Retrofitting: Modernization of logistics technology and the associated IT
The topic of retrofitting is becoming increasingly important in intra logistics. The reason? About 30 years ago the automation of warehouses began on a broad basis. This storage technology, conveyor technology and machines require more and more regular maintenance. Costs are rising and availability is continuously decreasing. That’s why the motto of the Logistics Retrofit is – restore the reliability of the technology!
Currently, the modernization of IT systems such as SAP release changes or updates to S4 HANA is frequently performed. The modernization of warehouse technology, conveyor technology, robots and shelf automation or storage and retrieval machines or palletizing robots are often part of the technology retrofit. Often an outdated control technology of the plants is to be found and replaced. The specialists at IWL help you to make automation reliable and resilient again!
