with robotics, manufacturers have an opportunity to boost workplace morale

For several years, at a commercial site in northern Indianapolis Napoli, as one worker said, there was a scene of \"beheaded chickens running around.
No, this is not 800 of the state of hussier-
There are poultry farms, but plastic farms.
Component manufacturing plant in norbersville, Indiana.
The craziest crumbling-
Approximately, symbolically, at the Metro plastic technology plant, associated with the daily forklift challenges of a pair of material handlers at the plant, they are constantly traveling to and from the plant\'s 25 adult printing machines.
Again, quality control personnel find themselves in a state of panic trying to keep up with the changingthe-
\"When it\'s done, it\'s done\" the weed moment of all sorts of details inherent in the production cycle-
Customization for customers
Manufacturing of molded parts.
\"Thinking in this way, in the center, seems to be blasphemy, but we want more automation,\" Ken Hahn said . \" President of Metro plastics, its origin dates back to the medium term1970s.
Today, the company employs 125 employees and, as of last year, an autonomous mobile robot.
Kind of like a self.
MiR200 is a product of the Danish mobile industry robot, which drives the airline\'s beverage car.
MiR is a company based in Teradyne, reading, North, Massachusetts.

Square foot factory, cycle regularly, stop on the production line to pick up the pieces, put down the parts at the inspection station.
The robot has traveled 200 miles in the past nine months.
Hahn is aware of the stigma that automation brings, but doesn\'t want to get stuck in the past, he advanced mobile robot solutions to meet his unique amorphous production line challenge because it makes the most sense, even considering feedback from employees.
Hahn said Metro plastics did replace the location for some hours with robots that cost less than $50,000.
But the company has also added a completetime (better paying)
Automation jobs;
At the same time, he added that the material handlers \"can now focus on the process \". On a bigger-
The picture base, Metro plastic is an impressive story of growth and dynamic nature of the global supply chain.
But we\'re talking about automation.
\"Not only did the worker not get delayed by the robot, but instead it has become a source of pride,\" Hahn said . \".
\"Some of our employees brought their children and spouses to work just to show them.
Morale improved.
\"The negative impact of increased automation-it could affect the livelihoods of millions of workers --
So far, in 2019, class people have been receiving more attention from think tank reports warning of potential unemployment to humorous clips condemning robots on cable television. indignities.
With some type of soul in mind, automation might boost the morale of the factory, which doesn\'t look like it should be an outsider
Now, the trouble of swallowing the assembly line is relieved by robot technology.
However, it can be said that the opposite mood has begun to swell, and the differences around robots in the manufacturing industry may continue to ferment as a social problem.
Attention recently-
Last fall, at the European Amazon fulfillment center, caught a few episodes when the pressure was heavy
The workers threatened to strike, and some of them shouted, \"We are not robots \".
\"Many of Amazon\'s global transit centers rely on mobile robots to ship a large inventory of Vertical shelves.
Of course, it\'s not hard to imagine a scenario where employees are frustrated when the reference point to measure their performance is uniquePurpose machine.
New research supports the concept.
A joint research group at Cornell University and Hebrew University in Jerusalem has just published an experimental result to measure what is going to happen on a driven machine, when people compete with robots on a simple task.
In this case, we are talking about the 600 round of a small game called \"Letter G (
Found in a string of 20 randomly generated characters).
The subjects were told that their chances of winning the prize would be determined by the performance difference between them and the robot.
\"We found that when they found that the robot was slow, they worked harder and vice versa,\" explains Ori Heffetz . \" Thus, with the robot performing better, the human level of performance he teaches economics at Cornell University\'s Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
He\'s one of five colleagues.
The author of the study, \"currency

\"Heffetz co-authored,
Cornell University engineering professor and writer Guy Hoffman brings together two different disciplines, but there are also two old friends who have been discussing some form of research collaboration for a long time.
They met for the first time in the Israeli army in early 1990.
The two of them began to notice a few years ago. I.
This is a topic that has not been given full attention and needs to be discussed not only in the economic and engineering fields, but more prominently in society as a whole.
The two professors received help from three graduate authors on the project: Alap Kshirsagar (
Cornell University
And Bnaya Dreyfuss and handsome guy Ishai (
All from Hebrew University of Jerusalem).
Hoffman gently objected to the claim that the study found that robots had a low morale effect on humans when performing tasks side by side.
\"What I can say is that we have found a small frustration effect,\" Hoffman said . \" He has been fascinated by automation and related sociological issues since he first met about a decade ago, having a selfcheck-

What needs to be clear: The author acknowledges that this is an experiment, a final conclusion that a conversation begins, not that the robot weakens the potential of the selfesteem.
However, it is interesting to note that when researchers \"improve\" the speed at which robots calculate Gs, this leads to a decline in the performance level of human subjects.
\"This is based on the established theoretical predictions of people\'s expectations of victory,\" Hoffman explained . \".
\"We don\'t know, and we don\'t claim to know the psychological reasons for this effect, so I\'m not going to say that people are frustrated, sad or angry with robots.
He said: \"But what we see is that the better the robot is, the less people like it.
\"Interestingly, there is evidence that, depending on the needs of people who are willing to engage in manual labor, there will be more opportunities for robots and automation in general to boost rather than hurt morale in the workplace.
Behind-of-the-
Envelopes are estimated to be made by a senior sales executive of a packaging machinery manufacturer on the East Coast, some of which are automatic.
The executive, who asked to be anonymous, explained: \"I have interacted with about 30 factories in a given year . \"e.
Don\'t want to take the risk of delaying his client.
\"So I would say that almost all of this can be described as being automated or becoming more automated.
At the same time, most of them are still in recruitment mode when we talk and can\'t find good enough people.
\"The workers were redistributed and not replaced.
As far as any robot is concerned
Equipment vendors insist that the associated low morale is not obvious and there is no denying that they add that automation may have increased low morale in 8 of the 10 examples.
Another day, there is a story to be written. What is driving the subway plastics to move forward so quickly (
\"Answering the phone, not taking profit from our customer\'s mistakes,\" Hahn said . \" He will succeed with in-
Company-wide commitments (like those).
So yeah they look around and see a no
It is a more sensible opportunity for robots to join this combination.
It is worth noting that
But it is an integral part of a larger mosaic.
A step back, a clearer picture appears, that is, technology is used both economically and humanly.
Many years ago, big poultry realized that cutting down chicken heads and running around was the only way to run a slaughterhouse.
Higher and higher social demands.
Animal welfare problems do exist in business decisions.
For example, Purdue announced last month that it would spend $20 million to develop a less cruel way of transporting chickens to the dead.
It turns out that reducing human
