Automated Warehouse – for fast access to spare parts
Automated Warehouse – for fast access to spare parts
Spare parts and accessories used in picking processes are often stored in a dedicated spare parts warehouse. In small businesses, these are usually static systems, where employees must search for the needed items, pick them, and bring them to the staging area—following the “man-to-goods” principle.
This process is time-consuming and increases the risk of confusing similar-looking products. A more efficient solution is an automated warehouse for spare parts.
Such a warehouse is managed by a computerized system: the inbound and outbound movements of parts are fully automated.
An automated spare parts warehouse saves a significant amount of time and effort: needed parts can be requested via software, a rack-handling device retrieves the appropriate containers from storage, and delivers them to the picking station.
The employee picks the required items, and the container is automatically returned to the storage system. This reduces travel time and minimizes the risk of errors.
Storing spare parts in an automated warehouse
Storage within this type of automated system ensures high stock transparency.
It becomes easy to maintain a clear overview of the actual stock levels.
All work steps related to storing and retrieving parts are eliminated, saving time in picking and intralogistics. As a result, the workflow is optimized.
Maintaining competitiveness and customer focus
Especially when it comes to spare parts supply, fast and reliable processing is essential.
Delays in spare part delivery can be frustrating for customers and costly for businesses.
With an automated spare parts warehouse, access to required items is quick and simple, enabling you to meet customer demands promptly and efficiently.
