Introduction:
DEF Retail, a rapidly growing retailer with a vast product portfolio, was struggling to keep up with inventory management and order fulfillment demands. To address these challenges, they invested in a dynamic shuttle-based loading system from Advanced Warehousing Solutions.
System Overview:
The dynamic shuttle-based loading system integrates high-speed shuttles, robotic arms, and an advanced warehouse management system. The shuttles move autonomously between shelves, retrieving and depositing products as needed. Robotic arms assist in loading and unloading pallets or individual items, further streamlining the process.
Key Benefits:
Increased Throughput: The system's high-speed shuttles and robotic arms enable DEF Retail to process up to 50% more orders per day.
Reduced Labor Intensity: Automating repetitive tasks reduces physical strain on workers and allows them to focus on value-added activities.
Flexible Storage Configuration: The system can adapt to changing inventory needs, accommodating a wide range of product sizes and packaging.
