What makes Xpert special? How does Xpert differ from the others?
Digital Pioneer Xpert.Digital
It all started in 1988 with application-oriented knowledge processing, which dealt, among other things, with AI.
Industry development: From testing machines and test systems, we evolved through logistics/intralogistics to the photovoltaic industry.
Digital Pioneer : The development ranges from the beginnings of search engine optimization (SEO), through the first content management systems (CMS), to social media with projects totaling over 17 million followers ( see Social Media PDF Library ).
Xpert.Digital is an industry hub focusing on digitalization, mechanical engineering, logistics/intralogistics, and photovoltaics. With our 360° business development solution, we support renowned companies from new business development to after-sales service; market intelligence and smarketing are part of our digital toolkit.
Over the decades, we have developed comprehensive expertise in the areas of smart grid/city/factory, photovoltaics, and logistics/intralogistics. With the EU Green Deal, the solar panel mandate for new buildings , and autonomous power supply (see CO2 tax), we can present ourselves to you as a partner and a sustainably grown company that hasn't just jumped on this bandwagon due to recent headlines.
Currently, you'll find over 1,000 articles on these topics here. If you'd like to get to know us, we cordially invite you to read these articles and our over 300 PDFs on various topics free of charge.
- Are you looking for information and data on specific topics or issues and don't have the time or patience to search for these articles and PDFs yourself?
- Are you looking for help and support with your logistics? Warehouse optimization? Strategic planning? E-commerce experts?
With over 1,000 articles published, we cannot present all topics here. Therefore, you will find a small selection of our work here, and we would be delighted if we have sparked your interest in learning more about us:

Some see the European Green Deal as yet another attempt by the EU to patronize or even harass its citizens. However, few realize that it is actually about providing planning certainty and transparency for industry and investors to ensure a green growth strategy. The EU's ambitious goal is to become the world's first climate-neutral continent by 2050.
But there are other ways, and there are other reasons worth considering. At online retailer Amazon, shipping and fulfillment costs have skyrocketed in the last ten years: total logistics costs increased more than twentyfold between 2009 and 2019.

Optimizing self-consumption of electricity with photovoltaics for transport and logistics companies – including rooftop solar systems and electricity storage

Following the decisions on phasing out coal and the Climate Protection Act of 2019, electricity prices are expected to rise by approximately 40% by 2030. Current financing models are based on the current situation and do not take future developments into account. This means that as electricity prices increase, solar power systems become increasingly worthwhile.
Since January 2021, a CO2 tax has been in effect on gasoline, diesel, heating oil, and gas. Those who do not drive sustainably or heat their homes sustainably must expect significantly higher and increasing costs.

Logistics is constantly evolving. One challenge follows another: warehouse optimization, process acceleration, cost efficiency, CO2 reduction, automation, and competitive pressure. E-commerce and Amazon are the driving forces behind this development. Amazon is not only one of the world's largest online retailers, but also a driver and innovator of many technological advancements that wouldn't exist today without it. The journey from an online bookseller in 1994 to the e-commerce giant it is today is breathtaking.
The only question is when the next level, the plateau, will be reached, where things will consolidate and appropriate adjustments can be made to the development?

Why optimize the warehouse?
Warehouse optimization with order picking – Image: Nejron Photo|Shutterstock.com
Today's digitized workplace, thanks to innovative control software and automated, networked systems, offers ample potential for continuous optimization of warehouse operations. After all, what good is the best and most modern warehouse if the processes behind it don't function properly?

Another way to optimize warehouse operations is to establish and expand a buffer stock. Buffer stocks are designed to ensure supply in case of potential shortages, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The advantages of efficient warehouse management, especially in e-commerce, are therefore as follows:
- Increased productivity in the warehouse leads to better competitiveness
- Lower costs due to reduced staffing needs, higher utilization of existing space, and resource-efficient operation of the systems
- High customer satisfaction through fast and precise delivery and shipping
- Optimal space utilization due to high-density storage
- Overview & security thanks to modern software control
- Scalability and flexibility through modularly expandable storage systems

The materials handling and intralogistics sector is part of mechanical engineering and deals with the organization, implementation, and optimization of internal material flows using technical systems and services. The intralogistics sector includes manufacturers of lifting equipment and cranes, forklifts, and warehouse technology (e.g., buffer storage), as well as software providers and complete system suppliers.
Between two high-bay racks there is an aisle for the fully automated storage and retrieval system (stacker crane or ASRS – Automated storage and retrieval systems), which is necessary for the automated loading and unloading of the high-bay racks.
