Good hardware. With a brain.

The Warehouse Control System (WCS) is the brain of any automated system, orchestrating physical equipment and ensuring communication with management systems. Without it, you have expensive metal that doesn't talk.

Two components, one layer

WCS plus the integration that connects it.

We build the WCS that orchestrates the physical equipment and handle the integration with your IT systems — your WMS, ERP and BI tools. Two projects, one partner.

Component 01

WCS — the brain of the automated warehouse

The WCS coordinates all automation equipment in real time: sorters, conveyors, AS/RS, AGVs. Full visibility, centralized control, zero downtime.

  • Real-time control of every motor and sensor
  • SCADA-like interface for operators and supervisors
  • Compatible with Interroll MultiControl, Siemens, B&R
  • Alarms and automatic diagnostics with full history
  • Scalable — start with one line, add modules without restart

Component 02

Integration WCS — WMS — ERP

Physical automation reaches its full potential only when connected to your operation's IT systems. We integrate the WCS with any WMS (SAP EWM, Manhattan, Infor, Körber etc.) and with your ERP.

  • SAP EWM, Manhattan, Infor, Körber connectors
  • ERP integration — SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite
  • REST / SOAP / OPC UA / IDoc — all standard protocols
  • BI: export to Power BI, Tableau, Grafana
  • Security — VPN, AD authentication, audit trail

The digital layer, visualized

How it all stacks in the warehouse.

Top to bottom: the commercial order enters via ERP, the WMS turns it into an execution task, the WCS orchestrates the equipment, and the PLCs and sensors do the physical movement.

Layer 5 · Business
ERP · Business Intelligence
SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, NetSuite — customer orders, stock, financials.
Layer 4 · Management
WMS — Warehouse Management
SAP EWM, Manhattan, Infor, Körber — locations, pick orders, planning.
Layer 3 · Control
WCS ZEDlog
Orchestrates sorters, conveyors, AS/RS — in real time.
Layer 2 · Automation
PLC · Interroll MultiControl
Execution logic per zone — motor start/stop, sensor reads.
Layer 1 · Field
Motors · sensors · scanners
RollerDrive, encoders, photocells, barcode scanners — the physical layer.
