Just over a year since formalizing its partnership with OPEX® Corporation—a U.S.-based global leader in automated picking and sorting solutions, Trascar is already seeing concrete results: six new projects launched across diverse industry sectors, a clear sign that the Italian market has quickly embraced the value of this technological synergy.
Trascar, a fully Italian company with over 50 years of experience, designs, manufactures, and installs integrated systems for industrial logistics from its headquarters in Bomporto, in the province of Modena.
Located in the heart of Italy’s so-called “Tech Valley,” the company has developed a wide-ranging expertise that continues to attract both national and international clients seeking a trusted partner capable of transforming operational complexity into high-performance solutions.
Over the years, Trascar has built a portfolio that spans the full spectrum of material handling and internal flow management: automated mixed palletizing systems, Goods-to-Person solutions, transport and conveying systems, high-density automated warehouses, advanced picking technologies, and tools for final order preparation and shipping. Each project can be based on a standard solution or custom-developed to meet the specific needs of the sector, layout constraints, volume requirements, and performance goals of individual clients.
The collaboration with OPEX® has enabled Trascar to natively integrate order fulfillment technologies that are already well established in the North American market.
The combination of Trascar’s decades-long expertise as a system integrator with OPEX®’s proven technological leadership has resulted in a joint offering that is reliable, scalable, and quick to implement.
The Italian intralogistics and e-commerce distribution markets are increasingly seeking measurable innovation, and the six projects acquired in less than twelve months are a tangible confirmation of both the demand and Trascar’s credibility.
“For over 50 years, we’ve been designing and integrating systems in an industry that grows more complex by the day, always with the goal of maximizing our clients’ return on investment,” says Marco Andrea Gelati of Trascar. “Our drive for continuous improvement is part of our manufacturing DNA, and the international recognition we receive speaks for itself. Our partnership with OPEX® allows us to bring this integration expertise to the Italian and European markets with highly competitive technological alternatives.”
As part of the agreement, Trascar has incorporated three flagship OPEX® solutions into its offering for European clients:
WonderPick_Perfect is a fully automated Goods-to-Person storage and retrieval system that uses wireless robots to deliver bins or items directly to operators, reducing travel time and enhancing workstation ergonomics.
WonderPick_Infinity is designed to maximize storage density and performance in buffer and picking applications.In typical configurations, it can offer up to 35% more storage capacity than the most widely used Goods-to-Person systems and helps speed up order fulfillment with high accuracy.
WonderPick_Sure, based on the proven Sure Sort technology, is a highly versatile, scalable, and configurable automated sorting platform. It supports organizations of all sizes aiming to boost distribution efficiency, reduce operational costs, and meet the growing demands of omnichannel and e-commerce logistics.
The successful execution of the first six projects confirms that the fusion of Italian-made applied engineering and OPEX® technology meets the productivity and reliability expectations across various industries.
These projects are generating performance indicators that are already opening new commercial opportunities, both in Italy and in neighboring European markets, where the demand for flexible automation solutions that integrate with existing infrastructure is rapidly growing.
“We’re already seeing the benefits of this joint journey. These six projects signal a turning point. The market is embracing a model that blends technological innovation with tailor-made integration, and we’re proud to be part of this evolution,” concludes Marco Andrea Gelati.
