Intralogistics, Robotics & Additive Manufacturing brings mechanical engineering, automation, and software together into one practice — racking, conveyors, AS/RS, autonomous mobile robots, JAKA collaborative robotics, palletising, pallet wrapping, WMS, and industrial 3D printing. Virtual Era is the authorised representative in Kosova for JAKA Robotics, FlexLink, Smipack, Atlanta Stretch, and Hovmand — delivered as one turnkey system.
Warehouse operations across the Western Balkans are hitting a structural labour crunch. Recruitment takes longer, wages are climbing, e-commerce is pushing orders-per-hour to levels manual operations cannot sustain, and the delta between "good enough" and "automated" grows every quarter. Meanwhile customers and retailers expect same-day, same-hour fulfilment.
Intralogistics is where the mechanical, electrical, and software worlds meet. A racking-only vendor sells you racking. A software-only vendor sells you a WMS. A robotics-only vendor sells you AMRs. None of them integrate, none of them take accountability for the operating outcome, and the client is left stitching three suppliers together through a general contractor.
Virtual Era's Intralogistics practice delivers the warehouse as one engineered system — design, mechanical installation, automation, robotics, WMS, ERP integration, ramp-up support, and RunOps. One design authority, one commercial accountability, one SLA after go-live. Delivered with our partners stow, and movu-robotics, and integrated with the broader Smart Industry stack.
Virtual Era designs, supplies, installs, and supports the full intralogistics stack — warehouse design, racking, conveyors, robotics, AS/RS, palletising, collaborative robotics (JAKA), WMS, and additive manufacturing. We are the authorised representative in Kosova for JAKA Robotics, FlexLink, Smipack, Atlanta Stretch, and Hovmand.
End-to-end warehouse design — layout, slotting, flow, staffing — validated through discrete-event simulation before commercial commitment to any hardware.
Engineered racking — selective, drive-in, push-back, live-storage, and shuttle systems — designed for the SKU profile, throughput, and seasonality of the actual operation.
Full conveyor and sortation design — FlexLink modular conveyors, belt, roller, shoe-sorter, cross-belt — engineered as an integrated flow from inbound dock to outbound staging.
Autonomous mobile robotics — goods-to-person, pallet moves, autonomous forklifts, and swarm-based picking. Integrated with WMS, not bolted on.
JAKA collaborative robots for machine tending, packaging, palletising, quality inspection, and assembly tasks — safe for operators to work alongside, deployable in weeks rather than months. Full portfolio covering payloads from 3 kg to 30 kg with reach to 2 m.
High-density AS/RS for pallets, totes, and cases — vertical lift modules, carousels, and shuttle systems — with throughput engineered for peak, not nameplate.
Automatic palletisers (Highrunner series) for high-cycle palletising, Smipack shrinkwrappers and combined bundlers for secondary packaging, and Atlanta Stretch fully-automatic pallet wrapping — engineered together as one integrated end-of-line cell.
WMS selection, implementation, and ERP integration — Infor, Manhattan, Blue Yonder, Microsoft Dynamics, Odoo, and custom builds depending on scale and complexity.
Pick-to-light, put-to-light, voice-directed picking, and RF-terminal workflows — with Zebra, Datalogic, and Honeywell hardware and integration to WMS.
Hovmand mobile lifting trolleys for safe drum, container, and heavy-load handling — ergonomic solutions for workplaces where manual handling is unsafe, non-compliant, or unnecessarily slow.
3D printing for industrial spares, fixtures, prototyping, and short-run production — advisory on technology selection, service-bureau delivery, or in-plant deployment.
Post-go-live ramp-up support, continuous flow optimisation, and managed-services operations — we stay accountable for throughput after day one, not just to commissioning.
Every Digital Enterprise engagement follows the same reference architecture — adapted to your scale, cloud posture, and compliance requirements. This is the stack-level view we present to steering committees and auditors.
Every solution draws on a subset of our ten capability pillars. Here are the practices that directly deliver Digital Enterprise engagements — each with dedicated leads, certified engineers, and standing playbooks.
Different entry points, same underlying system. Whether the trigger is growth, compliance, M&A, or pure cost pressure, the engagement shape is recognisable.
Typical: e-commerce retailer, 3PL, or distributor building a new DC of 10 000–60 000 m². Full design-build-integrate engagement, 10–18 months from concept to live operations. Simulated throughput commitments before go-live.
Operation pushing against peak limits — usually e-commerce growth or seasonal surge. Phased retrofit with automation islands, WMS uplift, and selective robotics deployment while the site keeps operating.
Specialised cold-storage automation — reach-trucks, dense storage, cold-rated robotics, and temperature-monitored traceability from goods-in to dispatch. Full regulatory traceability built in.
Advisory on where industrial 3D printing actually makes commercial sense — spares, tooling, short-run, prototyping — versus where it remains a solution looking for a problem. Business case before equipment.
Digital Enterprise is platform-agnostic by design — we lead with the right tool for your scale and compliance load, not the one that pays us the highest margin. Our engineers hold certifications with every major vendor in this space.
Turnkey warehouse automation for a multi-country FMCG distributor — racking replacement, conveyor and sortation system, WMS deployment, Zebra handheld rollout, and integration to their ERP. Commissioned in time for peak season; picks-per-hour up 2.1×; order-cycle time down 47%.
A day on site. Our warehouse engineers map the current layout, interview operations leads, extract data from your WMS or handheld systems, and simulate realistic improvement scenarios. Deliverable: a sized, phased modernisation roadmap with commercial envelope.
