Swisslog, a provider of data-driven warehouse automation solutions, has repositioned its proven monorail system under the new name FastMove. The updated product identity reflects enhanced customer value, with a focus on performance, flexibility, and improved equipment lifecycle for long-distance pallet transport.

FastMove is a high-capacity electrified monorail system designed to move palletized goods efficiently across complex warehouse environments. Building on more than 40 years of proven Swisslog technology, this next-generation monorail solution enables companies to optimize material flow over long distances while maintaining high throughput and gentle handling of goods.

With enhanced throughput management, Swisslog strengthens its commitment to delivering measurable operational advantages. FastMove allows customers to significantly increase throughput, with transport speeds of up to 2 m/s and system capacities exceeding 600 pallets per hour. This high-performance capability helps operators meet growing demand and manage peak volumes more efficiently.

Compared to conventional conveyor-based transport systems, FastMove offers a more favorable cost position, particularly in applications requiring long transport distances or high throughput. Its ability to transport large volumes over extended distances with fewer system components contributes to reduced installation and operational costs, while also improving space utilization within the warehouse.

The system has been designed with flexibility and scalability at its core, allowing customers to adapt their intralogistics infrastructure as business requirements evolve. Its modular track design supports complex layouts and can be adjusted with minimal effort. Throughput scales simply by modifying the number of vehicles operating within the system, enabling a phased investment approach that aligns with business growth and demand fluctuations.

FastMove also offers clear advantages for existing operations. Its components are well suited for modernization and retrofit projects, enabling customers to upgrade performance and extend the service life of their intralogistics infrastructure without requiring a complete system replacement.

Current upgrades are applied primarily at the controls and software level, with mechatronic requirements addressed where needed, protecting existing investments while ensuring installations remain current and compliant.
