The paper discusses the evolving landscape of production logistics in manufacturing, driven by increasing digitalization and changing consumer expectations. It highlights the shift towards flexible, automated, and transparent “Smart Factories” where machines, sensors, and humans are interconnected.
Key topics include adapting to changing consumer demands, integrating production and intralogistics, enabling flexible manufacturing, and using identification solutions like RFID, laser scanners, and image-based code readers. The paper also touches on robot vision, automated material transport, and digitalization for enhanced efficiency. The goal is to create interconnected systems where machines, sensors, and humans communicate to optimize production and logistics processes.
