The eighth edition of LogiMat, the international trade fair for Distribution, Materials Handling and Information Flow, will take place in Stuttgart Germany from March 2 to 4. The show offers a unique opportunity to meet with and evaluate companies that operate in the world of logistics and supply chain solutions. Germany is the largest market for logistics in Europe, followed by France, UK, Spain, and Italy.
Itworks will be exhibiting at the trade fair together with their German partner Rodata. Rodata has distributed vo-CE software since 2008 and is specialized in hardware and software solutions for mobile computing and RFID applications.
Over 700 companies from 17 countries will be exhibiting at LogiMAT, offering a wide overview of the solutions for intralogistics, the rationalization and optimization of material and information flow within the company.
The trade fair is located at the new Stuttgart exhibition centre only 200 meters from the airport, and the timing is ideal. At the start of the year international exhibitors will be presenting innovative technologies, products, systems and solutions for cost-optimisation of in-company logistics processes.
“We believe that LogiMAT is the most significant industry show in Europe,” says Maurizio Minossi, CEO of Itworks, “not only in terms of the quality of the visitors but also the excellent organization and the fact that the show hosts visitors from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Benelux and Eastern Europe.”
In difficult financial times, investment in voice technology is essential due to the fact that picking errors can be reduced from 70 to 90% and productivity can increase by up to 30%.
In addition, Itwork’s software vo-CE minimizes the cost of integration since it connects directly with the WMS without any need for middleware. The vo-CE solution wedges directly between the server and client software on the terminal, which is a normal pda.Net device equipped with conventional headphones or earphones.
There are over 2000 active users of Itworks vo-CE in Europe today and the system can be customized in more than 15 languages. The solution is ideal for companies with intensive picking activities because workers pick the product faster since their hands and eyes are no longer focused on a list displayed on the terminal screen or printed on paper.
Leading companies in the food, pharmaceutical and retail industries have already successfully implemented Itworks vo-CE in their warehouses.
