Swisslog, a leading 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
\nFastMove 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
\nDriving high pallet throughput while maintaining flexibility
\nWith 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
\nCompared 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
\nThe 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
\nExtending service life: Upgrade packages for modernization
\nFastMove 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
\nCurrent 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
\nThe next product release, available by the end of 2026, is designed to meet the requirements under the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and machinery regulations<\/p>\n
Designed for demanding environments and diverse industries
\nFastMove is engineered to perform reliably under a wide range of operating conditions. It operates in environments from deep-freeze temperatures of -30\u00b0C to ambient conditions of up to 50\u00b0C and handles loads of up to 1,500 kg, or up to 3,000 kg with twin-load configurations. These capabilities make it a versatile solution for the food and beverage, consumer goods, and retail sectors, where performance and robustness are non-negotiable
\nSeamless integration with intelligent software
\nFastMove integrates into existing warehouse IT infrastructure through Swisslog\u2019s SynQ software platform, enabling intelligent control of material flows and synchronization between automated and manual processes. Transparent, data-driven operations are supported throughout, meeting the growing demand for connected intralogistics solutions.
\n\u201cFastMove represents the next step in the evolution of monorail technology at Swisslog,\u201d said Giovanni Franco, Product Manager, Pallet Transportation at Swisslog. \u201cBy combining high performance with modular scalability and cost efficiency, we provide our customers with a future-ready solution that supports growth, modernization, and long-term operational excellence\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
