Your line will be down in two minutes. You find out right now.
Internal transports – milk run, forklift, tugger train – controlled by actual demand instead of schedules. The transport order is created before the bottleneck occurs.
The milkrun runs on time. Right past actual demand.
Schedule instead of demand
The tugger train makes its rounds – whether the zone is empty or has enough stock for hours. Empty runs and bottlenecks exist at the same time.
Forklifts on shout-out
Transport needs are phoned in, radioed, or shouted – prioritized by volume, not by impact.
No transparency regarding transport equipment
Nobody knows where the nearest available forklift is – so the urgent load waits.
Bottlenecks are reported when they occur
There is no two-minute warning before a line stop – there is only the line stop.
Demand triggers the transport. Not the clock.
Real-time inventory per zone
Every workstation and staging zone reports its fill level – based on physical capture, not system postings.
Automated transport orders
If a zone falls below the minimum stock level, the order is created – prioritized by time to bottleneck.
Dynamic milk run routes
The tugger train services only the stations that actually have a demand – prioritized by urgency.
Forklift guidance system
Orders are assigned to the nearest available vehicle – with navigation and priority logic.
Seamless posting
Every handoff posts automatically in SAP EWM – transport and its documentation are one and the same process.
What you wirklich move.
Every transport, every route, every fill level flows into the digital twin. This creates the actual data needed to simulate and further optimize your material flow.
How many line stops per month are due to missing material?
In pilot scoping, we quantify idle times, empty runs, and transport effort – and define the first area where demand drives transport.
