The Real Cost of a Part Sitting Still

July 28, 2026 11:00 AM

Most cycle time isn't work. It's parts waiting to move.

Most plants never measure it, but it’s there in every shift. An operator leaves the station to fetch material. A machine sits idle waiting on tending. A work cell stalls because the last part hasn’t shown up yet. It isn’t a labor problem or a machine problem. It’s a movement problem and it stays invisible until you add up the minutes.

This live webinar looks at mobile cobots: machines that don’t just carry parts between processes, but pick them up, handle them, and put them to work the moment they arrive.

What you’ll learn

  • Three real deployments, live: Transport, machine tending, and pick-and-place, running in actual production environments

  • Why “fixed infrastructure” is the wrong question: How these systems deploy inside the layout you already have, no rebuild required

  • The ROI math, explained: A model you can apply to your own floor and scale use case by use case

  • What happens after use case #1: How an open ecosystem turns a single deployment into a growing capability, instead of a one-off project

If material flow is the quiet bottleneck nobody’s tracking, this is 45 minutes worth blocking off to attend.
