INTRALOGISTICS
Future-oriented concepts for automation and material flow

Our head office, BSS Bohnenberg GmbH, is based in Solingen (also known as the “City of Blades”), with other offices located in Thuringia and Poland. From new construction to upgrades and extensions for existing plants and systems, we offer the full spectrum from one source. With our competence in automation, we help customers who want to set the course for the future in their production chain. Where the variety of goods is constantly on the increase and expectations in terms of speed and availability are constantly rising, our solutions provide the basis for higher productivity and consistently high quality – and thereby for high profitability and efficiency.

SAP-Integration
The use of SAP as a storage management and material flow system is becoming increasingly important. And with it, the interest of many companies, primarily from the mid-sized sector, in fully integrated ERP-WMS landscapes, especially in the form of SAP-EWM/MFS, is growing too. Since 2005, BSS has been a pioneer in intralogistics for direct links between SAP and the subordinate control level (PLC). Together with our partner IOT GmbH, we offer complete WMS-MFC solutions under SAP for our automatic storage systems.
