🌟 How will Large Language Models (LLMs) impact automation? Two years ago, nobody was talking about LLMs. Today, they’re the hottest topic in tech. But what role could they play in #automation ? In the latest Intralogistics Insiders episode, Tobias Ortmaier from Hannover based voraus robotik GmbH Robotik shares his thoughts on how LLMs might integrate into automation systems and why companies need to stay adaptable to embrace these rapid changes. 🎥 Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/eDq2R2sK #Intralogistics #DigitalTransformation

🤔 What’s holding back automation in #intralogistics? Skilled labor shortages, outdated systems, and fear of change are some of the biggest obstacles. But innovative solutions are making it easier to overcome them. In the latest Intralogistics Insiders episode, Tobias Ortmaier from voraus robotik GmbH shares: ✅ How companies can start small and scale without fear ✅ Why IT and DevOps should come together for automation success ✅ How open systems and tools like LLMs are transforming the industry ▶️ Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/eDq2R2sK

💡 “The biggest obstacle to automation isn’t technology—it’s fear.” In the latest intralogistics insiders episode, Tobias Ortmaier from voraus robotik GmbH talks about the fear of taking that first step toward #automation. His advice? Start small. Experiment. Build confidence. With the right incremental approach, automation becomes less risky—and more achievable. 🎥 Check out the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/eDq2R2sK

SYNAOS @ Ford INNOVATION EXPO 2024: Detroit, Motor City, ist heute wieder der Ort, an dem die Zukunft der Mobilität gestaltet wird – und dieses Mal geht es um #Automatisierung und #Robotik! Hier bei Ford ist die positive Energie rund um #Automatisierung in jeder Ecke spürbar. Besonders interessant ist das enorme Interesse an skalierbaren und langfristigen Lösungen für die #Intralogistik. Die USA erleben gerade eine unglaubliche Aufbruchsstimmung in der Automatisierung – und es ist inspirierend diese Energie live mitzuerleben. In meinem Vortrag auf der Ford INNOVATION EXPO 2024 zum Thema zentrale Leitsteuerung wurde deutlich, wie sehr der Bedarf an vernetzten und interoperablen Systemen steigt. Flotten werden heterogener, und mit dem Automatisierungsschwung wächst das Bewusstsein: Wir müssen nicht nur an morgen denken – sondern schon an übermorgen. Unternehmen suchen nach Lösungen, die auch in Zukunft skalierbar sind und die Flexibilität garantieren. Wer die Intralogistik von morgen und übermorgen gestalten will, kommt um holistische Lösungen nicht herum. Es geht um mehr als nur einzelne Systeme – es geht um Interoperabilität auf höchstem Niveau. Hier spielt natürlich auch die #VDA5050 eine große Rolle. Die Zukunft ist vernetzt – und ich bin überzeugt, dass wir durch Zusammenarbeit und mutiges Handeln die Transformation der Intralogistik gemeinsam meistern werden. #synaos

Why do 20-30% of #automation projects fall short? It’s all about treating the shop floor as an interconnected system. When automating #intralogistics, it’s not just about adding new AGVs or AMRs — it’s about understanding the shop floor as a system of interconnected parts. Application design isn’t just a step — it’s the foundation. Without a road map that goes beyond isolated automation, even the best mobile robots can’t deliver their full value. Designing with the bigger picture in mind ensures each piece of technology complements the next, creating a seamless, scalable operation.

🍁 Autumn is here, and it's the perfect time to plant seeds of #automation success. In our october newsletter, we're looking at the power of interoperability and how early adoption can future-proof your #intralogistics automation. What's inside? - Real-World Interoperability: It's not sci-fi anymore—it's happening now. We've brought insights and impressions from key players in the space who we met at the Mobile Robotics Summit. - Start Small, Think Big: Dr. Philipp Schäfers dives into why starting with interoperability pays off in the long run, in the latest "Intralogistics Insiders" podcast. 🎙️ - Dr. Wolfgang Hackenberg and Matthias Plucinski discuss the impact of #VDA5050 and why standards are key to scalable automation in the Automation Awakenings episode. 📊

Thank you to SYNAOS for the opportunity to speak at the Mobile Robotics Summit in Düsseldorf on October 9th. Engaging discussions during my keynote on the Future of Smart Factories highlighted the significance of Autonomous Mobile Robotics (AMRs) combined with digitalization in modern-day manufacturing. Amazon's commitment to innovation in robotics, particularly at their fulfillment centers, showcases the potential of cyber-physical systems in shaping the factories of tomorrow. Amazon Web Services (AWS) plays a pivotal role in driving this transformation, and ensuring seamless factory operations. SYNAOS demonstrated this by integrating various AMRs, and interfacing the automation with systems like MES/WMS, using AWS. This enables enterprises freedom to select top-tier mobile robots without their interoperability concerns. Highly secure, reliable and resilient on-premises to cloud architectures can now be built using AWS services for end-to-end factory automation. We are excited to contribute to the advancement of your future factories.

EXCEL-based planning does nothing for your operational EXCELlence 😉 #Intralogistics is often seen as a static, segmented process. The truth is, operational excellence comes from understanding your warehouse or production facility as a holistic, dynamic system rather than as individual parts. Real operational excellence demands real-time data and the capability to adapt as conditions change as Dr. Philipp Schäfers explains. To futureproof your intralogistics, build an infrastructure that collects, connects, and uses data and always finds the best possible solution for the task to be fulfilled.
