“To get the most out of automation and robotics we are increasingly reliant on data andinterconnectivity,” said Tim Eick, VP of software and controls development at Swisslog. “It’s what is driving Industry 4.0 forward and allows users to deliver on promises to customers in the smartest way possible.”

Swisslog is making migration tools available to older legacy customers that wish to upgrade to SynQ, added Eick.

“The capabilities of SynQ directly correspond with the direction Swisslog is headed as digitization and Industry 4.0 advances,” commented Dr. Christian Baur, CEO of Swisslog’s warehouse and distribution solutions division.

SynQ will service clients in four main industries – e-commerce and retail, automotive, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals.
