Logistics Software
Axiom designed software solutions automate warehouses for maximum productivity and increased efficiency.
Looking for complete logistics automation?
From the earliest projects, Axiom has supplied the complete turnkey package of hardware, control and software from internal resources. Crucially, this means we do not have to rely on third-party contractors.
Effective logistics software is fundamental to the success of any warehouse automation project. In our experience, warehouses are organic, living things that evolve to meet the challenges thrown down by daily business. While they are designed to maximise efficiency, problems faced by the warehouse operations team can be exacerbated by poorly designed and implemented software systems.
Any modern installation has to be capable of interfacing with many sources of data and have the ability to both import and export data to create reports as required.
Control Glossary
Warehouse Management System (WMS):
Normally supplied by the customer and runs the warehouse, wave picks and is the source of data to the supplied to the WCS / WES).
Warehouse Control (Execution) System (WCS / WES):
Supplied as part of the materials handling automation by Axiom. Takes the data from the WMS and acts as the interface between the two systems.
Dimensioning; Weighing & Scanning (DWS):
Each element can be used separately or in any combination and comprise cutting edge technology. Ability to be used at dynamic speeds of >100 packages per minute.
- Dimensioning: Non-contact laser scanners have the ability to measure the volume of the packages.
- Weighing: Precision load cells dynamically weigh the package.
- Scanning: Modern vision systems allow the reading of multiple codes attached to a package, the AI based software identifies the relevant code to record.
