Embedded intelligence

It embeds intelligence and synchronises the performance of an automated warehouse. With these flexible, self-learning and data driven logistics solutions, omnichannel warehouses can remain efficient even in the face of an increasing number of sporadic peaks.

As part of SynQ, Condition Monitoring allows users to view the current state of an intralogistics system at any time and ensures equipment works at maximum efficiency for the longest lifespan. Condition Monitoring predicts possible problems, reducing the risk of unscheduled downtime and maximizing delivery reliability. 

“Predictive Maintenance is the next step towards Industry 4.0,” says Swisslog Head of Sales in the UK, Shane Faulkner. “All automation sensors communicate together and learn from each other.”

At the opening ceremony of LogiMAT 2017, Swisslog Condition Monitoring was honoured with the “Best Product” award in the Software, Communication and IT category. Swisslog’s solution concept impressed the high-caliber jury of scientists and trade journalists thanks to its substantial contribution towards streamlining processes, saving costs and increasing productivity in intralogistics.

Swisslog’s Industry 4.0 concept ensures tomorrow’s material handling processes today. Thanks to flexible, adaptive logistics solutions, warehouses can improve efficiency in the face of constantly changing customer requirements. Backed by KUKA, Swisslog is ready to lead retail businesses on the journey to achieving the highest intralogistics performance in a digital age.
