Material handling integration involves the process of designing, implementing, and maintaining efficient systems to move goods and materials within a facility, such as a distribution or fulfillment center. It helps organizations increase productivity, reduce errors, and minimize costs by streamlining processes and eliminating waste.

Material handling integrators typically follow a systematic approach to facility layout planning and implementation, starting with a detailed analysis of a facility’s needs and constraints, followed by the development of a concept design, engineering and prototyping, and finally permitting, installation, and training.

Material handling integrators use a range of technologies to optimize material handling systems, including mechanical storage, conveyor systems, sortation systems, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), robotics, and warehouse execution systems (WES).

Material handling integrators work closely with clients to ensure that their systems comply with all relevant safety regulations and standards, such as OSHA and ANSI guidelines. They may also conduct safety audits and training programs to ensure that all employees are aware of proper procedures. All Intralog systems are compliant with local municipalities.

Working with a material handling integrator can help organizations dramatically improve efficiency, reduce errors, and minimize costs. Material handling integrators have the expertise to design and implement customized solutions that meet a facility’s specific needs, while ensuring compliance with safety regulations and maximizing return on investment.
