Pain Points

1. The customer urgently needs to realize automation in the warehousing part and connect it with the company’s ERP system.

2. The customer’s products are maintenance spare parts for instrumentation production equipment, with many types and small batches.

3. The warehouse originally used traditional open shelves, which occupied a large area.

4. Manual management is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and requires dedicated warehouse personnel for manual management.

5. Some mechanical parts and maintenance accessories of different models are similar, and operators may make selection errors.solutionIn response to customers’ storage problems of various mechanical parts, Modula sales staff proposed the solution of installing three Modula LIFT series automated vertical warehouses with double-layer access after evaluating the factory site, different categories of mechanical parts and maintenance accessories, and the efficiency of personnel picking.

Solution

To address the customer’s challenge of storing a wide variety of mechanical components, Modula’s sales team evaluated the factory site, the different categories of mechanical parts and maintenance spare parts, and the efficiency of manual picking operations. They subsequently proposed a solution featuring the installation of 3 Modula LIFT automated vertical storage cabinets with dual-access ports.
