Market relevance

Using MSC Technologies as an example, efficient warehouse management with lift systems is presented without unnecessary intermediate steps. The basic approach of directly coupling goods receipt and goods withdrawal with the ERP system can also be applied to other examples, which shows the market relevance.

Customer benefit

The direct registration of goods at the storage lifts is advantageous for the customer, as sources of error are minimized. The system enables material flow in multi-storey buildings without additional elements. In addition, employees get direct control and responsibility over warehouse management. Costs and effort are reduced.

Novelty

The presented project appears to be state of the art in many respects. Nevertheless, the overall process as well as the terminal as a direct SAP interface are seen as an innovative efficient solution.

Functionality / type of implementation

On the basis of the presentation, it is possible to reproduce a high-quality solution that has been well implemented for the small goods sector and can also be transferred in principle to other systems and scales.
