Frankfurt am Main/Stuttgart, March 11, 2025 – The KION Group, as part of a large-scale collaboration with NVIDIA and Accenture to reinvent industrial automation, introduces its first physical AI-powered Omniverse solution at LogiMAT 2025 in Stuttgart, Germany, from March 11-13. This milestone demonstrates how AI-driven industrial trucks and digital twins can transform supply chain operations by enhancing efficiency, adaptability, and cost-effectiveness.

At LogiMAT, KION subsidiary Linde Material Handling presents a fully integrated goods-in solution, featuring an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) and a manual truck, both AI-powered. The solution is digitally represented in NVIDIA’s Omniverse, displaying the real-time localizations of the industrial trucks. The on-board and stationary cameras run on NVIDIA hardware, capturing and processing live operational data. The whole solution works in an ever-evolving simulation environment, preparing to optimize vehicle coordination and route planning at scale. Additionally, the trucks include app capabilities that enable continuous software upgrades for functionalities such as enhanced person recognition and obstacle avoidance.

“In global trade, in the world’s supply chains and logistics centers, conditions are constantly changing. By leveraging physical AI, KION designs, simulates, and optimizes the real options in our customers supply chains. Digital twins perform this in real time and serve as the control tower and blueprint for their physical twin counterparts”, said Rob Smith, CEO of KION GROUP AG. “This saves huge amounts of time, capex and operating cost for our customers and gives them the ability to constantly adapt their operations to the changing conditions in their supply chains.”

As announced in January, the three companies cooperate to leverage physical AI with intelligent stationary cameras, autonomous forklifts, and the latest automation and robotics solutions to create highly realistic, real-time digital twins in NVIDIA's Omniverse fed by live sensor and camera data. This enables customers to digitally map every asset in their warehouse in real time – from manual forklifts, autonomous robots and the exact locations of goods. Combined with the ability to run an infinite amount of scenarios, this will help customers define ideal layouts for new warehouses and improve warehouse management by predicting peak loads, ensuring worker safety, and more effectively planning the use of resources.
