Innovation is constantly transforming the logistics industry and providing opportunities to streamline and introduce greater efficiencies. Double roll cage robots are the latest technology that look set to transform the sector and create advantages for businesses in UK grocery. These autonomous mobile robots are capable of taking over the job of heavy load transport and order picking in warehouses and logistics operations. The robots have been designed specifically for the grocery sector – with the ability to continue to operate even on rough surfaces and at temperatures of -25° C to +40°C without degradation of battery life. As the robots are only 17cm high they are able to fit into much smaller spaces than many of the other robots that are already on the market, which gives them a great deal more versatility. The machines are capable of transporting loads of up to 1,000kg and take just 1.5 hours to achieve a full charge from 10% to 100%.

Over the past decade the German economy has experienced an impressive boom thanks to the impact of globalisation. However, the pandemic has caused many issues, especially because German businesses now rely on a complex international network of supply chains. That network was once the momentum for growth but, over the past year or so, has proved to be a serious vulnerability. As a result, more than half of German companies doing business abroad are now struggling with supply chains or logistics problems.

The logistics sector in Hong Kong is one of the most advanced in the world, something that has been illustrated this year as smart warehouse tech started to gain more ground. U-Freight Logistics, for example, which owns five facilities in Hong Kong, upgraded one of these to a fully smart warehouse. The motivation for this tech-driven step was in order to help minimise costs associated with picking and to increase the speed at which operations could move to keep up with the demand created by the pandemic. The upgrade to the facility includes the use of AGVs (automatic guided vehicles) as well as an Intelligent Racking System and associated operating software.

Disruption to the global supply chain and a worldwide shortage of containers have caused significant issues for the logistics industry in Hong Kong over the past year. Nevertheless, the local industry has remained focused on survival, and in the first nine months of 2021, the cumulative container throughput at the Hong Kong port edged up to 13.3 million TEUs (20-foot equivalent unit). In the same time period, throughput at Hong Kong airport grew by more than 13%. Both of these statistics show that despite the challenges triggered by the pandemic and surrounding events, those in logistics and supply chain jobs - and the broader industry - have a lot to get excited about as we look ahead to 2022.
