Automation Systems for Every Warehouse Challenge

Swisslog offers a modular, scalable range of warehouse automation systems — from compact goods-to-person picking to high-bay pallet warehouses. Each system is software-driven by SynQ, Swisslog's unified warehouse management platform.

AutoStore
Cube-Based ASRS · Small Parts & E-Commerce

AutoStore is the world's most space-efficient storage system for small parts, e-commerce and grocery. Compact cuboid robots travel on top of a grid of stacked bins — retrieving items at high speed with 99.9% accuracy. Uses 60% less floor space than conventional racking while delivering up to 300% throughput increase.

CarryPick
AMR-Based Goods-to-Person · Scalable Picking

CarryPick uses autonomous mobile robots to transport mobile rack units to ergonomic picking stations — bringing the goods to the picker rather than the picker to the goods. Faster and less expensive to implement than grid-based systems, with easy scalability for growing businesses. Complete installation in under 6 months.

SynQ — The Brain of Your Warehouse

SynQ is Swisslog's modular warehouse management platform — combining WMS, WES, WCS, ACS and MFS in a single software layer, backed by 500+ software experts and 100+ years of operational experience.

One Platform. Every Function.

Most warehouse software stacks require separate systems for warehouse management, equipment control, and automation control — creating integration complexity and data silos. SynQ unifies all functions in a single platform with a common toolset, real-time visibility from machine level to business level, and seamless ERP connectivity.

SynQ was chosen by Mondelēz International for their $130M national distribution centre in Australia — managing 56,100 pallet locations, 11 stacker cranes, and 22 monorail trolleys in a single unified system.

Real-Time Visibility — Machine to Business Level

SynQ captures data at the machine level while providing a holistic view of warehouse operations — from individual crane movements to daily throughput KPIs.

🔗

ERP & E-Commerce Integration

Connects directly to SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics and major e-commerce platforms — enabling order-driven warehouse operations with no manual data entry.

🤖

Unified Automation & Manual Operations

SynQ manages both automated systems (cranes, conveyors, robots) and manual operations (pick-by-voice, RF scanning) in a single platform — no separate systems required.

📈

Independent Business Intelligence

SynQ's BI tools suite enables warehouse operations to work smarter — with dashboards, KPI tracking and operational analytics built in, not bolted on.

🌱

Scalable & Future-Ready

Modular architecture means SynQ grows with your business — add new automation systems, new sites or new capabilities without replacing the core platform.
