Overview
EAE Flow is a modular software platform designed to control conveying and sortation systems, enhancing the potential of intralogistics systems. It is built on the latest automation developments and industry standards.

Modules

• EAE Flow.Master: Acts as the Warehouse Control System (WCS), linking Warehouse Management Systems with low-level controls to optimize material flow.
• EAE Flow.Control: Manages real-time controls of electro-mechanical equipment, ensuring efficient transport of goods using WCS information, I/O signals, and scan & vision data.
• EAE Flow.Commander: Provides a user-friendly Human Machine Interface (HMI) for operators and managers, visualizing operational status, statistics, and reporting. It is SCADA-compatible and accessible from multiple devices.

Compatibility and Modularity
The platform is compatible with various Material Handling Equipment (MHE) and intralogistics systems, including Crossbelt Sorters, Tray Sorters, Conveying Systems, and Pocketsorters. It integrates seamlessly with WCS and WMS.

Proven Product Software
The software uses modular blocks that are stable, reliable, and quick to implement, reducing risk and implementation time while increasing operational uptime.

Serviceability
The modular design allows for easy optimization, extension, and support, minimizing resolution times for system issues.
