Challenge
The goal was to automate the movement of pallets from the production plant to the warehouse facility, ensuring a seamless connection between customer production lines and two semi-automated truck loading points.
Solution
The proposed solution included the design and implementation of an automated warehouse and material handling system, featuring two semi-automated truck unloading lines. The supply included mechanical components, electrical installation for command control, and automation software interfaced with the customer’s WMS.
Self-supporting mezzanine: 5 meters high.
Truck loading line: ability to create 3 trains of 32 pallets each.
Truck unloading line: ability to receive 4 trains of 32 pallets each.
Material handling system: inbound dimension control, roller/chain conveyors, lifting and rotating tables for pallet deviation, elevators, and sorting shuttles.
Optimized management: supervision software (LogiCON, LogiTRASP) integrated with the company’s WMS.
Key technical data
Warehouse height: approx. 11.5 meters
IN aisles: 3 chain conveyors for profile control
OUT aisles: Unloading area towards shipments consisting of 4 gravity roller conveyors
System performance: 200 pallets per hour inbound and 200 pallets per hour outbound
Managed goods type: Wooden pallets 800 x 1,200 mm.
