What makes Jungheinrich so unique is the company's irrepressible pioneering spirit. Constantly devising new, forward-looking solutions, Jungheinrich is driving innovation within the material handling industry. But who is behind all the visionary ideas, projects and products? Find out the answer and get to know the real pioneers – people that work tirelessly every day on shaping material handling of the future – in the Jungheinrich docuseries: "Meet the Pioneers".
Many consider electrification to be the drive system of tomorrow – at Jungheinrich it's already a reality. Our trucks are 100% electric. And it's people like Florian that we have to thank for this: his enthusiasm for electrification is infectious and he works passionately with his team on driving forward new energy solutions. He loves to develop ideas with customers and implement solutions that produce real added value. So it's no wonder that he takes pride in our POWERLiNE trucks with integrated lithium-ion batteries and the fact that they're way ahead of the competition. In this instalment, find out why Florian is so passionate about electrification and how he boosts his own energy in his spare time.
Sustainability is a key focus area at Jungheinrich. And that's why Jungheinrich also takes unconventional approaches to minimising its emissions. Take, for example, a pilot project that will allow Jungheinrich After Sales Service to operate fully electrically in the future. Electric service trucks, intelligent and software-based route planning, and an expanded network of service engineers to deliver shorter routes: every little contribution is a major step towards a better carbon footprint. Get on board and join Farid in his service truck as he goes about his daily work.
Industrial trucks that drive, operate and think for themselves: it might look like magic, but behind these smart products is highly complex, innovative technology and incredible people like Tessa, who as a software developer for autonomous truck systems is passionately driving the future of material handling.
Her current project is to develop software for the new Jungheinrich EAE 212a mobile robot, which celebrated its global premiere at LogiMAT 2023. A clever end-to-end solution that works with the control system and tool chain, it integrates effortlessly into existing warehouses for maximum flexibility and scalability to shape material handling of tomorrow. See for yourself.
