Today, some warehouses are already fully automatic. Computer\u2011controlled cranes move pallets, robots pick orders, and smart systems bring goods to packers in e\u2011commerce centers. In the future, even transport and delivery may be done by self-driving trucks and vans.<\/p><p>Many of these technologies already exist. But for everything to run smoothly from start to finish, all machines and systems must be able to exchange data and instructions.

Automatic cranes and robots are not very smart by themselves. They simply do what the Warehouse Management System (WMS) tells them. If they do not receive a new task, they just stop and wait.<\/p><p>A human worker would use that time to prepare for the next job. But machines cannot do that, because the WMS does not know what will arrive or leave the warehouse later. It only knows what is currently in stock.<\/p><p>Predictive tools, such as the SAP EWM module, can help. But there is another issue: machines like cranes, robots or AGVs communicate through a PLC using structured messages, called <em>telegrams<\/em>. These telegrams have fixed fields and a fixed format. The machine receives a message, confirms it, carries out the task, and then sends a new message back.<\/p><p>SAP messages, however, look completely different. So SAP and a PLC-controlled robot do not naturally \u201cunderstand\u201d each other.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bcd71a6 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"bcd71a6\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59c60fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"59c60fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Raspberry PI as interpreter<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c103a7 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"0c103a7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ea687ce elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ea687ce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As SAP SCM specialists, Quinaptis wants to make SAP systems communicate better with logistics equipment.

This worked a little, but real communication was still difficult.<\/p><p>That\u2019s why we added a Raspberry Pi mini\u2011computer between SAP and the Lego robot. The Raspberry Pi works like an interpreter. It translates SAP messages into PLC\u2011style telegrams that the robot can understand.
