Warehouse Planning

Logistics planning: Klinkhammer focuses on artificial intelligence and simulation

17. September 2026, 08:46 Uhr

The intralogistics system integrator Klinkhammer Intralogistics is hosting its Logistics Planning Day on November 10 at the DB Museum in Nuremberg. The focus is on the planning of manual to robot-controlled warehouses as well as the use of artificial intelligence and simulation. According to the company, practical examples will show how companies proceed from site planning to the development of a warehouse concept to implementation.

Representatives from Förch, Raps, Martin Bauer, and Korrodin present examples from operational practice at the event. The projects cover different phases of logistics planning, ranging from site planning to the development of the warehouse concept to implementation.

The event is specifically aimed at decision-makers, operations managers, and logistics managers. By using implemented projects, the participants are expected to share experiences from planning and automation projects and address challenges in their implementation.

Artificial Intelligence and Simulation in Planning

In his keynote on "Modern Tools for Efficient Logistics Planning," Prof. Dr.-Ing. Johannes Fottner from the Technical University of Munich discusses how AI and simulation are changing the planning process. Werner Spiegl from Astrum IT and Dirk Liekenbrock from Klinkhammer Intralogistics also describe the importance of AI and shed light on the topic "Getting More Out of Logistics Planning: Practical Examples, Economic Efficiency, and the Benefits of AI."

Selection of Suitable Warehouse Technology

Another topic is the selection of suitable warehouse and picking systems. The background is the multitude of different technical solutions for storage and picking. In the planning process, according to the organizer, technical solutions need to be adapted to the specific requirements of a company and economic considerations should be included.

Klinkhammer focuses on a manufacturer-neutral planning approach. The event aims to convey different approaches and experiences from implementation through specific planning and automation projects. “Successful warehouse logistics do not start with the selection of technology but with manufacturer-independent planning. Only when locations, processes, requirements, and economic goals are considered holistically from the outset, do future-proof and efficient solutions emerge,” explains Frank Klinkhammer, Managing Director of Klinkhammer Intralogistics GmbH.
