Jungheinrich optimises AGLUKON'S material handling
Scalable automation with growth potential for the future
In order to increase the warehouse capacity and efficiency, AGLUKON Spezialdünger decided to build a new, semi-automated narrow aisle warehouse. The automated guided vehicle, pallet racking technology and the WMS were supplied by Jungheinrich from a single source and at short notice.
Challenges
- Optimisation and gradual automation of warehouse processes
- Capacity bottlenecks and confusing structures in stock management
- Increasing shortage of skilled labour with greater customer requirements
- Rapid realisation and implementation in day-to-day operations
Solutions
- Automated ERC 217a and EKX 516a trucks, as well as EKX 516k manual trucks
- Pallet racking technology for a narrow aisle warehouse with an overall capacity of more than 5,000 storage locations
- Shuttle warehouse and two UPC shuttles to operate the compact warehouse
- Comprehensive WMS for integrated warehouse management and process control
Successes
- Projectable availability thanks to improved overview of stock
- Increased capacity in the flexible high-bay warehouse with options for future expansion
- Increased efficiency thanks to automated transport of highly customised products
- Project completed within a very short time and well before the start of the peak season
