The 4.0 Made Real Pilot Factory will focus on personalised products in small series, or even lot size 1. In this situation a flawless integration and communication between the warehouse management software and the ERP will be critical. Furthermore, picking and kitting becomes more complex, so to avoid costly mistakes a failsafe solution is required. Vanas Engineering will add all this to the demonstrator.  

We are happy that Vanas Engineering has selected as one of its technology partners the Sirris '4.0 Made Real' initiative to demonstrate its smart storage solutions.
