Company recognized for its SynQ Software VR Training App at Seamless Middle East 2020
Swisslog recently won the prestigious award at Seamless Middle East in the category best Digital Transformation & Innovation Solution of the Year for its SynQ Warehouse Management Software (WMS) Application: Virtual Reality Training Manager.
The announcement was done as part of 2020 Seamless Awards, which coincides with Seamless trade expo and took place virtually this year.
SynQ stands for Synchronized Intelligence and is a modular, service-oriented software platform for warehouse management and material flow orchestration. It provides precise functionality needed to optimize warehouse operations.
The Virtual Reality Training Manager has been implemented to overcome the on-the-job training required for pickers within a warehouse environment by moving the training process into a virtual world.
“Ready-to-use innovation is the backbone of our operations, and the Seamless award is a testament of our commitment to continuously innovate competitive technology to meet the demand of today’s omni-channel storage and distribution,” explained Alain Kaddoum, General Manager, Swisslog Middle East.
Picking and palletizing is one of the most time-consuming processes and accounts for up to 60% of the operational costs in warehouses and distribution centres. The Swisslog VR Training Manager application introduces a new approach to training for CarryPick solutions, which increases the efficiency of workers in warehouse picking operations.
The Swisslog Virtual Reality Training Manager provides two additional key advantages to customers who are either just starting with SynQ as their WMS solution, or for existing SynQ customers who have new or seasonal staff that need to be onboarded quickly into a live warehouse environment, a press communiqué concluded.
