A new study released at PACK EXPO Las Vegas reveals automation is a slow, gradual evolutionary curve for OEMS and end users alike. And there are many barriers to easy adoption.

Lack of qualified labor drives the need for more automation, but cost of such a large investment must be made gradually, slowing the process down.

Ironically enough, some medium and small end users and OEMs do not need all the bells and whistles, often lacking the skill set to operate sophisticated equipment offerings. So legacy equipment remains in place and sometimes manual operations are more suitable.
