Slip Robotics

🚀 Introducing SlipBot+ Attachments 🚀 Some freight is too loose. Some too big. Some can’t be stacked. Now, that doesn’t matter. Today, we’re launching SlipBot+, a suite of modular attachments that expand what SlipBots can handle. Every day, dock operations struggle with: ❌ Slow loading & unloading times ❌ Wasted trailer space ❌ Freight that’s tough to move—loose, oversized, or non-stackable SlipBot+ changes that: ✅ Loose parcels? No problem. ✅ Non-stackable items? Stack them efficiently. ✅ More freight types. Same 5-minute load/unload times. And that’s just the beginning. Some freight doesn’t fit neatly into racks. Some can’t be stacked at all. There are SlipBot+ attachments for that, too. 🔗 See what’s possible: https://lnkd.in/eP7ntp4T With these modular attachments, SlipBots load and unload  even more  freight, at any dock, in just five minutes. #SlipBot #SlipBot+ #Automation #SupplyChain #Logistics #TruckLoading

RECAP: September 2025 was Fully Loaded. 🚚⚙️ What a month! From PARCEL Forum (The #1 Package Fulfillment Event in the U.S.) in Chicago to IntraLogisteX Exhibition in Miami, Actuate in San Francisco, and Automotive Logistics & Supply Chain Global in Detroit — we’ve been on the move. Across every floor and forum, one thing was clear: The industry is ready to move with more speed, more savings and more simplicity at the dock. Whether it’s solving dock congestion, reducing wait times, or eliminating the need for manual trailer loading—Slip is built for this moment. Thanks to everyone who stopped by, asked hard questions, and shared bold visions. Let’s keep pushing the future of logistics forward. 🚀 #SlipRobotics #SupplyChainInnovation #DockEfficiency #LogisticsTech #Intralogistics #AutomotiveSupplyChain #ParcelForum #IntraLogisteX #Accentuate #ALSCE25 #ALRs #MaterialHandling #SupplyChain #Innovation #MadeintheUSA

Our CEO Christopher Smith Smith was on a great panel today at Automotive Logistics & Supply Chain Global where they discussed the role of robotics in network material flow. He was joined by: 🔹 Todd Morley – Henkel 🔹 Nathan Klamerus – General Motors 🔹 Gary Allen – Ryder System, Inc. Together, they explored how automation is reshaping logistics, and the need for true ROI with each deployment. #ALSCGlobal

🚀 Big shoutout to our CTO & Co-Founder, Dennis JL Siedlak, Ph.D., for rocking the stage at Actuate 2025! His talk on “Fast-Loop Autonomy: How Observability at Scale Accelerates Robotics Development" showcased how Slip Robotics is transforming chaotic loading docks into seamless operations with our SlipBots. By leveraging Foxglove and custom data pipelines, we’re accelerating development while ensuring rock-solid reliability. Thanks, Actuate, for the platform, and to all who joined the convo! Ready to fast-loop the future of freight? Let’s go!  #Actuate2025 #Robotics #SlipRobotics #Innovation #Data #MaterialHandling #Warehousing #Solutions #Operations #Freight

We are thrilled be at IntraLogisteX Exhibition in beautiful Miami Beach this week! Stop by booth 732 and learn how we can help put a 🛑 stop 🛑 to bottlenecks at your dock! #slipbots #tradeshow #intralogistex #sliprobotics #warehousingsolutions

We are excited for our inaugural year at PARCEL Forum (The #1 Package Fulfillment Event in the U.S.) Booth 615! 🚀 If you’re tired of the endless wait at loading docks, swing by to discover how our SlipBots revolutionize the game—loading and unloading at any dock, with any freight, in just 5 minutes. Let’s chat about avoiding bottlenecks at your docks. Find us at Booth 615! #ParcelForum #Automation #SupplyChain #Robotics #Parcel25Chicago

In manufacturing operations at Cummins and Tesla, I saw how even a 10-minute delay in material flow could ripple across an entire line. At Tesla, we pushed every boundary to move material as fast as possible—because speed wasn’t just about efficiency; it was about enabling the entire system to operate at a higher throughput. In manufacturing, we spend a lot of time optimizing cost and quality—rightly so. But material flow speed is the silent lever that unlocks outsized gains. When material flows faster: -         Lead times shrink. -         Buffer inventory drops—space increases. -         Flexibility increases. -         Variability decreases. -         Throughput rises—without touching the production line. At Slip Robotics, we focus on a major speed limiter many plants overlook: the dock. By automating loading and unloading, we reduce the time from warehouse shelf to lineside by up to 50%. That’s not just dock efficiency—it’s end-to-end material flow acceleration. The impact? Smoother flow. Less waiting. Faster response to change. Lower cost. In a JIT environment, material flow speed isn’t just helpful—it’s a strategic advantage. Slip Robotics

🚀 The Slip Robotics August Newsletter just dropped! This month, we dive into how to automate your dock—without disrupting operations. Plus, catch us live in September at three major events in Chicago, Miami, and Detroit to see how our automated trailer loading tech is revolutionizing docks across the supply chain. #Manufacturing #SupplyChain #Automation #SlipRobotics #WarehouseAutomation #DockOps #MaterialHandling #MadeInUSA

🚨 One of the hardest jobs to hire for? Loading and unloading trailers. It’s hot. It’s physically demanding. It’s high turnover. That’s why the loading dock is prime real estate for automation. SlipBots load & unload trailers in just 5 minutes. No Wi-Fi. No facility changes. No forklift certification. The result? ✅ Safer work ✅ Faster turns ✅ A bigger labor pool Automation that’s easy to use doesn’t replace people — it helps them. And the companies building for real operators in real environments will be the ones who win the trust to deploy even more robots. 📖 Modern Materials Handling recently explored how our industry is rethinking automation: https://lnkd.in/gHgj8FgN

The dock is often the most overlooked part of the warehouse—and the most expensive. That’s why we’ve made it our focus. We’re excited to share a new feature in Automated Warehouse that explores how Slip Robotics is transforming trailer loading and unloading with our self-driving SlipBots. In the article, Eugene Demaitre covers: • How SlipBots can fully load or unload a trailer in under five minutes • Why our approach works with non-standard freight like racks, bins, and soft packs • How we’ve designed a system that’s fast to deploy, infrastructure-free, and ergonomic for workers • And how customers like Four Hands and Valeo are already seeing major efficiency and safety gains One of our favorite quotes came from an operator who told us, “I’ve been doing this job for years, but now I feel like I’m working in tech.” That’s the kind of impact we strive to create. We’re proud to be building tools that make dock work faster, safer, and smarter—for every kind of facility. Check out the full article here: https://lnkd.in/ekCA2ATk
