German Innovation Award

The SAP engineers at IGZ have been awarded the German Innovation Award in Gold in the Logistics & Infrastructure category. The patented pick-by-robot solution Luke2 was recognized as having the potential to change the market for fully automated single-part picking in the long term.

Luke2 is the only mobile picking robot to date that can be used alternately or as an alternative to a worker. In addition, the automation solution is directly integrated into SAP EWM as a complete solution. The robot has all the technology and sensors on board, is connected with just one cable and is ready for use in just a few minutes. Due to the current situation, the prestigious award was presented virtually as an exception.

“The future belongs to mechanically simple and retrofittable solutions that can be put into production in a short space of time.” – Johann Zrenner, Co-founder and Managing Director of IGZ
