      AS/RS - Stacker Cranes / SRMs

      Reliable Energy and Data Solutions for Automated Storage and Retrieval

      Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) based on Storage and Retrieval machines (SRMs) are often used in automated high-bay warehouses. The power supply of SRMs is crucial for their high dynamics and efficiency. Our tailored energy transmission solutions power all axes - horizontal, vertical, and load handling devices - while reducing energy consumption. Thanks to innovative technologies such as CopperECO conductor rail on the horizontal axis, we minimize energy losses, reducing CO2 emissions and operating costs.

      Precise data transmission ensures seamless communication between SRMs and control systems. Our real-time solutions guarantee accurate motion, positioning, and monitoring, maximizing uptime and boosting the efficiency of automated warehouses.

      Advanced control solutions enable dynamic, efficient operation of SRMs. Our systems integrate easily with digital warehouse platforms, synchronizing motion to optimize productivity and meet the demands of modern intralogistics.

        AGVs & AMRs

        Powering Smart Mobility: Solutions for AGVs and AMRs

        AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) and AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) are essential for automated material transportation in factories and warehouses. While AGVs follow fixed routes, AMRs use SLAM technology to navigate dynamically and adapt to changing environments. To maximize uptime and efficiency, a well-designed energy supply and data communication strategy is essential.

        A reliable energy concept is key to ensuring continuous operation. Opportunity charging helps minimize battery size, weight and cost, while reducing the total number of robots needed to perform a given task. Our solutions, such as inductive charging and conductor rail systems, provide efficient power transmission, eliminating long charging breaks. Intelligent energy management, which co-designs battery size with the charging strategy, enables seamless integration into operational workflows, allowing robots to charge strategically without disrupting production.

        Stable and fast data connectivity is essential for accurate navigation, process control, and fleet management. Our solutions enable real-time communication, allowing AGVs and AMRs to receive updates, optimize routes, and react dynamically to obstacles. In addition, advanced data management allows robots to enter sleep mode during downtime and wake up automatically, reducing unnecessary energy consumption.
