On this episode of Industrial Talk, we are chatting with Casey King with AZO about maintenance accessibility, ergonomics and safety in your material handling solution.  Here are the key takeaways:

Casey is the Director of Engineering and Operations at AZO, a company that designs bulk ingredient handling systems.
AZO can handle projects of any size, from small one-offs to fully automated new production plants.
Casey discusses the importance of maintenance and accessibility in the design of material handling systems.
In the past, maintenance was often not considered until after the system was installed. This led to problems with access to equipment and components.
AZO is now making a conscious effort to consider maintenance and accessibility early in the design process.
This helps to ensure that systems are easy to maintain and that components can be easily replaced.
Casey also discusses the challenges of finding and retaining plant resources.
In some cases, it is no longer possible to find enough manual laborers to staff a plant.
This is leading to a greater demand for automation.
Azo can help companies to automate their plants and to improve their efficiency.

Here are some additional points that were made in the conversation:

Casey emphasizes the importance of having a "owners mentality" when designing material handling systems. This means thinking about how the system will be used over the long term, not just during the initial commissioning phase.
Casey also discusses the importance of using standardized components in material handling systems. This makes it easier to maintain and repair the system, and it also makes it easier to upgrade the system in the future.

Overall, the conversation provides a good overview of the challenges and opportunities in the material handling industry. Azo is well-positioned to help companies to address these challenges and to improve their efficiency.
