MIM GROUP AT LOGISTICS&AUTOMATION PORTO 2023

Less than a month ago, the Empack and Logistics&Automation Porto 2023 trade fair took place, where 80 companies from the sector exhibited and more than 2,800 professionals visited. The event took place on April 19 and 20 at Exponor, the International Trade Fair in Porto (Portugal). At our stand, visitors were shown the various services we provide in logistics plants, as MIM Group offers a 360-degree service to the industry.

In addition to our stand, we also participated in two activities held in parallel during the fair. The first of these were the Innovation Tours; these consist of guided tours offered by the organizers to visitors to visit stands that have launched an innovation in the intralogistics sector. MIM Group was one of the companies chosen to visit on the Innovation Tours on April 20. During the visit to the stand, our comprehensive indicator management system – SIGMIMONE – was demonstrated and explained. This is a program for implementing, monitoring, and extracting technical data from machinery and equipment (KPIs) aimed at controlling the quality of maintenance services in a logistics center.

We were also selected to give a presentation on comprehensive intralogistics industrial maintenance with 4.0 technology on the Empack and Logistics Hall stage on April 20th at 4:00 PM. The presentation focused on the importance of industrial maintenance in the supply chain and its key role in the optimal functioning of a company’s logistics. Current maintenance technology was also analyzed, along with its future implications based on upcoming technological advances.

Visitors showed considerable interest in the optimization of industrial maintenance and the control of all preventive and corrective machinery operations. These were two highly effective days at the Empack and Logistics & Automation fair, which is why you will be able to find us again next year.

Finally, we invite you to visit us at the next logistics fair, SIL Barcelona, on June 7-9 at the Barcelona International Fair in Montjuïc to learn about the services offered by each of the companies that make up the MIM Group.

MIM APPEARS ON THE ZF PODCAST

As you may know, the 25th edition of the SIL Barcelona trade fair is being held on the 7th, 8th, and 9th, and naturally, MIM will be exhibiting again.

In celebration of its anniversary, the Barcelona Free Trade Zone (organizer of this event) has dedicated the May program of its monthly podcast to recognizing the importance of the logistics sector and the upcoming SIL trade fair. MIM has been invited to participate alongside other companies in this sector: Pau Carrere from Linde Material Handling, Cristina Martín from Usyncro, and Guillem Muñoz from Hedyla, who spoke with Alex Solà, commercial director of MIM Group.

The podcast is available on their website, Spotify, Voox, and Apple. You can listen by clicking the button below.

It discusses and covers current topics such as artificial intelligence, software, and indicators, as well as their importance in controlling clients’ supply chains and achieving optimal productivity. It also discusses the importance of supporting clients in the implementation of these new technologies. Finally, each participating company provides a brief overview of what visitors can expect at this highly anticipated edition of SIL.

We also want to announce, for those who don’t know yet, that MIM is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2023. To commemorate this, on the last day of the fair, Friday, June 9th at 4:00 PM, there will be a short live concert at our booth B259 to celebrate our anniversary with all those who come to visit the fair and our booth.

Industry 4.0 continues to transform production environments; however, many companies still face structural challenges in their maintenance departments. Data dispersion, slow response times, poor operational visibility, and outdated communication channels hinder the efficiency of technical teams. Given this scenario, MIM 4.0 360° (the MIM Group company) and its Robomap solution are positioned as strategic tools to lead the transition toward smarter, more predictive, and connected industrial maintenance management.

Diagnosis of the Current Problem

According to data and observations collected during the Robomap system implementation process, up to 40% of technicians’ time is wasted on non-productive tasks, such as searching for information, inefficient communications, or waiting for instructions.

In response to this, Robomap emerged precisely to address these inefficiencies through a value proposition that integrates hardware, software, and artificial intelligence into a single modular system.

Among the main problems identified in the industry are the following:

Multiplicity of channels and excessive non-priority communication.

Lack of visibility into machine status.

Shortage of technicians, slow and decontextualized training.

High time-to-repair (MTTR).

Disorganized Big Data without relevant filters.

Absence of predictive tools to prevent critical failures.

Robomap: Connectivity, Automation, and Efficiency

Robomap centralizes dispersed technical information and transforms maintenance processes through a robust digital structure. This structure directly connects technicians, machines, and supervisors.

Thanks to AI algorithms trained with internal documentation, the system offers automated assistance in real time. It also recommends procedures and detects critical deviations in operating parameters.

This architecture not only enables a reduction of up to 35% in mean time to repair and downtime, but also accelerates the training curve by 50%.

Integration connects machines, people, and data in a coherent and results-oriented manner. This improves both the efficiency and quality of maintenance services. In particular, the use of digital channels such as WhatsApp and Outlook on smart devices replaces traditional walkie-talkies. This ensures more reliable and traceable internal communication.

Furthermore, performance dashboards provide complete visibility into KPIs such as equipment availability, shift efficiency, and the percentage of incidents resolved in the first instance.

Tangible Results and Key Metrics

Robomap not only qualitatively improves daily operations; it also promises a measurable financial return. Some key figures include:

Reduction in MTTR and increase in uptime by up to 25-35%.

Savings of 10 hours per week per technical manager, thanks to data centralization.

25% increase in operational technical performance.

Up to 30% reduction in unplanned downtime through predictive maintenance.

Initial technical training cut in half, with real-time support provided by AI.

Conclusion: The future of industrial maintenance is already here.

Robomap’s solution redefines the role of the maintenance technician. Now, this professional becomes an intelligent operator, supported by accurate data, contextual assistance, and seamless communication.

The future of industry is moving toward hyperconnectivity and user-centric automation. In this sense, Robomap complies with these principles by offering a scalable, adaptable platform designed to maximize technical performance.

Ultimately, with its comprehensive approach focused on continuous improvement, Robomap represents a key pillar in the evolution toward a more efficient, safe, and resilient industry. The maintenance revolution has already begun, and it is guided by artificial intelligence, data traceability, and precise action at the right time.
