AutoStore® ist ein modernes und innovatives System zur automatischen Lagerung und Kommissionierung von Kleinteilen in Kunststoffbehältern, entwickelt von Jacob Hatteland Computer AS aus Norwegen. Das System entstand aus der Idee, Volumennutzungsgrad, Dynamik, Energieeffizienz, Erweiterbarkeit, Materialeinsatz und Anbindung von Kommissionierplätzen im Vergleich zu konventionellen Automatischen Kleinteilelagern (AKL) oder Shuttlesystemen zu optimieren.

 

Was sind die Vorteile mit dem AutoStore®-System?

Mit seiner kompakten Lagerlösung, die auf Gänge und Regale verzichtet, reduziert AutoStore® den Flächenbedarf um 75 %. Die Behälter werden übereinander in Stapeln auf den Boden gestellt. Über den Behälterstapeln ist ein Fahrschienensystem (Grid) montiert, auf dem Roboter fahren. 

Unermüdlich nehmen sie Behälter auf, sortieren sie um und liefern sie zu den direkt angekoppelten Ports für Wareneingang und Kommissionierung. AutoStore® ist ein komplett modulares System, wobei die Anzahl der Roboter und Arbeitsstationen die Durchsatzleistung bestimmt. 

Als offizieller Distributor bietet HÖRMANN Intralogistics AutoStore® mit dem dafür maßgeschneiderten WMS HiLIS AS als Generalunternehmer an. AutoStore® kann als Einzellösung installiert oder in ein Gesamt-Logistikkonzept integriert werden.

Für Kundenservice und Wartung steht das HÖRMANN Intralogistics Team an 365 Tagen rund um die Uhr für Sie zur Verfügung.

Constantly increasing item volumes, along with ever increasing demands for fast and efficient order picking, pose new challenges for classic warehouse logistics. Working with SAFELOG, HÖRMANN Intralogistics has developed an innovative moving racks system for picking process automation, even for bulky goods, based on the goods-to-person principle.

Mobile transport robots (AGVs) transport the goods in modular racks, sequentially and just-in-time from the storage areas to the picking stations. HÖRMANN Intralogistics’  smart HILIS Warehouse Management System controls and monitors all picking processes to guarantee maximum performance.

 

The advantages at a glance

  • Reduced staff and walking distances
  • Flexible and modular expansion at any time with more AGVs or racks
  • Picking areas can be supplemented by support systems, e.g. pick-by-light
  • In multi-order picking configuration, the HiLIS WMS offers additional possibilities for increasing picking efficiency with intelligent batch formation.

What are Moving Racks?

Moving Racks replace or supplement traditional picking areas (man-to-goods) with high staffing levels and long walking distances, with an efficient, flexible system of modular shelving (racks) that are presented in a timely and sequential manner to the picking staff.

Rack transport from the storage areas to the picking workstations is carried out by mobile transport robots. This means that all system picking processes  are intelligently contolled  and monitored by software to ensure maximum performance and timely delivery.

HÖRMANN Intralogistics - Moving Racks
Equip your company for the advancing automation and use innovative solutions for warehouse logistics. With our moving racks and mobile robots, you ensure more efficiency in your picking operations and significantly increase flexibility.
HÖRMANN Intralogistics - Moving Racks
The high scalability is another advantage of the HÖRMANN Intralogistics Moving Racks concept: The system grows with the requirements. The number of mobile robots and racks can be easily adapted to increasing throughput and a growing variety of products, if required.
HÖRMANN Intralogistics - Moving Racks
HÖRMANN Intralogistics Partner Logo SAFELOG

Our Partner

The ever-increasing volume of items, added to the  ever-increasing demand for fast and efficient order picking pose new challenges for classic warehouse logistics. With a range of robotic solution it’s possible to achieve significant cost savings and increase resource efficiency.

In the ideal case, this would involve combining several systems, such as a automated CubeStorage system by AutoStore for storage and retrieval and an AGV shuttle system for the subsequent connection to the packaging line. For these, as well as for stand-alone scenarios, we work closely with our partner Safelog, which manufactures autonomous shelf-lifting robots.

The solution in detail

Storage Area

In the HÖRMANN Intralogistics Moving Racks system, the storage area for all goods consists of the individual racks on their storage spaces. Different types of standardised racks can be combined with various interiors (e.g. EURO pallet, shelf or grid) or configured as individual racks.

