Integration of connected worker technology is becoming more essential as the packaging and processing industries strive for greater efficiency and productivity. Dr. Asif Rana, President of Hexagon’s Nexus Connected Worker, and Darren Metherell, Director of Sales, spoke to industry professionals attending a March 11 Innovation Stage session at PACK EXPO Southeast 2025 about connected worker challenges and solutions the Nexus Connected Worker platform provides to manufacturers.
Rana began by informing the audience of four barriers manufacturers face: (1) Labor shortages and high turnover rates, (2) paper-based instructions that lead to errors and inefficiencies, (3) lack of real-time visibility into operations, and (4) increases of compliance and traceability pressures.
