AutoStore continues to gain ground. There are good reasons for this. However, the full potential of the system can only be exploited with precisely tailored integration software. Automated small parts warehouses (AKL) are proven classics in intralogistics. Depending on the requirements profile, operation takes place via storage and retrieval machines (SRMs), shuttles or robots, as with the AutoStore system. The latter move in an aisleless aluminum construction, stack the containers directly on top of each other and make them available just-in-time for order picking. The advantages are therefore practically obvious: in particular, a low space requirement in conjunction with a high storage density as well as flexibility and scalability speak for the robot-supported order fulfillment solution from the Norwegian manufacturer. But the achievable performance in terms of throughput and productivity is also a decisive argument for using AutoStore as an automated small parts warehouse (AS/RS). The option of automated, order-related pre-consolidation is also impressive – even at night if required. Organize and control automated warehouses efficiently However, the desired performance potential of AutoStore can only be exploited by using an intelligent warehouse management system (WMS), which integrates the system into the overall warehouse process and controls it on a daily … Lire plus

Digitalization is changing the way we live and the way we work – massively. The building materials trade cannot ignore this development. However, processes in this sector in particular are still extremely traditional, especially in the field of intralogistics. However, the pressure to act is growing and is being further intensified by the flourishing e-commerce business. However, initial initiatives to usher in the necessary structural change are already having an impact. This is clearly illustrated by the example of two retail companies that decided to introduce warehouse management software (WMS) and thus set the course for the future. The convenience of e-commerce has given rise to a new guild of builders. They, as well as DIY enthusiasts, are increasingly researching products and prices on the Internet. But it doesn’t usually stop there, shopping is also increasingly being done online. The change in procurement behavior also poses new challenges for traditional building materials dealers. Although they often use merchandise management systems, their basic functions usually support administrative processes, such as the creation of delivery bills and invoices. The ability to provide information to customers, who like to check availability online in a matter of seconds, is therefore limited. Uncertainty at the … Lire plus
