AI is rapidly changing how packaging gets made, especially in high-mix, high-SKU environments.
In this session, Josh Gruenstein, CEO of Tutor Intelligence, explains how AI-driven robotics is making automation more flexible, adaptable, and accessible. Traditional robots have long been too rigid and costly for many operations. New AI approaches allow robots to learn on the job, reducing the need for custom engineering and making automation viable across a wider range of packaging lines.
A key focus is case packing and the impact of growing SKU complexity. AI-enabled robots can handle variation and short runs with far greater ease, raising important questions for packaging teams. If automation can keep up with constant change, how does that influence product variety, limited runs, and marketing strategies?
You'll learn:
- Why high-SKU environments are a turning point for automation
- How AI is changing the cost and flexibility of robotic systems
- What this means for packaging design and development
- Where warehouse automation and humanoid robotics are heading next
As physical constraints begin to ease, packaging creativity and engineering will evolve alongside them. Understanding how to work with intelligent automation will shape the next generation of packaging.
