Raw materials and finished products were carried by hand between warehouse and production stations: six RI Smart Logistics robots now handle these transfers autonomously, with every movement tracked.

- Raw materials were carried by hand to the production stations.
- Finished products were moved back to the warehouse manually as well.
- The process was labour-intensive, time-consuming and prone to errors.
- Material movements were hard to trace, which limited process improvement.
