Project Description:

The Amazon PAD2 logistics center, located in Horn-Bad Meinberg, Germany near Paderborn Airport, is a modern, high-tech facility that was built in approximately two years.

At the core of its logistics operations are the Robotics Floors. On these floors, products are stored using a dynamic (or “chaotic”) storage system, meaning that items do not have fixed storage locations. Instead, the system determines the optimal storage position for each item and records its location digitally.

For the automation of the HVAC systems, a solution from Honeywell was selected
