Automation in intralogistics requires more than advanced technology. Companies depend on systems that operate reliably for decades while maintaining high availability and operational security. At LogiMAT 2026 in Stuttgart, Westfalia Technologies demonstrates how decades of experience, innovative storage technologies, and comprehensive system integration create dependable automated warehouse solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more than 55 years of expertise in automated storage systems, the company presents technologies and concepts designed to deliver long-term performance, operational stability, and sustainable logistics growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over Five Decades of Experience in Automated Storage Systems<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Westfalia Technologies, headquartered in Borgholzhausen, Germany, has built a strong reputation as a specialist in automated warehouse solutions. Over the past decades, the company has implemented numerous large-scale logistics projects across different industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examples include advanced in-house warehouse systems for the Austrian wood specialist Theurl, capacity and efficiency expansions for food manufacturers such as Z\u00fcger Frischk\u00e4se AG, and major logistics infrastructure projects like the automated system for the world\u2019s largest heavy-duty corrugated board plant at TRICOR\u2019s site in Goch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These projects demonstrate Westfalia\u2019s ability to design and implement highly specialized automation solutions tailored to complex industrial requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reliable Growth Through Strong Customer Partnerships<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Westfalia continues to experience strong business growth, with double-digit revenue increases reported for the third consecutive year. According to Managing Partner Andreas Gartemann, the company is expanding across all business units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A large portion of new business comes from modernization projects, capacity expansions, and new installations for long-standing customers. This trend reflects the company\u2019s focus on long-term partnerships and dependable system performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By prioritizing system reliability, operational stability, and customer satisfaction, Westfalia positions itself as a trusted automation partner for complex intralogistics environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Integrated System Solutions for Maximum Performance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Westfalia operates as a general contractor, system manufacturer, and integrator, delivering complete intralogistics systems that combine multiple technologies into a unified solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These systems integrate advanced warehouse technology, electromechanical components, control systems, and software platforms. Many key components are developed and manufactured in-house, allowing Westfalia to maintain high quality standards and ensure seamless system integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The resulting solutions are tailored to specific operational needs, supporting various products, load carriers, temperature zones, and industry-specific requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Focus on Safety, Data Security, and Operational Stability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Safety and reliability are central design principles for Westfalia\u2019s automated warehouse systems. Through robust technologies and continuous system monitoring, the company ensures high availability and operational security over long periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reducing system interfaces helps minimize potential failure points and improves overall system stability. In addition, Westfalia is preparing its systems to comply with the new EU Machinery Regulation that will come into force in January 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company also addresses growing cybersecurity requirements under the EU NIS 2 directive. Through the use of secure backup strategies and cloud-based solutions such as the terra Cloud from the WORTMANN Group, customers can protect and restore critical operational data efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Satellite Storage Technology Maximizes Warehouse Capacity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of Westfalia\u2019s most established technologies is its Satellite\u00ae storage system, first developed in 1981. This solution has become a benchmark for high-density deep-lane storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Satellite technology allows companies to maximize storage capacity while minimizing the space required for aisles and handling operations. The system reduces setup times, logistics costs, and operational complexity while maintaining high process reliability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special rail profiles and satellite vehicles ensure smooth, material-friendly storage operations, enabling fast and efficient movement of goods within the warehouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Savanna.NET\u00ae Software Optimizes Warehouse Execution<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Westfalia\u2019s Warehouse Execution System (WES) Savanna.NET\u00ae plays a key role in managing automated logistics processes. The platform can control material flow and warehouse operations across manual, semi-automated, and fully automated storage areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By coordinating inventory management and system operations, the software helps ensure precise and error-free order fulfillment. This digital integration improves transparency and allows operators to optimize logistics performance in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The software can be deployed either for specific operational areas or across entire warehouse infrastructures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable Logistics and Energy Efficiency<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability is another major focus of Westfalia\u2019s warehouse solutions. Consolidating warehouse locations and optimizing logistics processes helps reduce truck mileage, returns, and overall CO\u2082 emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern drive technologies, energy recovery systems, and intelligent energy management reduce power consumption across automated storage operations. In addition, automated high-bay warehouses often require less cooled space per storage location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large building surfaces also create opportunities for integrating photovoltaic systems, enabling companies to generate renewable energy directly at their logistics facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modernization and Lifecycle Services for Existing Systems<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In addition to building new automated warehouses, Westfalia also modernizes existing logistics systems. Through targeted upgrades and expansions, older installations can be adapted to current technological standards while maintaining operational continuity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company\u2019s new \u201cS\u201d class storage and retrieval machines enable efficient replacement of older equipment without requiring complete system redesign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comprehensive lifecycle services\u2014including predictive maintenance, spare parts planning, safety inspections, and training\u2014help extend system lifespan while maintaining full operational efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI-Based Robotics and Advanced Service Solutions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Westfalia continues to expand its service portfolio with new technologies and maintenance solutions. Additional services now include electrical cabinet cleaning, rail grinding, and thermal imaging analysis for detailed condition monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through its collaboration with Terra Robotics, part of the WORTMANN Group, Westfalia will also introduce AI-powered warehouse cleaning solutions. Terra Robotics will present these systems at LogiMAT 2026 in Hall 8, while the technology will also be demonstrated at the Westfalia booth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These innovations highlight the company\u2019s commitment to supporting customers throughout the entire lifecycle of automated warehouse systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experience Westfalia at LogiMAT 2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Visitors to LogiMAT 2026 can learn more about Westfalia\u2019s automation technologies and integrated intralogistics solutions at Booth C20 in Hall 1. The exhibition provides an opportunity to explore how advanced storage systems, digital platforms, and reliable engineering expertise combine to create efficient and sustainable warehouse operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For companies seeking long-term automation partners, Westfalia demonstrates how reliable technology and continuous innovation can transform intralogistics into a secure foundation for future growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
