Abstract
Focusing on the food manufacturing sector, these sectors do play a significant part in the production of a variety of consumable goods for international markets. The food manufacturing industry places considerable physical demands on its employees, involving tasks such as lifting heavy loads and moving trolleys. These physically strenuous activities are integral to the production and logistics processes, encompassing the handling of raw materials, and finished products within the manufacturing facility. Working in an environment with few employees undoubtedly required employees to perform more tasks, such as lifting and carrying heavy objects from the store to the kitchen, which required them to expend more energy and time than if they had remained on the kitchen side and only performed their duties. To address this issue, the implementation of Smart Lean Manufacturing practices in the food industry is necessary. One viable solution involves utilizing smart guided delivery robots equipped with wireless technology. These robots can be easily monitored by users or employees in-charge, enabling them to track the robot's movement and the load it carries. The incorporation of line tracking robots, enhanced by Internet of Things (IoT) technology, offers further advancements. These innovations effectively reduce the burden of heavy workloads in the manufacturing industry, while simultaneously promoting the safety and well-being of employees in the workplace. By embracing Smart Lean Manufacturing practices and employing smart guided delivery robots, the physical strain on employees is alleviated, leading to increased efficiency and productivity.
