Digitalisation, interconnectivity, artificial intelligence and big data are key issues in the age of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things. Advances in IT and technology and smart, autonomous systems are opening up brand new levels of productivity and value-creation along the entire supply chain.
Tools such as virtual reality, 3D printing and sensors are offering new perspectives. Data exchange in real time is providing an opportunity to react flexibly to changes and make adjustments in good time – both in production and in the warehouse.
Systems are growing together into new, smart systems. That interconnectivity opens the way to faster, more energy-efficient and secure processes. In the ideal situation man and machine collaborate seamlessly and intuitively. Every company that wants to benefit from this digital transformation is faced with immense challenges in terms of the complexity of
these systems. At the same time, scope is opening up for innovations.
The technologies needed for intralogistics solutions and process management are in focus at LogiMAT. This is the leading international trade fair that provides a comprehensive market overview and competent knowledge-transfer. The unique infrastructure and clear segmentation of the exhibition sections ensure all participants get the inside track on first-hand intralogistics at LogiMAT.
