Abstract

In April 2023 LogiMAT 2023, the International Trade Show for Intralogistics Solutions and Process Management, was held in Stuttgart (Germany). The trade show was the largest international review of innovations in the fi eld of intralogistics. The exhibits presented at the show clearly demonstrated current conceptual requirements for development of logistics and transport, such as digitalization, automation and robotization. New kinds and types of lifting, transportation and storage equipment, new logistics technologies and systems, innovative control systems using the capabilities of artifi cial intelligence, machine learning, cloud technologies and other state-of-the-art achievements of science and practice were widely presented at the exhibition. The lifting and transportation equipment was represented by fl oor transport, independent mobile robots, load-hoisting and load gripping devices, the systems for sorting, packing, packaging and retrieval of cargoes, etc. The article discusses some types of lifting and transportation equipment, such as fl oor vehicles, mobile robots, load-hoisting and load gripping devices, as well as some types of related equipment.
