Case Study: Friesens boosts productivity and worker safety with FANUC robots and Innovair Automation

Friesens eliminates extra hiring and boosts output with FANUC automation

Friesens Corporation, an employee-owned publishing services company, faced challenges due to a workforce nearing retirement and labor shortages, which hindered its ambitious goal to double revenue. To address these issues and move employees from repetitive tasks, Friesens partnered with FANUC America Corporation and system integrator Innovair Automation to implement an automation solution.

The solution deployed FANUC M-710iC robots to automate the handling of print signatures. This implementation by FANUC America and Innovair eliminated the need to hire additional staff, significantly reduced workplace health and safety claims, and enhanced productivity for increased output. The automation allowed staff to transition into more meaningful and higher-paying roles, supporting the company's growth goals.
