Stage Case study Schönenberger
More space, more speed, more power.

Premiere for the PowerCube at Schönenberger in Switzerland

Jungheinrich is building the first PowerCube for electrical and lighting expert Schönenberger on just 400 m2: 11 metres high, with 18,000 storage locations, 8 shuttles and an output of up to 150 picks per hour. If required, this performance can easily be boosted by adding further shuttles.

Challenges

  • Planning and realisation of the first Jungheinrich PowerCube in a very limited space
  • Lack of capacity in the existing warehouse and the operation of additional warehouses is too cost-intensive
  • Airtight construction of the PowerCube to comply with the strict fire protection requirements
  • Simplification of logistics processes due to the liquidation of the external warehouse

Solutions

  • PowerCube with 18,000 storage locations and 8 shuttles for increased performance and throughput
  • Energy-efficient shuttles for transporting two containers each with a payload up to 50 kg per container
  • Fulfilment of complex fire protection requirements thanks to built-in sensors for smoke detection
  • Fully automatic buffer section with conveyor technology for container transport to the PowerCube
  • WMS for controlling the movement of goods, as well as service and support from Jungheinrich

Successes

  • Optimum utilisation of space thanks to the PowerCube's design with a height of 11 metres
  • High productivity with up to 150 picks per hour, which can be further enhanced with additional shuttles
  • PowerCube enables customised in-house logistics without the need for external warehouses
  • Successful collaboration and rapid realisation in a construction period of just 4 months
  • Building the first PowerCube as a valuable learning experience for everyone involved in the project
