Manufacturing
Efficient material flow solutions for production logistics
As a manufacturer, you are continually focused on reducing production and distribution costs, shortening process times, minimizing operational risk, and improving workplace safety.
Automated solutions address the specific demands of the production environment by optimizing floor space utilization, supporting just-in-time strategies, balancing and sequencing material flow, improving labor ergonomics, and ensuring high system availability.
What are current material handling and logistics challenges for manufacturers?
Sustainable and energy‑efficient manufacturing
Manufacturers are under pressure to reduce waste, improve energy efficiency, and meet evolving sustainability expectations while remaining profitable. This includes reusing existing facilities, managing reusable containers, and balancing rising energy demand.
Global supply chain and sourcing strategy
Manufacturers are rethinking where and how products are made to better manage risk, protect intellectual property, and stay close to customers. Shifts in sourcing, regional production, and aftermarket distribution require flexible operations that can adapt to changing trade conditions and market demand.
Integrated production and distribution flow
Maintaining smooth production depends on the timely flow of materials across manufacturing, storage, and distribution. Manufacturers must integrate systems, harmonize data, and anticipate downstream demand to avoid delays.
Digitalization and technology adoption
As manufacturers adopt more connected and service‑oriented operating models, data and system integration become critical. Planning, monitoring, and maintenance require reliable information and visibility across operations.
Benefits of automation for your type of manufacturing company
All manufacturing companies share certain challenges, but some are unique to each segment. Automation provides solutions:
Explore a few Dematic technologies for manufacturing operations
Manufacturing operations require reliable, well‑coordinated material flow across production, storage, and distribution. Core workflow technologies such as Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS), conveyors, palletizing, goods‑to‑person workstations, and intelligent software help ensure materials are available when needed and inventory remains under control.
These modular solutions allow manufacturers to deploy automation where it delivers the most value and expand over time as production requirements evolve. Working together, they support efficient use of space, consistent throughput, and stable operations across complex manufacturing environments.
AS/RS solutions automate the storage and retrieval of materials and finished goods within manufacturing operations. High‑density designs improve space utilization while system‑directed movement supports accurate inventory access. By reducing manual handling and supporting orderly material flow, AS/RS solutions help manufacturing operations improve throughput and maintain consistent performance.
Automated conveyor systems support steady material flow across manufacturing environments. Conveyors transport cartons, totes, and cases between production, storage, and shipping areas. Automated movement reduces manual handling and helps synchronize workflows. Modular designs adapt as layouts or production volumes change, supporting continuous operation.
Palletizing and depalletizing solutions help manufacturing operations automate repetitive case handling and pallet build activities. Automated and ergonomic systems reduce manual effort while supporting a range of packaging types. Modular designs adapt as production volumes and product mix change, helping maintain stable throughput and safe operations.
Goods‑to‑person workstations support fast, accurate processing of parts and components in manufacturing operations. Items are delivered directly to ergonomic workstations, reducing travel and improving accuracy. Intelligent software synchronizes tasks in real time. Modular workstation designs scale as production volumes fluctuate.
