The solution and the results

System Logistics has proposed a high-density storage solution that leverages advanced automation to manage around 44,000 pallet locations in an area of 8,725 square meters, with a height of 29 meters. The warehouse is divided into three macro areas: inbound, storage and outbound. The inbound area is equipped with six points for inserting the pallets, which are then transferred to the warehouse via an SVL (Shuttle Vehicle Loop) system composed of 11 shuttles. The heart of the warehouse is made up of 12 stacker cranes, which manage the pallets on shelves with 13 variable height levels. This configuration allows for optimal use of the available space, reducing operating costs and improving workflow efficiency. The system can handle an inbound flow of 220 pallets per hour and an outbound flow of 160 pallets per hour. Overall, the warehouse is able to manage up to 12,000 different references, ensuring optimal and flexible storage and handling operations.
