Case Study: Exploration Roadshow for an International Electronics Manufacturer

For a leading electronics manufacturer, we evaluated several European production sites to analyze the automation potential in intralogistics. Our goal was to assess the conditions for the deployment of mobile robots and provide recommendations for optimizing processes.

Evaluation of Automation Potential for an International Electronics Manufacturer

As part of an exploration roadshow, we analyzed several European production sites of an international electronics manufacturer, all of which had minimal automation in their intralogistics. Our goal was to assess the potential for mobile robotics at these sites and identify the prerequisites for successful implementation. A particular challenge was considering the different wage structures in the various countries.

1. Process Workshops & Site Visits

At multiple sites, we conducted process workshops to capture the specific requirements and constraints of the intralogistics processes.

2. Selection of Processes & Technologies

We designed more than six technical concepts, evaluating them for both technical feasibility and economic factors.

3. Maximum Automation Vision per Site

For each plant, we developed a concept for the maximum automation of intralogistics to drive long-term efficiency improvements.

4. Development of a Robotics Roadmap

We created recommendations for the next steps at both the site level and for the company as a whole to pave the way for automation.

Key Takeaways for the Client

During the exploration roadshow, valuable insights were gained that helped the client make the right decisions for their automation strategy. Here are the three key takeaways that made the project successful.

Automation Potential Varies by Site

Each site had different conditions, requiring a tailored solution and an individualized approach.

Flexible Technology Selection for Maximum Efficiency

Through targeted technology recommendations, the client was able to ensure that each automation solution perfectly matched the specific requirements of each site.

Gradual Implementation with a Clear Roadmap

With a clearly defined roadmap for each site and the entire company, the client was able to gradually implement automation and plan for long-term success.
