Autonomous roll handling systems for corrugated board production
BHS Intralogistics builds hardware and software for autonomous material handling in corrugated board plants. The tech stack is heavily industrial-focused: Beckhoff TwinCAT, Siemens PLCs (S7-1200, S7-1500), and proprietary control software (iCMS®). Current hiring is exclusively engineering-heavy and senior-focused, concentrated on safety certification and autonomous vehicle compliance—a pattern that tracks directly with their project pipeline, which is dominated by safety & CE conformity processes rather than feature expansion.
BHS Intralogistics is a German solutions provider for automated intralogistics in the corrugated board industry, founded in 2018. The company operates from Neutraubling, Bayern with 51–200 employees. Their core product is BHS iMotion®, an autonomous roll handling and feeding system that transports paper rolls within corrugated board plants without human drivers. iMotion® is paired with iCMS®, a dual-layer software platform: iCMS® Fleetmanager controls autonomous transport vehicle movement and routing, while iCMS® Intralogistics optimizes material flow by coordinating automated and manual resources. Optional modules like iPrep® add automated roll preparation (damaged layer removal) with throughput up to 25 rolls per hour. Sales are concentrated in the DACH region.
