The logistics industry consists largely of freight forwarders and warehouses as well as transport companies and has become increasingly important since the end of the 20th century due to the distribution of production across numerous locations (globalization). In Germany it is now the third largest industry in terms of number of employees.
Economics and engineering sciences independently dealt with the various aspects of logistics. This includes, for example, supply chain management as well as traffic or material flow technology. The corresponding sub-disciplines have now grown together to form a new interdisciplinary science. Organizations often have independent areas that deal with logistics. In the military this is the logistics force, in hospitals it is the hospital logistics department and in companies it is logistics departments with different scopes of tasks.
The size of cities around the world is constantly increasing, fueled by the many millions of people who flow from the countryside into urban centers every year. But increasing urbanization is leading to growing demands on governments, companies and city administrations to manage the growing demand for goods and infrastructure in the centers.
But the supply gaps in rural regions also need to be closed . This challenge is primarily aimed at strategic logistics. But it is also an opportunity to deliver real added value and profit for companies and society through digitalization and Logistics 4.0.
- We offer organizational and planning ideas through to turnkey solutions.
- If required, we also provide market figures and forecasts for over 150 countries.
The future of logistics: It is increasingly becoming the core of optimized processes in a wide range of disciplines
Automating such processes is only part of the solution. Structures and management must also be put to the test. But above all, it is important that people do not lose control and overview.
The future of logistics centers

Logistics centers are not a key industry, but they are part of our most important key infrastructure in our expanding business location. Despite some difficulties at the beginning of the corona pandemic, logistics has so far coped with the crisis well. What she didn't have to master: Rapidly increasing transport volumes via e-commerce, as if it were just before Christmas. Absorbing delays in just-in-time production, i.e. demand-synchronous production, as well as absorbing supply chain slumps and coordinating them in the best possible way.
With over 1,000 specialist articles, we cannot present all topics here. Therefore, you will find a small excerpt from our work here and we would be pleased if we have piqued your interest in getting to know us better:
Intralogistics 4.0 and the intelligent material flow systems of material flow technology

The conveyor technology and intralogistics industry is part of mechanical engineering and deals with the organization, implementation and optimization of internal material flows using technical systems and services. The intralogistics industry includes manufacturers of hoists and cranes, forklifts and storage technology (e.g. buffer storage ) as well as software providers and complete system providers.
Intralogistics refers to the logistical flows of materials and goods that take place within a company premises. The term was defined to differentiate it from the transport of goods outside of a factory, e.g. B. by a shipping company.

Plan photovoltaics for warehouses, commercial halls and industrial halls

Whether it's a flat roof or a pitched roof, everything is free of roof penetration.
Politicians are getting serious, the new climate protection law, the heart of the Green Deal , is driving measures and developments forward. Legal regulations for new commercial buildings with photovoltaics requirements already apply in some federal states.
What is roof penetration free?
With a roof-penetration-free photovoltaic roof installation, no holes have to be drilled through the roof or other interventions have to be made. Sloped gable and monopitch roofs, which are designed with bitumen or foil covering, could previously hardly be realized without roof penetration or only with great effort.

Smart Factory: With effective intralogistics to Industry 4.0

In general, the term Industry 4.0 is defined as the close integration of industrial production with the latest information and communication technology. Many approaches to these guiding principles of Industry 4.0 can already be found in intralogistics; especially with regard to automation and networking of storage systems.
Modern logistics goes far beyond just packaging and transporting goods. Speed, precision, flexibility and networking have long been crucial competitive factors there, because customers want to access inventory at any time and from any location and be informed about its availability. Networking and interconnection including digital information management, these core requirements of Industry 4.0, have long since arrived in the intralogistics industry.

Automation techniques are about the skills to design, create, develop and manage machines and systems, e.g. B. Factory automation, process automation and warehouse automation (e.g. buffer warehouse).
Automation technology is the integration of standard engineering elements. Automatic control of various control systems for the operation of various systems or machines to reduce human effort and time and increase accuracy. Automation engineers design and maintain everything from electromechanical devices and systems to high-speed robots and programmable logic controllers.
