About The Robotics Group
The Robotics Group (TRG) members are leading manufacturers, integrators, consultants, and component suppliers of robotic solutions designed specifically for warehousing and distribution applications.
Traditionally, industrial robots in material handling applications have been limited to palletizing/depalletizing, conveyor picking, or other highly repetitive tasks. Technology advancements are creating opportunities for robots and automated machinery in a wider variety of applications, including warehousing and distribution center activities.
TRG conducts education and outreach with the goal of fostering technology adoption in this rapidly changing industry sector.
