Due to growing customer demand, Ludwig Meister has expanded its AutoStore™ system twice between 2016 and 2022! 🚀 What started with 20,000 bins and 14 robots in 2013 (thanks to Swisslog) at their Dachau warehouse, has now grown to a mighty 60,000 bins and 37 robots after two major expansions—first in 2016, then in 2022. A standout feature to me is their innovative goods-in solutions: ⏩ Some products are inducted via Conveyor Ports at the top of the grid—saving time for the robots to drop and retrieve bins. ⏩ Other products are processed at independent workstations on the ground level, conveyed to an AutoStore™ Bin Lift, lifted onto a mezzanine platform, conveyed to an AutoStore™ Transfer Cell, and handed off to one the many robots for storage. The combination of the pick-to-light system at the carousel ports, the AutoStore™ system itself, and Ludwig Meister's in-house developed interface has not only tripled their order-picking speed but has improved order accuracy, reduced storage time, and enhanced on-time delivery. 🎯 Here are some key numbers from their operation 🔺 60,000 bins subdivided into 100,000 storage locations 🔺 97% of 80,000 SKUs stored in the AutoStore system 🔺 37 R5 robots 🔺 12 carousel ports for picking 🔺 13 conveyor ports for goods-in 🔺 2 transfer cells 🔺 6,000 picks per shift 🔺 99.96% uptime Curious to learn more?
