The software\u2019s ability to adapt to future technology will see users benefit from a future-proof operation, where additional functionality can be securely added, helping businesses capitalize on the opportunities emerging as Industry 4.0 evolves.<br \/>\n<em>\u201cSynQ provides the software platform that future hardware will rely on,\u201d<\/em> says Swisslog\u2019s Tim Eick, VP Software and Controls Development. <em>\u201cTo get the most out of automation and robotics we are increasingly reliant on data and interconnectivity. It\u2019s what is driving Industry 4.0 forward and allows users to deliver on promises to customers in the smartest way possible.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As a best-in-class intralogistics software platform, SynQ makes\u00a0insights, optimization and agility in storage and distribution operations possible. It represents a new approach that advances Swisslog\u2019s proven warehouse management software without leaving current users behind.<br \/>\nSynQ not only encompasses warehouse management, material flow and automation control systems functionality, it also provides an array of business intelligence tools that allow smart forecasting through real-time data analysis, in a modular platform.<br \/>\n<em>\u201cWhile SynQ represents a new approach to warehouse management software, it retains the core technology and functionality of our WM 6 warehouse management software,<\/em>\u201d says Tim Eick. <em>\u201cWe\u2019re upgrading deployment options such as cloud and fog capabilities while ensuring field-proven performance and upgradability \/ semi-automated upgrade paths for our existing WM 6 customers. We as well have created migration tools for our older legacy customers.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\n<em> \u201cSynQ functionality, services and crucial supporting processes are organized around three pillars: Collaboration Platform, Operational Services and Intelligence Services,<\/em>\u201d explains Tim Eick. <em>\u201cCollaboration Platform modules provide continuity no matter the level of automation the business has installed, while Operational Services deliver industry-standard processes and high-speed automation for maximum performance. Finally, Intelligent Services allow smart growth in a dynamically changing market.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\nExtendable \u201cDirectors\u201d as well as independent or integrated extendable \u201cManagers\u201d allow SynQ\u2019s integration with ERP or third party WMS software also\u00a0as new or existing material handling equipment. Directors and managers expose networked interfaces which facilitate embedding intelligence throughout the entire operation. The result is a synchronized flow of products and information across people, processes and equipment to enable new levels of<br \/>\nmaterial handling performance.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe capabilities of SynQ directly correspond with the direction Swisslog is headed as digitization and Industry 4.0 advances,\u201d<\/em> said Dr. Christian Baur, CEO of Swisslog\u2019s Warehouse and Distribution Solutions division. <em>\u201cTogether with the common functionality for warehousing and material flow control, the SynQ platform offers operational processes specific to our focus segments \u2013 E-commerce\/Retail, Automotive, Food &amp; Beverage and Pharmaceutical.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\nConcludes Dr. Baur: <em>\u201cIn today\u2019s competitive world, companies must be able to deliver the right orders to the right customers at the right time. As a full-service provider of automated intralogistics systems, Swisslog provides everything companies need to optimize logistics from planning through implementation and acting as a lifetime partner. We are looking forward to shaping the future of intralogistics through a new era of flexible, robotic and data-driven automated solutions that create exceptional customer value.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For more information visit:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.swisslog.com\">http:\/\/www.swisslog.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swisslog Warehouse &amp; Distribution Solutions, a leading automation expert for robot-based and data driven intralogistics solutions, is introducing SynQ, the next generation of our proven warehouse management software platform.
