Kardex to Present at TECHNO-FRONTIER 2026
Kardex Japan, a global partner of AutoStore, is set to participate in TECHNO-FRONTIER 2026, scheduled from July 15 to 17, 2026, at Tokyo Big Sight. This year's exhibition will primarily focus on their space-saving and adaptable AutoStore solution, "StarterGrid." This innovative package is designed to enhance storage efficiency and address labor shortages in the manufacturing and logistics sectors, making automation accessible for companies considering their first steps into the world of automated solutions.
Introducing StarterGrid
The StarterGrid is specifically developed to facilitate easy installation of automated warehousing systems. It offers a minimal configuration while ensuring flexibility for future expansions. This means it's an ideal fit for organizations looking to dip their toes into automation without overwhelming complexities. The goal of the StarterGrid is to demystify automation and make it a feasible option for more businesses.
In addition to showcasing StarterGrid, Kardex will host a seminar during the exhibition focused on practical improvements in the workplace. The seminar will highlight common inefficiencies in daily operations related to "search, walk, and wait," which often go unnoticed yet significantly impede productivity. Attendees will learn how to minimize these unproductive habits through the application of StarterGrid, along with several real-life examples of its successful implementation in various settings.
