Impressive precision at a height of 22 metres
Top logistics performance in Continental's automated high-bay warehouse
We installed a proud 1,000 tons of iron distributed over two automatic high-bay warehouses at our customer Continental in Slovakia. Now a total of eight storage and retrieval machines process 20,000 pallet locations in a state-of-the-art manner at a system speed of up to 120 double cycles per hour.
Challenges
- Parallel implementation of two high-bay storage systems for simultaneous commissioning
- Merging of racking systems, stacker cranes, operating devices and software to form a complex warehouse system
- Installation of fire protection with self-extinguishing sprinkler system for both silos
- Implementation of an autonomous solution with seamless technical communication between all units
Solutions
- Automated warehouse with two pallet silos and a total of around 18.000 pallet spaces
- Silo 1: Three-aisle layout and double-deep storage to create the greatest possible space capacity
- Silo 2: Five-aisle arrangement with single-deep storage for fast handling of up to 9,600 pallets
- Efficient transport of the load units thanks to conveyor technology with automatic contour control
Successes
- Creation of a perfect interaction of all components in the scalable automatic warehouse
- More performance and increased flexibility in the business unit for electronic brake systems
- Realisation of a flexible warehouse solution with expansion possibilities in the future
- Successful project implementation with Jungheinrich as general contractor
