<\/a>Autostore is the ideal logistics technology for automotive suppliers<\/p><\/div>\n
A major logistics project from the automotive supply industry with even greater potential<\/h3>\n
Upon entering the modern 25,000 square metre warehouse in R\u00f6thlein, it becomes clear that the interplay of logistics expertise, IT, technology and qualified personnel makes the decisive difference here. Up to 20,000 order items are processed every day. In addition to the robot-controlled, automated small parts warehouse, a pallet warehouse is also operated for larger goods and merchandise.<\/p>\n
Not much time passed between the contract and the go-live: on the one hand, thanks to Sch\u00e4flein’s industry expertise and technical experience. Secondly, thanks to the subsidiary EIKONA – a specialist in logistics IT. Interfaces and connections to the customer’s warehouse management system and SAP systems were ensured and the project started at the end of August 2021. Picking, order picking and dispatch of the aftermarket goods run quickly and efficiently. And growth has already been factored into this project. Expansion of the warehouse is also possible. This has a fundamental advantage for the customer: in the event of increased demand, they do not have to free up capacity such as space or personnel, as this is taken over and ensured by Sch\u00e4flein.<\/p>\n
“Customers can grow with Sch\u00e4flein. When the market and demand increase, we have the opportunity to scale storage, processes and transport,” explains Achim Sch\u00e4flein, CEO of Sch\u00e4flein AG.<\/em><\/p>\nSch\u00e4flein not only handles the warehouse logistics, but also the transport to the end customer: Most of the goods are dispatched directly via Sch\u00e4flein Spedition. As the freight forwarder’s transshipment centre is only a stone’s throw away, this is a huge benefit as it ensures fast and efficient delivery. This is also an important concern for Sch\u00e4flein: More intelligent networking and route planning to sustainably save emissions and resources.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Experience for the future – successful logistics for automotive suppliers<\/h3>\n
Sch\u00e4flein AG was one of the first logistics service providers in Germany to put an AutoStore storage system into operation. The reason for the joint project: the expertise and experience in implementing the robot-controlled small parts warehouse and integrating it into the respective system environments. With a contract term of 10 years, both companies are demonstrating that they see their collaboration as a genuine partnership. This also has a positive effect on the Mainfranken region.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sch\u00e4flein AG hired more than 150 new employees during the go-live, creating future-proof jobs. The trend is rising, because Sch\u00e4flein allows customers to grow flexibly. This is also confirmed by Achim Sch\u00e4flein: “We plan for the long term and together with our customers. This allows them to focus on their core competences and open up new growth areas. In the automotive industry, this applies in particular to the development of sustainable technologies. We are therefore happy to enter into such a partnership.”<\/p>\n
This awareness of sustainability is also reflected in the new project: photovoltaic systems supply emission-free energy.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
WHAT IS AN AUTOSTORE?<\/h3>\n
AutoStore<\/a> is an automated small parts storage system. The goods are stacked in bins (BINs) on top of each other and without aisles in an aluminium frame. Robots store the goods, dig them out when they are ordered and take them to the picking stations. The principle: the goods come to the people and not the people to the goods. The picking speed is enormous thanks to robot technology and the intelligent system. The AutoStore sorts itself through the ordering processes. The advantages: Considerable speed, high reliability as the robots can replace each other, energy efficiency and scalability as well as reduced space and labour requirements. This storage technology is therefore particularly suitable for spare parts logistics in the automotive supply industry.<\/p>\nWith 77,000 BINs, 54 robots and a picking speed of up to 20,000 picks per day, the Sch\u00e4flein AutoStore is extremely efficient – and the trend is rising.<\/p>\n
