Award goes to Achern
Kasto is a place for Industry 4.0
Sawing and storage technology specialist Kasto was honored in the "100 Places for Industry 4.0 in Baden-Württemberg" competition - as one of only 13 companies in the state. The in-house cassette warehouse controlled by the Kastologic Warehouse Management System (WMS) impressed the jury.
"Congratulations to Kasto Maschinenbau GmbH & Co. KG for this outstanding achievement in being named one of the 100 places for Industry 4.0 in Baden-Württemberg." With these words, Karin Schütze, State Secretary in the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labor and Housing in Baden-Württemberg, congratulates the saw and storage technology specialist Kasto from Achern. The company from Baden won over the competition jury with its intelligent, AI-based warehouse management system Kastologic. It controls the fully automated Unicompact cassette storage system, which provides the materials required for production unmanned. A total of 13 digitalization solutions in the production environment that companies and facilities implement in their day-to-day operations were awarded prizes.
With this competition, the "Allianz Industrie 4.0 Baden-Württemberg" is looking for innovative concepts from industry that are successful with the intelligent networking of production and value creation processes. In addition to the degree of innovation, the expert jury also evaluates the concrete practical relevance for Industry 4.0. With the current focus on "Artificial Intelligence", the competition honors solutions that have already found their way into corporate practice. AI-based technologies and applications offer companies the opportunity to offer new products and services on the market as well as to implement developed solutions in their own processes. "The award is intended to make innovative solutions from the country that create added value even better known," explains Schütz. "It offers Industry 4.0 pioneers the chance to have their achievements recognized and other companies a broad base of use cases for inspiration."
