- Siemens’ trade show motto: “Intelligent intralogistics - experience the flow”
- Digitalization in intralogistics as a decisive competitive advantage
- Highlight: Trade show model of a Dynamic Gapper application demonstrates the benefits possible by connecting the real and digital worlds
Under the motto "Intelligent intralogistics - experience the flow", Siemens will present at this year's Logimat in Hall 3, Booth D11, how a comprehensive digital twin is developed with the Digital Enterprise Portfolio. Simulation based on a digital twin makes it possible to design applications and processes in intralogistics in a highly efficient, flexible and intelligent way. Considering the fact that markets and requirements have changed in the past two years and the intralogistics industry has to cope with a rapidly growing e-commerce, this contributes to sustainable competitiveness. Here, increasing inventory turnover rates with shorter storage periods, small order quantities with high delivery speeds, rising return rates and short-term increases in delivery quantities require flexible and scalable intralogistics processes. The new requirements can be managed with the help of digitalization and automation.
