To meet the ever-growing customer demands for fast supply and adherence to delivery dates,  the Baumer focus is on centralized and automated logistics. The ultra-modern logistics center which is part of the new High-tech Center Lake Constance will be servicing customers in Europe with end-to-end deliveries while acting as international hub for consolidated shipments to customers all over the world. Presently, first test of the robot-operated warehousing system are run.

10 intelligent robots at several picking points will channel the requested containers into the system. Furthermore, system-automated container feeding eliminates process errors. The compact system allows for maximum exploitation of the available storage space. Consolidated and centralized warehousing of products by several Baumer locations ensures immediate availability and shipment of the ordered goods which provides the customers with valuable benefits in terms of high-quality, prompt and smooth delivery.

IoT respectively Industry 4.0 has now also arrived in the Baumer logistics. Intelligently linked logistics operating on Baumer sensors ensure fully automated goods replenishment as soon as the system is operational.  In addition, the system is capable of releasing production orders in a Baumer plant all by itself. And last but not least, both customers and employees will be notified early on about any change in a consignment’s shipping status.
