Would you also like to have an overview of your conveyor technology and warehouse in your ProLeiT Plant IT?

  • Would you like more transparency in the area of your intralogistics?
  • Would you like to be able to see or even operate parts or all of your intralogistics in your MES?
  • Does your conveyor technology or your automated warehouse need to be expanded or modernised anyway?
  • Do you have procurement problems with the warehouse IT or automation technology?

Or would you simply like to improve your storage situation?

  • Do you want to replace your existing WMS? Is your aim the introduction of a new, modern WMS?
  • Or are you planning the integration into SAP EWM, SAP WM, SAP Stock Room or an ERP of another manufacturer?
  • Do you want pallets to be automatically scanned by gate scanners while loading them on the ramp?
  • Do you need to upgrade your safety technology?

Then it could prove useful for you to integrate your conveyor technology and your warehouse directly into ProLeiT Plant IT.

Warehouse and transport in ProLeiT Plant IT

As a ProLeiT system partner, we have been developing software for the intralogistics of production plants for over 20 years.

One of our core competencies is to integrate the intralogistics of a production plant directly into ProLeiT Plant IT.

This includes

  • Pallet conveyor technology
  • Container conveyor technology
  • Stacker cranes
  • Forklift control
  • Warehouse management for automated warehouses
  • Warehouse management for manual warehouses
  • Warehouse management with SAP EWM

We create software for new construction, expansion and modernisation and put it into operation.

Your plants do not have to be newly automated to reap the benefits of integrating your conveyor technology or warehouse in ProLeiT Plant IT. We also integrate existing plants into your ProLeiT Plant IT.

Contact us and we'll give you a

  • Free, non-binding initial analysis of your plant situation
  • Free, non-binding preparation of a rough modernisation concept
  • Free, non-binding preparation of an offer for modernisation

Within the scope of a project, we carry out the following for you:

  • Complete clarification and detailed planning with your specialist staff
  • Reengineering of automation and IT systems
  • Detailed planning of modernisation measures during simultaneous warehouse operation
  • Fine tuning of all work within ProLeiT Plant IT with your service provider
  • Creation of software for your conveyor technology and warehouse with integration in ProLeit Plant IT
  • Commissioning and start-up with daily fine tuning during operation
  • Service and support 24/7

Application areas

Typical application areas for our software solutions with ProLeiT Plant IT include

  • Pallet conveyor technology
  • Container conveyor technology
  • Production supply and disposal
  • Management of storage locations close to production
  • Final packaging
  • Palletising
  • Automated warehouses
  • Manual warehouses
  • Forklift control
  • Guidance of operating personnel via mobile devices
  • Order picking carts

Warehouse management and process management

Depending on the project goal, selected modules of the ProLeiT Plant IT process control system and our proven LOMAS 4.0 logistics management system are used in combination.

Warehouse stocks are managed either by our LOMAS WMS or by SAP EWM / SAP WM, by an AS/400-based ERP, by Microsoft Dynamics or an ERP of another manufacturer.

If SAP EWM is used, we automate your warehouse so that inventory management and transport specifications are managed exclusively in SAP EWM. We automate your stacker crane and conveyor technology and connect them to SAP EWM.

LOMAS WMS supports all common functions such as storage location management, materials management, load carrier management and inventory management. You can book materials directly to your shelf storage system as well as small load carriers on trays on pallets to the storage location. LOMAS WMS supports all common processes such as storage, relocation, retrieval and order picking. The best storage location is selected automatically based on extensive configuration options for warehouse, shelves and locations. For this, LOMAS WMS is fully integrated into ProLeiT Plant IT.

Using standard Plant IT interfaces, LOMAS WMS can directly exchange the managed stocks with SAP WM, SAP EWM and ERP of other manufacturers.

Transport management

Our transport management system LOMAS TMS coordinates all material flows within an operation for conveyor technology, stacker cranes, transverse transfer carriages, forklifts and hand pallet trucks.

The transport management system has an integrated material flow controller (MFC) and an integrated task management system. It can accept transfer orders from any source, e.g. from batch IT processes, Liqu IT step chains, SAP or an ERP of another manufacturer or any other control system from production via OPC, from a production employee via the LOMAS app on a smartphone or from a logistics specialist via a user interface on the screen in the warehouse or from his mobile tablet computer.

The process manager for just-in-time call-offs of picking orders for production supply also automatically generates transport orders.

Control technology

We supply the necessary automation technology (Siemens PLC S5, S7, TIA) and control software for container conveyor technology, pallet conveyor technology and for stacker cranes.

We check the existing safety technology and supplement it where necessary so that your plant meets the current requirements of the Machinery Directive.

If it is necessary to track the data with the load carriers, this is carried out in the control system or on the transport management system depending on the situation, or otherwise by labelling or using transponders. We bring scanners up to date.

On-site operation of the conveyor technology and stacker cranes is carried out by stationary or mobile operator panels (OP) such as those made by Siemens.

Our partner network

Our partners complement our delivery programme with the following services:

  • SAP consulting, SAP programming
  • Electrical planning, switch cabinet construction, assembly
  • Stacker cranes
  • Conveyor technology for pallets and containers
  • Sorting systems for outgoing and incoming shipments
  • Process engineering control for continuous and batch processes

The benefits for you

By integrating your intralogistics directly into ProLeiT Plant IT, you automatically benefit from

  • Transparency in your processes
  • Consistency in your data
  • Uniform operation
  • Reduction of engineering and operating costs in intralogistics
  • Reduction of IT system and operating costs
  • and thus a clear added value.

We create your conveyor technology software for you based on our tried and tested standard modules. These are based on the Plant IT class model and are projected directly in Plant IT configuration manager and the system displays are directly connected to them. This ensures reliable operation of your system right from the start.

Since intralogistics is a cross-cutting function within your company, we keep an eye on all the various arenas within an operation when developing integrated logistics management systems. LOMAS 4.0 not only contains a warehouse management system (WMS) but is also a platform for all logistics tasks of a production operation.

This is why our logistics management system LOMAS 4.0 is not only a good choice for your automated warehouse, but will also support you, for example, in the future management of your manual warehouses, the management of production-related storage locations or in transport tasks within your production.

LOMAS WMS is extremely flexible. For example, inventory management in the finished goods warehouse might be carried out by SAP EWM and the current stocks of production-related warehouses by LOMAS WMS.

You can also use the LOMAS TMS transport management system for production supply as well as for trips within production. With TAMAS, LOMAS TMS also contains a stacker control system for forklifts and hand pallet trucks.

You can also use the LOMAS task management system TAMAS simultaneously for your production. This way you can report fault messages and instructions directly to the smartphone of a team of workers or to an individual worker and automatically monitor implementation.
