Private 5G Transforms Operations at Leading Swedish Manufacturing Plant
Jul 15, 2025
How Private 5G is Powering the Smart Warehouse Revolution
Warehouses and logistics hubs are becoming intelligence-driven ecosystems. Industry 4.0 is pushing automation, autonomous vehicles, and real-time data analytics to new heights - and connectivity is the backbone of this transformation.
Private 5G is emerging as the dominant enabler. With its ultra-low latency, reliable coverage, and robust security, enterprises are turning away from traditional Wi‑Fi to unlock advanced use cases like AGVs, AMRs, predictive maintenance, and real‑time inventory tracking.
The market is expanding fast - forecast at USD 3.86 billion in 2025, growing at a 35% CAGR to reach nearly USD 17.6 billion by 2030. As enterprises demand tighter ROI, Private 5G deployments now power not just factories, but entire logistics networks
Enhancing Efficiency, Reliability, and Safety with CloudRAN.AI’s Private 5G Solution
For manufacturers, logistics efficiency directly impacts profitability and safety. When a leading Swedish manufacturing plant needed to upgrade its outdoor warehouse operations, it chose CloudRAN.AI’s Private 5G (P5G) network to streamline processes and improve automation.
Addressing Operational Challenges
Traditional Wi-Fi solutions at the plant were not delivering the reliability and coverage required. Frequent network delays and inadequate coverage limited remote scheduling of forklifts and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). High operational costs and maintenance complexity further complicated warehouse management.
The plant required:
Ultra-low latency
High reliability
Flexible, scalable networking
