Northside Works, Line 4
A packaging line drawn from about 2,700 boxes a frame. Two depalletizing robots lift whole layers onto a shared conveyor without ever crossing; widgets are painted, dried, tested and packed, and autonomous forklifts move pallets between the line and the dock. Machines break down, a tech fixes them in priority order, and the crew takes tea breaks.
