MOVIKIT® software modules DriveRadar® SmartDataCollector
Smart and energy-efficient solutions for your warehouse logistics

Getting goods from A to B automatically

Pallet warehouses or small parts stores, fast or slow, light or heavy – our drive technology and automation solutions for SRSs are designed to meet your precise requirements. A big bonus is the fact that our carefully thought-out drive solutions improve your system's energy efficiency.

Our perfectly coordinated MOVIKIT® software modules enable safe, dynamic, and virtually vibration-free movement of SRSs, which significantly reduces cycle and startup times.

Our automation solutions ensure the energy produced in generator mode can be temporarily stored and then used for the next travel cycle. Keeping load peaks to a minimum and bridging voltage dips in this way substantially lowers energy consumption. All this boosts the energy efficiency and availability of your system.

Modular drive systems are a key success factor for storage/retrieval systems that are used to put pallets, heavy loads, and small parts into storage and then take them out again later. Among other things, they significantly reduce startup times. Our perfectly coordinated MOVIKIT® software modules help ensure the safe, dynamic, and virtually vibration-free movement of SRSs. What's more, our automation solutions can temporarily store energy produced in generator mode and use it for the next travel cycle. This keeps load peaks to a minimum, bridges voltage dips, and significantly lowers your energy consumption, thereby boosting the energy efficiency and availability of your system.

One-stop-shop for every automation task

With its MOVI-C® modular automation system, SEW-EURODRIVE offers the ideal solution for digital integration. The integrated portfolio of ultramodern hardware and software is efficient, user-friendly, sustainable, and perfectly coordinated. The MOVI-C® modular automation system is the end-to-end solution for energy recovery, energy storage, and braking resistance.

Safety first

Protection of personnel is an important aspect of warehouse logistics. The integrated safety technology of our automation solutions for SRSs meets the tougher system safety requirements of the type C standard EN 528:

  • Setup mode
    If people are carrying out troubleshooting or maintenance work in aisles, it is still possible to move a storage/retrieval system using the Safely Limited Position (SLP) function.
  • Safe end of the aisle
    We offer flexible solutions to ensure storage/retrieval systems stop safely at the end of the aisle, removing the need for a hydraulic buffer or other mechanical sensors along the route. You always benefit from the same very short response time, regardless of how many safety functions are activated. That gives you planning certainty and results in very short safety distances. The safety technology integrated into the inverter makes the functional safety acceptance test at the end of startup much more straightforward.

Intelligent power and energy management system

With Power and Energy Solutions – our smart power supply and energy management system – the energy produced in generator mode can be temporarily stored and then used for the next travel cycle. That not only saves energy and cuts costs, but also ensures increased system availability. After all, this solution significantly reduces load peaks in the power grid, and also bridges supply fluctuations and voltage dips.

With Power and Energy Solutions, you enjoy multiple benefits:

  • Up to 40% lower energy consumption thanks to storage solutions
  • Using storage capacitors in the DC link reduces power peaks from the supply system by a factor of between 7 and 10
  • Intelligent power failure management
  • Block or sinusoidal energy recovery using the latest technology

TV to visit our trade fair stand

Dhf Intralogistik TV was at our stand at the world's most important intralogistics trade fair LogiMAT 2024. The film team was interested in our exhibition program and talked to our market manager Udo Marmann about various exhibits. In this video, you will learn about the added value that we offer you with our solutions for storage/retrieval systems and sorters.

Find out more about our sorter solutions.

The software module for storage/retrieval systems and the solutions for sorters are products of the year 2024

The MOVI-C® modular automation system is the ideal solution for future-oriented and innovative concepts because this modular system is efficient, user-friendly and sustainable. Readers from Industrial Production and Material Flow have also confirmed this. The MOVIKIT® CombiTelescope software module was voted the winner in the "Drive Technology and Automation" category at Industrial Production. Our solutions for sorting systems took first place in material flow.

Due to their high level of automation, storage and retrieval systems play a big part in determining a plant's material throughput. That's why safeguarding the system availability of these complex applications is especially important.
