Abstract: The paper discusses the problem of pallet identification accuracy in the context of material handling process automation. The need to ensure the correctness and efficiency of the internal transport process performance has caused the necessity for developing solutions that can correctly identify the pallet's position by an autonomous mobile robot (AMR). [..] Read more

Abstract: Increasing global competition drives the need to meet new customer demands, which leads to significant changes in modern industry. In this context, the rapid development of Industry 4.0 over recent years has been observed. [..] Read more

Abstract: Due to massive increase of using of different types of city transport e.g. cars, bicycles, segways, scooters, or electric scooters also increases the potential risk of collisions or critical situations. [..] Read more

Abstract: The job scheduling problem is one of the biggest optimization challenges for manufacturing companies. A properly performed planning can reduce both cost and production time. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper deals with the process planning structure of the complex magnesite processing, where capacity planning and production scheduling constitutes the meaningful and essential component of the product manufacturing control process within the whole its life-cycle. The result is a new advanced planning system proposal, which respond to a modern trends identified by European Commission for sustainable raw material processing area.. [..] Read more

Abstract: Individual car transport in large cities causes congestion, parking problems, and overall difficulty in urban logistics. There is a big problem finding a parking space in city centres, especially near offices and institutions. [..] Read more

Abstract: Logistics 4.0 as a concept that focuses on the increased integration of enterprises within open supply chains, the development of management support IT systems, logistic processes automation and control, generates changes in the logistic planning process. The article presents a method of logistics planning that allows the implementation of the planning process in a comprehensive view in accordance with the assumptions of Logistics 4.0. [..] Read more

Abstract: The platinum group metals (PGMs) palladium, platinum, and rhodium represent the key materials for automotive exhaust gas treatment. Since there are currently no adequate alternatives, the importance of these metals for the automotive industry is steadily rising. [..] Read more

Abstract: This article presents the study of the current state of art in the field of application of technology of an autonomous forklift for loading and unloading trucks. The ever increasing need for automatization and robotization of logistics processes in the automotive industry exceeds from inhouse manipulation to various areas of logistics. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper is focused on interchange nodes between trains and regional buses. Sometimes it is necessary to use railway station and bus terminal located at different positions in the municipality. [..] Read more

Abstract: In Europe, intermodal transport is an indispensable element of transport policy, mainly because of the reduction of the negative effects of road transport on the environment, fuel and energy consumption, highway and road maintenance costs, land take and road safety. The geographic location of the Slovak Republic predetermines and accentuates the importance of transit transport in the west-east and north-south directions. [..] Read more

Abstract: The issue of distribution logistics including all sub-processes is very topical. E-commerce experiencing a great expansion every year, which has been exacerbated by the ongoing pandemic. [..] Read more

Abstract: The relationship between logistics and transport is very close, as transport ensures the physical movement of the product from the place of production to the place of consumption. Transport is a significant factor of time, it is the bearer of the speed and reliability of product relocation, it is one of the most important elements of the logistics system. [..] Read more

Abstract: Road bypasses of cities are built primarily for the purpose of detouring transit traffic from cities to their periphery. Urban roads are then released and used primarily by traffic flows with origin or destination in the city and inner-city individual and public transport. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper presents an approach and corresponding software to model demand for transport services on the grounds of the requests flow model. The authors propose the models of demand simulation for different types of transport systems – a freight forwarding company, a public transport network, and a parking lot. [..] Read more

Abstract: The weather can easily affect human activities. Therefore, it is very important to plan our activities so that the weather does not affect the safety of them. [..] Read more

Abstract: Increasing the efficiency of processes in warehouse facilities is now required in every industry. One of the important decision-making problems is the proper utilization of storage space. [..] Read more

Abstract: The paper deals with the quality and logistics of transport services provided during a two-year pandemic period. It sets out key evaluation indicators when choosing delivery transport services. [..] Read more

Abstract: In logistics processes, we are currently observing trends related to reducing people's work in favor of the implementation of automated systems. It is influenced by the changes in the organization's environment and enterprises. [..] Read more

Abstract: The subject of consideration in the paper are negotiations conducted within the supply chain, between its main participants, including parties cooperating in preparation of offer for final customers, parties supporting chain in logistics, as well as other external stakeholders. The objective of the paper is to distinguish and describe strategies of such negotiations, based on the authors' original concept. [..] Read more
