Intralogistics leader Swisslog will be displaying its end-to-end warehouse automation solutions as it exhibits at CeMAT this year in Sydney, July 22-24, at Stand A9.
This year, Swisslog will focus on its multi-temperature warehouse automation solutions, including ambient, chilled, and cold storage.
With 250 deep freeze projects worldwide, Swisslog has a pedigree in cold storage solutions that are compliant, energy-efficient, and protect workers from harsh environments.
Additionally, Swisslog will be displaying its pallet Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) technology, AutoStore grid-based ASRS, and proprietary SynQ software, with live demonstrations.
Keeping cool with cold storage solutions
“Low temperatures make refrigerated warehouses harsh environments, where it is recommended that humans should spend minimal time to avoid hypothermia and other health and safety risks. Using automation to do tasks in freezer areas removes workers from these harsh environments, freeing them up to work in other, more suitable areas,” says Swisslog Managing Director, Australia and New Zealand, Dan Ulmamei.
“Additionally, an automated high-bay chilled warehouse can reduce the energy load by as much as 20% compared with conventional more labour-intensive alternatives. Not only does it reduce the power bill, but it typically allows for four times more storage within the same building footprint, so you are maximising your use of the available space,” he adds.
End-to-end warehouse automation
Swisslog will also be showcasing solutions including its PowerStore pallet shuttle system, AutoStore grid-based automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS), proprietary SynQ software, as well as a range of other pallet and light goods technologies.
“Swisslog has the global experience, local knowledge, and comprehensive warehouse automation ranges to tailor end-to-end solutions to meet the diverse needs of industries looking to utilise automation to boost efficiency and productivity,” says Ulmamei.
“Rather than a piecemeal approach involving multiple suppliers, Swisslog can be a comprehensive warehouse automation partner that takes a holistic approach to receiving, storing, retrieving and preparing goods for delivery,” he says.
Technologies on display at CeMAT this year include:
- PowerStore pallet shuttle system for high density warehouses, designed to maximise space utilisation and throughput. The modularity of the PowerStore pallet shuttle system enables storage of up to 60% more pallets compared to manual systems. It can also be individually tailored for all shapes and sizes of warehouse buildings.
- AutoStore grid-based ASRS, for which Swisslog is one of the top integrators globally. AutoStore is a unique and simple solution that uses robots and bins to quickly process orders. It provides better use of available space than any other automated system thanks to its unique design that enables direct stacking of bins on top of each other and storage of multiple SKUs in a single bin. Over time, the system naturally learns which products have a higher rotation, storing them on the top layer to ensure faster picking times.
- SynQ software, Swisslog’s proprietary warehouse automation software which can perform the role of a Warehouse Management System (WMS), Warehouse Execution System (WES) and Warehouse Control System (WCS). SynQ provides total visualisation of the system in real-time, and allows for efficient and accurate troubleshooting, as well as optimising performance over time. It can, for example, position faster-moving products nearer the front of the storage system, for quicker access. Live demonstrations of SynQ software will be performed during CeMAT.
Experience automation in action at CeMAT
“We encourage logistics industry professionals at CeMAT to visit Swisslog at Stand A9 for live demonstrations that show how intelligent, end-to-end automation solutions can unlock greater warehouse efficiency, productivity, and sustainability,” says Ulmamei.
CeMAT provides visitors with a chance to see the future of intralogistics automation first-hand, but for those that are unable to attend, Swisslog has a number of advanced automated warehouses operating across Australia and New Zealand, and can organise tours of these facilities.
