Imagine…


…A PRODUCT WILL BE DISTRIBUTED TO THECUSTOMER BEFORE HE HAS PLACED HISORDER?


… SUPPLY CHAINS WILL BE ADAPTED HIGHLYFLEXIBLE TO THE NEEDS OF A INDIVIDUAL CUSTOMER OR EVEN ENTIRE SOCIETY


… IF THE AGE OF AN EMPLOYEE IS NOT RELEVANT ANYMORE


You think, „impossible“?

Maybe today –However, it can bepossible in the future!

We believe warehousing logistics hasnot yet reached its limits.


Megatrends –Some of them with more or less relevance for the Middle East

Limited storagespace and

growing productrange

Shortage of qualifiedemployees and strict

regulations

High productavailability in

shops

Individualization ofproducts, growinge-commerce and

omnichannel

Seasonal peaks

Intelligent robot-based and data driven automated warehouse solutions are required

What are other performance boosting

ASRS systems?



What is the next levelof robotics and big

data?


AutoPiQ and ACPaQOur robotics solutions

Flexible and MobileFast and Simple Integration: Easy to implement in new or existing picking systems

enables a failure-free operation with the highest availability.

Reliable: Improves picking quality and quantity Efficient: up to 1 000 units per hour Flexible: The modular design allows growing

companies to increase their capacity and efficiently handle peak demands.


Augmented Reality to Facilitate Warehouse Operations and ServiceOverview on current and future developments

Augmented service support (first pilots in 2017) Use AR to support service technicians

remotely Video and voice support Especially for locations with lack of skilled

labor

Augmented visualization (not productized) Digital shadow of your (future) warehouse You can see how the warehouse operates in

real time, incl. material flow You can walk around the warehouse and

check the overall layout New way of visualizing KPIs, e.g. by just

focusing on an element

Augmented picking (not productized) Replaces pick solutions like pick-to-light Reduction of hardware investment costs Hardware device (HoloLense) not mature

enough for a 8h picking shift, but technology will develop fast

Swisslog is prepared for the future


From 3D to Virtual Reality – Towards a New Way of Planning Overview on current and future developments

Today you can Walk through your warehouse and see how

it will operate; how pickers and operators

interact with the machines how walkways, access routes, cabinets

and conduits can be optimally positioned Thereby you can check the overall layout,

ergonomics and maintainability / accessibility

In the future you will be able to Show real-time operations and emulate Analyze performance & facilitate error

correction Run through “what if?” scenarios Systematically train staff (even before go-

live) Tour remotely through warehouses without

traveling Interact with multiple users


Summary

Robots and big data are changingour todays world and enable to boost

warehouse performances
