Warehouse automation determines strategy

The biggest challenge was to connect the software between the Centric Locus WMS and Swisslog’s warehouse control systems (WCS). Thanks to the Good-to-man system Xenos achieves savings throughout the entire suppy chain. 

We had a maximum of one problem per week in the start-up phase, if any. It runs like clockwork.
