Smartlogistix is a specialized partner for the paper and tissue industry, offering modular and scalable automation solutions. By integrating hardware and digital systems, it ensures a continuous, efficient and traceable production flow from raw materials to finished products.
Intralogistics in paper and tissue production
Paper and tissue production faces unique logistical challenges: handling bulky rolls with care to avoid damage, ensuring proper orientation, pressure and timing. Complex production cycles demand flawless synchronization, while space optimization, cost reduction and operator safety add further complexity.
AGVs and AMRs
One of the key technologies in the Smartlogistix portfolio is the wide range of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs). These systems, which are entirely designed, built, and engineered in-house, enable the precise and safe transport of coils and other materials between different departments within the plant, removing the need for manual intervention or the use of slower and less secure traditional means.
The AGVs and AMRs designed by Smartlogistix are customized according to the size, weight and delicacy of the materials to be handled, and can operate even in complex, crowded environments or those shared with personnel, thanks to advanced obstacle detection and internal traffic management systems.
Integrated management software
Alongside hardware solutions, the real added value of Smartlogistix automation lies in its proprietary software systems, which orchestrate and monitor every stage of logistics.
The modules of the Smart_Factory ecosystem, based on an open and modular platform, can be used to manage all company movement flows. Smart_MES allows communication with the company’s ERP and manages every stage of production, from planning to control, right down to basic sensor technology.
With the Smart_Logistix suite, movements can be scheduled according to current production, priorities managed in real time, and valuable data collected for analysis and continuous improvement.
Every roll or pallet is fully tracked along its journey – from production to storage and shipping – ensuring transparency and reducing errors.
Thanks to automatic identification and the Hyperstrator module with real-time monitoring and 3D visualization, processes become more reliable and responsive to customer and quality requirements.
Automatic vertical warehouses
Smartlogistix provides high-performance automated warehouses, ideal for compact storage and quick access in the paper and tissue industry. By exploiting factory height, they reduce footprint and improve ergonomics. Integrated software enables automatic picking based on production or orders, boosting plant responsiveness.
Headquarters in the heart of the paper district
Smartlogistix is finalizing a new headquarters in the Lucca paper district, in Via del Centenario, Porcari. The modern 8,000 m² production and 1,500 m² office facility will mark a strategic step, enabling faster support to paper and tissue mills.
Conclusion
Smartlogistix builds on the real needs of the paper and tissue industry with modular, flexible and connected solutions.
From warehouse management to flow automation and traceability, its technologies integrate with existing plants and adapt to diverse contexts. Investing in intelligent logistics boosts competitiveness, safety and sustainability, making Smartlogistix the ideal partner for this industrial evolution.
