dug out, lifting and transferring totes above them until they're available. Alert Innovation Robots have multiple sets of wheels, letting them drive on a floor, drive on rails, and move vertically on rails. "Battery-free" probably means they use supercapacitors. Zikoo Per-level flat robots lift pallets from below and move them horizontally. They have 2 sets of wheels that can be switched between. Vertically telescoping forklifts lift pallets from the edge of levels. Pallets are carried to/from there by the flat robots. Brightpick Autopicker Robots carry 2 totes, on a single platform lifted by a belt drive, with a robotic arm between them to transfer items. The 2 tote slots on the platform have rollers, and a rolling grabber with vacuum grippers to move the totes on and off. Brightpick Dispatcher Like the Brightpick Autopicker, but with 1 tote and no robotic arm. EXOTEC Robots can drive on the floor and grab rails to move vertically. After climbing to the right height, they use a telescoping fork to transfer a tote. Dematic Multishuttle Elevators lift totes onto a load/unload area with rollers. Per-level shuttle robots carry totes horizontally. They ride on rails using a single set of wheels, and have telescoping arms that grab totes from the sides or push them. So, how has MF been going? My understanding is, most retailers have been taking a hesitant approach. They've mostly been waiting for someone else to show economic succes...

I swear by Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic (which wasn't mentioned) More options still over at Wire Cutter Brian #2: appeal - a CLI framework from Larry Hastings “Give your program APPEAL!” Appeal is a command-line argument processing library for Python, like argparse, optparse, getopt, docopt, Typer, and click. But Appeal takes a refreshing new approach. Hello World example: import appeal app = appeal.Appeal() @app.command() def hello(name): print(f"Hello, {name}!") app.main() looks fun, no idea how to test with it “yet”. But I plan on looking into that. Michael #3: Graphinate: Data to Graphs via Eran Rivlis Graphinate is a python library that aims to simplify the generation of Graph Data Structures from Data Sources. Write a function to definite the edges as a generator, call materialize Based on NetworkX See the github page for visual examples Brian #4: A Disorganized List of Maintainer Tasks David Lord Plus, David Lord, lead maintainer of Flask, Jinja, Click, … on Pallets, also PSF Fellow, has a blog. Neat. TLDR; Next time you want to ask "When's the next release?", instead look at the project and see where you can start getting involved. The more help maintainers have, the more they can get done. Long list of stuff David thinks about when maintaining a project.

Pallet flipping is a popular "buy low, sell high" side hustle. When you return a product to Costco, Amazon, or Walmart, it doesn't always go back to the shelves. In most cases, that product ends up at a local liquidator that resells it to side hustlers, who then flip it for profit. Jamie McAuley has been doing just that for the past few years, and he's earned over $25k in profit in the process. Jamie is one half of the dynamic duo behind the Jamie and Sarah YouTube channel, where they cover all things return pallets, furniture flipping, and more. Tune in to this Side Hustle Show interview to learn: The ins and outs of the pallet flipping game how to avoid scams Jamie's tips on how to make pallet flipping worthwhile for you Full Show Notes: Pallet Flipping: How We Made $25k Flipping Liquidation Pallets Listener Bonus: The Best Items to Flip for a Profit
