Industry 4.0 logistics in the digital age and Internet of Things IoT

Industry 4.0 provides a roadmap to the future of your operations

We are now entering the fourth industrial revolution. Industry 4.0 is changing how we interact with machines and how these machines interact with each other. This will have a significant impact on the warehouse. With decentralized, networked intelligence, advanced robotics and self-organized processes, the warehouse of the future will take a giant step forward in productivity, flexibility and efficiency. Backed by KUKA, Swisslog is ready to lead you on the journey to achieving the highest intralogistics performance in a digital age.
