On the nationwide Supply Chain Day, companies, organisations and institutes open their doors to the public and demonstrate how versatile and efficient logistics is.

In a collaborative event, the Mittelstand Digital Centres WertNetzWerke and Bremen-Oldenburg, together with the BIBA - Bremen Institute for Production and Logistics, are helping to shape this day and are focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) and the circular economy. Other co-organisers are the Mittelstand-Digital Zentrum Hamburg, the Bremen Research Cluster for Dynamics in Logistics (LogDynamics), the Bundesverband Materialwirtschaft, Einkauf und Logistik (BME) and the Umwelt Unternehmen office.

We are delighted to invite you to experience innovative and sustainable technologies for logistics in the research hall of the BIBA - Bremen Institute of Production and Logistics. Join us and find out how AI can be used in logistics, what opportunities there are for the industry and what challenges need to be overcome. You will also learn how resources can be conserved and waste avoided through closed loops and how logistics can be made more energy-efficient. Look forward to keynote speeches, an expo with exciting demonstrators and the space to network!

The nationwide Girls' Day is always an opportunity to give female pupils an insight into the world of engineering and to encourage them to study science or technology. BIBA will be there again on April 3, 2025 with low-threshold hands-on offers and shows how exciting technology can be. In our Hackspace in the BIBA research hall, students can experience technology up close: from product design for 3D printing to the production of small parts with the laser cutter to personalized give-aways - they can plan and implement all this themselves in our workshop.

To all interested young female scientists: Join us, unfold your creativity and discover how much fun technology can be! Register for the BIBA workshop on February 8, 2025!

It's time again for the Hannover Messe in spring! At the world's most important industrial trade fair, companies from the mechanical engineering, electrical and digital industries as well as the energy sector will jointly present solutions for an equally efficient and sustainable industry.

BIBA will also be there with the Mittelstand-Digital Zentrum Bremen-Oldenburg and is participating with a demonstrator in the joint area of the umbrella initiative Mittelstand-Digital, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK).

Our demonstrator is a mobile assembly workstation that uses human-robot collaboration (HRC) and artificial intelligence (AI) to support people in production environments and optimise assembly processes. The collaborative robot (cobot) provides the required parts, while a central IoT control system visualises the warehouse stock. Sensors and cameras are used to ensure the safety of the collaboration and collect process data. The mobile assembly workstation therefore stands for intelligent automation of manufacturing processes that can be achieved with low financial and retrofitting costs.

Visit us at booth F40 in hall 17!

The virtual impulse seminar offers an overview of technologies for increasing transparency in supply chains. We will give you an in-depth insight into the use of mobile sensor technology in the supply chain. You can look forward to an innovative technical solution for a networked, intelligent supply chain that integrates mobile sensors, gateways, 3D image processing, cloud platforms and digital services. As a result, quality-relevant environmental influences on the products as well as condition-relevant data from transports, such as geolocation, are continuously recorded and digitized with mobile and stationary sensors. Based on this data, digital services are provided for the companies involved, which help to identify transport problems at an early stage and provide further assistance in ensuring product and process quality.

The Digitalisation Dialogue is an event format organised by BHV - Bremische Hafen- und Logistikvertretung for a professional exchange on digitalisation topics in logistics. On December 4th 2024, the use of a helium drone for inventory management from the BIBA project DroneStock will be presented in this context. Together with our partner Nagel-Group, we will present how a helium drone is used for automatic pallet inventory in high-bay warehouses. Based on tests at Nagel-Group, we will demonstrate the functionality and results of this innovative solution.

Let yourself be inspired by the possibilities that technologies like this can offer your company! Discuss with experts and exchange ideas with like-minded people about the challenges and opportunities of digitalisation in logistics.
