Besides the removal of loaded pallets, a feedback system does not require any direct tasks conducted by workers. However, the constant monitoring of the operation of a feedback system is necessary. It is always possible, that the lifting unit fails and the loads cannot be safely transported. In this case, the machine must be stopped and repaired. The lifting unit requires regular maintenance and monitoring.
Training is required for the programming of a feedback system, but this can be done internally. It is important that every worker is made aware of the risks when using a feedback system. Just like industry robots, feedback systems rarely have sensors that are sensitive enough to stop their operation when someone enters the work space.
