This is the basis of the LUCA systems with a mature basic concept and professional software development. Our software is installed on a customer server platform and supported via VPN.
The Professional IT-Concept for LUCA-Solutions
Stable, Flexible, Innovative and Cost-Effective
Why?
For many years, LUCA has been using many different technologies to build its order picking systems. In order to standardize the development and make it future-proof, a common platform had to be created for all these technologies. The modular structure of the LUCA-Server with very fast inter-process communication and various monitoring and protocol mechanisms guarantee the capabilities.

The goal
The large number of different technologies that LUCA supports requires a stable basic concept. To achieve this, we have set ourselves several goals for LUCA-Server . The most important was to standardize the interface between the various technologies (e.g. Pick-to-Light, Voice PickingPick-by-Frame®, Pick-by-Point®, etc). The interfaces to the individual system components and systems are connected to the LUCA-Server via special coupling modules. From there, the data flow is controlled and can be monitored via online monitoring. Our systems are used in a productive environment. For this reason, very high availability must be guaranteed. The core and individual communication channels and processes can be monitored centrally via the control station functions. The modular structure guarantees flexibility for expansions. Various mechanisms for hotline support are integrated to guarantee reliable operation.
