SCHERDEL, a global automotive supplier headquartered in Marktredwitz, Germany, has begun deploying the SAP S/4HANA system including an EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) module at its 20+ plants worldwide. Unusually, it has chosen collaboration between two IT providers that are supplementing each other on the deployment projects. Thanks to its ready-made Aimtec SCIx mobile solution, the Pilsen-based supplier Aimtec can adapt the SAP S/4HANA system delivered by All for One Group to make users’ work on the shop floor easier, faster and friendlier. The deployment of this robust information system truly goes down to the tiniest details. A pilot project in Chemnitz, Germany successfully went into operation in April of this year.

DŘEVO TRUST, a Czech wholesaler of wooden products and materials, has decided for a new collaboration with Aimtec. This project for a central hardware and slats warehouse ties in to the successful automation of the company’s flat-materials warehouse in Lipník nad Bečvou in 2019. The newly added hall was equipped with modern technologies in the form of a Kardex vertical storage system, a STILL VNA truck and a Körber ASRS. Communication with these and control of each warehouse element is handled by the Aimtec DCIx digitalisation platform. The result is increased warehouse productivity and the ability for DŘEVO TRUST to offer a broader selection to their customers.

How can you ride into the fast lane of the digitalisation highway and keep up with new trends in logistics while also keeping a clear head? The speakers at the 23rd Trends in Automotive Logistics conference, held in Pilsen, Czech Republic, on 18 June 2024, and organised by Aimtec in cooperation with the German-Czech Chamber of Industry and Commerce and the Regensburg Chamber of Industry and Commerce, presented their recipes for achieving these goals. Attendees could hear their thoughts on digital transformation of supply chains, experience from industrial practice and tips on maintaining digital well-being.
