Problem Statement

The Requirement

One of their dedicated Finished Goods (FG) warehouse serving a global apparel brand follows the conventional methodology of batch-wise case stacking (lot) at ground. The warehouse was gasping for floor space to handle the increasing turnaround of FG stock and this was affecting the accessibility to every lot and handling productivity. i.e. Current capacity of 1,60,000 cases to be doubled and minimum 250 cases per hour have to be retrieved, moved and loaded in a 40’ Container. The requirement was to follow the current storage method with the creation of additional space within the same facility with 100% accessibility to every lot and to complete the container stuffing within 2 Hours Vs 4 hours which was incurred earlier.

The Solution

  • Three Level Modular Mezzanine structure (G+3) for storage lot systematically and ergonomically.
  • High Speed Case Handling Vertical Conveyor with 300 Cases per hour integrated along with the input / output feed conveyors at all levels.
  • Pallet / Trolley handling Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor (VRC) for inward to floors.
  • 100% Adherence to their buyer’s safety requirements and norms without compromising the storage method as required by the customer.

Benefits to the customer

Outward movement right from picking the case from storage location to the container stuffing was achieved within the desired turnaround time of 2 Hours irrespective of vertical handling.
