Benefits of Cross Company's Automation Solutions

There are many benefits to implementing automation solutions in your industrial operation. Whether you’re looking for automation for increased productivity, cost reduction, greater accuracy, enhanced safety, or just looking to future-proof your operation through greater scalability and flexibility, Cross has a solution for you.

Automation solutions are often able to eliminate manual or repetitive tasks (for instance, automated palletizing). By automating this process, operations are able to allocate resources more efficiently by freeing up workers who would otherwise be palletizing all day long to work on more business-critical tasks. They also streamline workflows, reduce labor costs overall, and minimize operational expenses through automation for resource-intensive tasks. Both of these benefits let your operation optimize resource allocation and save money in the long run. These solutions also remove humans from hazardous or physically straining tasks, which improves safety conditions and minimizes workplace-related injury.

Further, automation solutions offer your facility scalability and flexibility. This allows your operation to adapt to changing market demands and to scale as needed. Flexibility like this is a critical component in future-proofing your facility and setting yourself apart in the market.

Did you know… Cross Company is an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan). Our ESOP started in 1979 and as of 2006, we are 100% employee-owned! Learn more about our ESOP and how that benefits both team members and our customers.
Did you know... the precision measurement group at Cross was founded in 1939 by our current CEO's grandfather, Jim King. That's a whole lot of calibration!
Did you know... A fingerprint weighs about 50 micrograms. We know, we weighed it! The residue left from a finger can actually make a difference in weight results which is why we wear gloves when we calibrate weights. For reference, a sheet of paper is about 4.5 grams, that’s 4.5 million micrograms.
Did you know… Cross Company has grown significantly since our start in 1954. Over the years we've acquired 26 companies! Today, our five groups have expertise in everything from industrial automation to precision measurement, and industry knowledge going all the way back to 1939.
