Material Flow Control

The material flow control system implements partially or fully automated material flow operations. It coordinates, if necessary also optimizes, the sequence of tasks to be performed and controls the source-target relationships in which individual (transport) orders, processes, etc. are managed. Subordinate controls are addressed for this purpose. The material flow control can be an integrated module of a WMS or installed as a separate trade/system. A material flow control system takes over all tasks of the transport management, a special form of the transport management is the forklift guidance system.
