Excellent overview of material handling equipment. The best part is the activity profiling data analysis primers.

ผมอ่านฉบับแปลไทย ซึ่งซื้อมาเมื่อประมาณสิบปีก่อน โชคดีที่เจอหนังสือเล่มนี้อีกครั้ง อ่านครั้งนี้เห็นภาพมากขึ้นกว่าเดิม คาดหวังจะใช้ประโยชน์มากขึ้น

หนังสือเก่าแต่อ่านแล้วยังไม่รู้สึกเก่ามากในด้านเทคโนโลยี เห็นได้เลยว่าเรายังล้าหลังอยู่พอสมควร ไม่ควรหยุดเรียนรู้

ขออนุญาตเครดิตผู้แปล คุณอนุวัฒน์ ทรัพย์พืชผล และคุณไพบูลย์ กิจวรวุฒิ โดยบรรณธิการคือ ดร.วิทยา สุหฤทดำรง
