Description

The loading dock is finally getting an upgrade.
For decades, it has been one of the biggest bottlenecks in logistics, slowing operations, increasing risk, and putting extra strain on warehouse teams. But what if the dock could become one of the fastest and safest parts of your operation?
In this episode, Ellen Wood talks with Mason Cole from Slip Robotics about how their five-minute trailer loading system is changing the way warehouses move goods. Mason explains how the technology makes work safer, empowers teams instead of replacing them, and creates a faster, more predictable flow across the entire supply chain.
In this episode:
  • Why dock automation has fallen behind other parts of the warehouse
  • How Slip Robotics improves speed, safety, and labor efficiency
  • What happens when the dock becomes a strategic advantage
