Large components, great care
An absolute precision job: During construction of the 6-aisle high-bay warehouse, the mast and stacker crane are brought into the warehouse via the roof using a crane, before being bolted together.
Quality? Check!
During the test operation, Jungheinrich carries out quality checks on the shuttle motors in the new 2-aisle shuttle compact storage system. A routine job for the experienced team.
Intelligent Warehouse Management
The Jungheinrich WMS revolutionises material flow through the use of artificial intelligence (AI). This enables intelligent and comprehensive management of all complex warehouse areas, including the integrated storage technology.
A last test
Before commissioning, the system is put through its paces: Jungheinrich simulates live operation and tests container and pallet materials handling equipment, as well as container introduction. Everything runs smoothly and the customer is satisfied.
