SMART WAREHOUSE / BIG

Automated Storage System for High Material Volumes

As production volumes increase and supply chains become more complex, warehouse systems must scale accordingly.


The Smart Warehouse / Big is designed for manufacturing environments with high material throughput. It enables structured storage of large volumes and ensures continuous supply to production areas.


The system is based on a scalable racking infrastructure with fully automated loading and retrieval. If required, the material flow can be extended with autonomous transport systems. This reduces buffer zones, stabilizes processes, and shortens internal transport times.

Compact design enabled by high-density racking and advanced gripper technology


SMART WAREHOUSE / SMT REELS

Optimized Reel Storage for SMT Production

"Designed for manufacturing" – this principle drives the efficiency of modern SMT lines. But what about the storage systems that directly impact that efficiency?


The Smart Warehouse / SMT Reels is specifically developed for the requirements of electronics manufacturing. It enables structured storage and automated provisioning of SMT component reels – with the goal of reducing setup times, stabilizing workflows, and ensuring reliable material availability.


With integrated tracking and direct connection to existing SMT lines, the system seamlessly integrates into the Smart Electronics Factory.

TRANSFER & BUFFER STATIONS

Temporary Buffering for Flexible Production Processes

Buffer stations are a key element in production logistics when it comes to compensating for cycle time deviations, supply bottlenecks, or fluctuating demand.


CTS offers modular transfer and buffer solutions that act as temporary storage between warehouse, production line, and transport systems – helping to stabilize internal material flows.


With automated loading and unloading interfaces, these stations can be directly connected to AMR systems or manual transport units – without the need for additional handover processes.

AUTONOUS MOBILE ROBOTS

Transport Solutions for Flexible, Decoupled Production Environments

Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) handle repetitive transport tasks within production – reliably, flexibly, and without manual intervention.


They connect warehouses, buffers, and handover stations directly to the consumption points along the line, ensuring a continuous and synchronized material supply.

AMRs navigate freely in dynamic environments, adapt their routes in real time, and remain operational even as layouts change. By integrating AMRs, internal transport processes become standardized – relieving personnel from non-value-adding tasks.


CTS implements AMR solutions in collaboration with partners such as Omron, Agilox and MiR – vendor-neutral and tailored to your infrastructure. Existing systems can be integrated via modular interfaces.

sloXis – Middleware for Connected Material Supply

Seamless Integration of CTS Systems into Your Existing ERP or MES Setup

sloXis is not a new control layer – it’s an integration middleware that connects existing ERP, MES, WMS, and CTS systems to enable automated material flows across your factory.


The platform processes data such as order information, inventory levels, or machine statuses and translates it into actionable commands for CTS systems like storage units, buffer stations, or AMRs – from inbound logistics to precise line-side delivery. This enables demand-driven, real-time material handling without interfering with your core IT infrastructure.


Integration is vendor-agnostic and supported through standard interfaces or custom-developed connectors – making sloXis suitable for new and legacy production environments alike.
