Unified sorter·conveyor·AMR monitoring with real-time throughput visibility

Unify OT data from sorters, conveyors, cranes, and AMRs across logistics centers and warehouses on one platform, monitoring throughput and equipment health in real time. Proven with the Samsung Electronics logistics-center OT platform build-out.

A stop in a logistics center means a missed shipment. Collect the signals scattered across the equipment stack (equipment → WCS → WES → WMS) on one standard, and watch hourly sort rates, merge queues, and equipment state on one screen — the approach proven at Samsung Electronics' logistics center.

A Challenges

01

Sorter, conveyor, and AMR data siloed across vendors

02

No real-time view of hourly throughput and congestion points

03

Line stops from sudden drive-unit failures (motors, rollers, belts)

04

A gap between WMS/WCS plans and floor equipment data

B How PlantPulse helps

Unified logistics collection

Sorters, conveyors, AS/RS, and AMRs collected and standardized over 42 protocol drivers.

Real-time throughput monitoring

Hourly sort rates, chute jams, merge queues, and availability aggregated straight from equipment signals to expose congestion instantly.

Drive-unit predictive maintenance

Baselines learned on motor, roller, and belt current and vibration series catch bearing wear and belt slip early.

Unified web monitoring

Zone-by-zone screens consolidated on one web SCADA canvas, published to control rooms and floor TVs.

WMS · WCS integration

Two-way integration with upper systems over REST APIs and an event bus links plans to floor execution.

Automatic alarm delivery

Stops, congestion, and anomaly thresholds watched by stream alarms, delivered instantly by email, SMS, and push.

C Where it applies

Electronics logistics center

Sorters, conveyors, and other logistics equipment unified on a single OT data platform.

Samsung Electronics logistics-center OT platform build-out

E-commerce fulfillment

Hourly sort rates, chute jams, and merge queues stood up as real-time metrics to pinpoint congestion instantly.

Faster congestion awareness (estimate)

Automated warehouse

Baselines on AS/RS crane and conveyor drive currents and vibration catch degradation early.

Sudden stops prevented ahead of time

C Outcomes

  • Throughput and availability made visible
  • Drive-unit failures prevented early
  • WMS/WCS united with floor data

D FAQ

Can we keep our WMS and WCS as they are?

Yes. Control stays with your WCS; PlantPulse collects in parallel over standard protocols and adds visibility, analytics, and predictive maintenance on top, syncing both ways over REST APIs.

Do you integrate AMR and robot fleets?

Collection runs on standard protocols (OPC-UA, MQTT, Modbus, and more), with vendor APIs wired up through Flow connectors.

We run 24/7 — deployment can't stop operations.

Parallel collection leaves current operations untouched. Start with a single-zone pilot and scale after validation.
