The Open-Source solution which grows with your needs.
Zoones is an artificial word derived from the fact that in this solution, everything is driven by Zones.
Zones denote devices like conveyors, turntables, shuttles, robots, stores and whatnot. These Zones are then connected together via a topology, allowing Zoones to automatically figure out the best way through your store.
Like in your car navigation, the cheapest way is calculated while any obstacles on the way are considered.
Thank you, Dijkstra!
A 3D modeler allows you to visually replicate the design of your warehouse and create the connections between the various zones, so Zoones is able to take care of the route of your goods.
A load of settings allows customizing the navigation. E.g., you can adjust the cost of a zone depending on its filling degree or its utilization (pressure).
A fully customizable 2D view, divided in ares, gives you a perfect overview of your store.
Not only you will see where your loading carriers are located, you will also see detailed information about the content of the carrier and business related information like for which customer this carrier is meant for.

For more than 30 years, I am busy in the ERP area and for roughly 15 years I am working on Zoones.
It started as a small piece of software for a handful of pallets, conveyors and other involved warehousing technology.
At that time, the store was too small to justify a full-blown commercial solution, yet too huge to handle all that manually.
As a person with a passion for technology, this soon became my favorite project. The store grew and more and more devices were there to be handled.
