Product overviewA modular Warehouse Control System (WaCS) that manages and supervises automated and robotic intralogistics flows in real time. WaCS executes WMS orders on the shop floor, handling scheduling, synchronization and routing to optimize equipment usage and maintain continuous flows without manual re-entry.
Standard uses- Goods-to-person — management of retail picking stations and full picking/palletisation buffer solutions.
- Person-to-goods — control of station picking systems and mobile picking assistance robots.
- Pallet storage — comprehensive control of automated storage systems for heavy loads.
OrchestrationReal-time scheduling and synchronization of automated flows: WaCS prioritizes urgent orders according to carrier departure constraints and installation status, sequences priority picking, executes picking and replenishment tasks, and balances workload across equipment to maintain optimal throughput.
Management / ConnectivityWide technology compatibility: WaCS interfaces directly with the WMS and connects to shuttles, robots, stacker cranes, conveyors, mobile robots and other automated equipment. It provides continuous supply to picking, palletization and replenishment stations and is designed as a modular, open solution for phased integration.
Cockpit / SupervisionReal-time supervision module offering an overview of the installation: activity and assignment monitoring, zone and equipment views, direct access to automated storage stock status and a set of predefined KPIs for performance analysis.
Key benefits- Efficiency — reduced overall picking time.
- Multi-process management — simultaneous control of person-to-goods and goods-to-person processes.
- Performance — lower error rates and improved service levels.
- Real-time visibility — continuous monitoring of operational progress and system status.
- Continuous optimization — adaptive management based on expected performance.
- Modularity — phased addition of equipment and features as needs evolve.
Additional product notesWaCS can be deployed gradually and scaled with the site. It offers load balancing, urgent order prioritization, continuous feeding of preparation stations and monitoring tools with performance indicators to improve responsiveness to transport constraints.
