New multi-shuttle warehouse
The trading company Bünting has put its new warehouse into operation at its site in Nortmoor, Lower Saxony. As a consultant, ViaLog Logistik Beratung contributed to the successful completion of the logistics project.
The Dematic Multishuttle warehouse forms the heart of the retailer's current expansion of food and non-food items and represents an important step towards automation. The three-aisle shuttle warehouse with automatic conveyor systems offers 2,200 square meters of multi-deep storage with up to 75,000 bin locations for C-items from the dry range.
87 shuttles automatically store the items, buffer and sequence them and transport them to a total of eight picking stations. The relocation of around 4,400 items from the dry goods range and around 9,000 items from the e-commerce range to the new automated warehouse has relieved the pressure on the existing storage areas.
