The logistics industry involves consumer-related and operational challenges. Consumers want fast, low-cost delivery and the full availability of options, while warehouses experience labor scarcity, limited space, and the need to ensure accuracy.
These challenges can be solved with Omron’s wide-ranging automation technologies utilized in material handling systems, order-picking, AS/RS, traceability solutions and much more.
Space is paramount in logistics, especially for companies located in urban areas. Allocating space for new equipment is expensive, and SKU shuffling due to seasonal demand requires time-consuming warehouse restructuring on a regular basis.
Omron can help you automate without adding floor space and make your operations more flexible overall with mobile robots, collaborative robots and more.
How Omron can help:
Warehousing equipment can be expensive to maintain, and downtime can drive up costs even further. Fortunately, new technologies offering 24/7 condition monitoring in real-time lower overall costs while improving quality.
Omron’s control and IIoT solutions keep operators aware of machine status and performance, while decision-making at the machine level instead of in the cloud eliminates security concerns.
How Omron can help:
Customers expect things faster, and they don’t have the patience for warehouse errors that give them the wrong product. Real-time traceability and automated inspection solutions provide a highly effective way to speed up delivery and ensure accuracy.
Omron offers barcode reading, RFID, robust sensing and advanced vision technologies to help you meet the ever-increasing expectations of your customers without wasting space.
How Omron can help:
Even though products aren’t actually being made in a logistics facility, that doesn’t mean there are no hazards. Warehouse workers can suffer serious injuries from collisions and repetitive tasks if not properly protected.
As your trusted partner in safety, Omron is committed to building safety into every product and solution. We also provide comprehensive risk assessments courtesy of our safety experts.

Materials transport can be extremely complex and laborious. Tasking human workers with these activities is cumbersome and inefficient, but there have historically been many barriers to automating materials transport needs.
The Omron autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), which include the LD and HD families, overcome these obstacles through innovative software that lets them self-navigate throughout dynamic environments along the shortest viable pathway to their destination.
Traditional maintenance takes place at scheduled intervals and requires skilled workers to complete time-consuming manual processes. Problems arising between inspection dates may go unnoticed, and companies may replace equipment prematurely.
To ensure that your conveyors run smoothly, take advantage of Omron’s predictive maintenance technologies that evaluate equipment condition through continuous monitoring.
