Challenge
An old Gantry robot needed to be replaced with a new, more efficient one. The installation took place during the summer shut down. In order to avoid unexpected events during this short period (2 weeks), the system was assembled and tested in LCS before being delivered to the Customer.
Solution
The proposal included the design and construction of an automatic warehouse and material handling system starting from the supply of self-supporting shelving, and included, in addition to mechanical components, the electrical installation for control, and the automation supervision software interfaced with the client’s WMS system.
- Buffer warehouse between the existing automatic warehouse and the picking area
- T-car with hoist to store and retrieve pallets to/from the buffer warehouse
- 4-ways turning table to increase the throughput.
- 4-axis robot on linear unit to pick cartons from a display of 12 full pallets and place them on one of the customer pallets
- Nr. 2 Printer & Apply machines
- Manual picking area
- PLC Software modules LogiTRASP
- PC Software module LogiCON