All standard racks have the same 1280 mm x 900 mm footprint and a height of up to 2500 mm. The moving racks are placed in a grid layout with travel paths in between in the storage areas. The grid layout can be flexibly adapted to different local conditions, around obstacles or in separated areas.

In addition, areas close to the pick zones can be reserved for fast-moving items.

Maintenance and loading area

Battery charging stations for mobile robots are built-in to the Storage Area, and can be distributed and placed according to the available connection options. This way, mobile robots on charge are available for transport operations without an additional approach route. The robots manage their charge status independently, and always approach the charging stations in good time.

Picking Area

The Picking Area consists of one or more picking workstations and associated buffer locations. Each picking area is connected to the storage area by defined travel paths. The workstations themselves can be individually designed.

In the standard configuration, a workstation comprises two rack storage locations. This means the rack that follows can already be staged during a pick process. The staging areas are separated from the MA work area only by stop bars on the floor, to permit optimal accessibility of the moving racks.

In addition to the rack staging areas, the workstation includes a work table with a flat-screen display showing the HiLIS picking interface and target locations for the picked items. Destination locations can be floor carts, conveyor elements or pallet locations for example.

HÖRMANN Intralogistics - Moving Racks

The control system allows omnidirectional travel, so that a robot can move in any direction at any time. This increases the operational flexibility of the vehicles, as they can be maneuvered in very confined spaces. It also makes it possible to turn racks on the spot.

Mobile AGV robots by SAFELOG

SAFELOG mobile transport robots are used to transport the racks. With a height of just 340 mm, these driverless transport vehicles are equally suitable for driving under the racks as they are for transporting pallets or wire mesh boxes. The weight of the Topload can be up to 1,500 kg.

SAFELOG has developed an agent-based control system for the mobile robots, through which the individual vehicles communicate with each other and with the surrounding production and logistics facilities. This ‘swarm’ intelligence of the transport vehicles controls both route coordination and task distribution between the devices. This means they do not require a higher-level control station for their operation. The software configuration is customer-specific to the respective requirements and linked to the HiLIS WMS for order control.

To achieve the highest possible technical availability of the overall system, various navigation types are available, and can also be used in combination. Depending on the application conditions, magnetic track, RFID tags, virtual track and contour navigation are used individually or together as a hybrid navigation system.

A new logistics warehouse has been built at the E. Hawle Armaturenwerke GmbH production site in Frankenmarkt, Upper Austria, in order to reduce the rented external warehouses as far as possible. The realization of the 5-aisle high-bay warehouse as well as the connecting conveyor technology has been taken over by HÖRMANN Intralogistics as general contractor. IGZ, the SAP engineers from Falkenberg in Bavaria, implemented the entire logistics processes in SAP EWM with direct control of the warehouse technology by SAP MFS.

 

Concept

In the new high-bay warehouse, raw and semi-finished parts are temporarily stored for production or for staging in shipping. The production connection is made directly from production via a new, double-level conveyor system for pallets. In addition, a loading and unloading station is planned in the outer wall of the new logistics hall, which can be reached from the yard with forklifts and is approached dynamically by SAP EWM in exceptional situations to ensure production supply at all times.

The 5-aisle high-bay warehouse is equipped with five aisle-bound storage and retrieval machines (SRMs). These have telescopic forks for double-deep storage. Three-bay side-by-side storage is provided per rack compartment. The storage and retrieval stacks of the high-bay warehouse are connected to a loop conveyor line that extends into the logistics hall to pick up or drop off goods. All storage and retrieval machines are equipped with a compartment fine positioning system that detects both the front and rear z-positions.

 

HÖRMANN Intralogistics - Reference HAWLE

Goods receiving and shipping for different load carriers

At goods receiving, normal load units are fed onto three conveyor sections with weight and contour control. Grid boxes are only fed onto the middle conveyor section. There, the loading station is fully automatically equipped with a wooden lower pallet onto which the wire mesh box is placed

The empty pallets required for this are held in stacks at a buffer station and transported individually towards the set-up station as required.

 

Highlights

  • 5-aisle high-bay warehouse 70 x 40 x 29 m (L x W x H)
  • 5 aisle-bound stacker cranes in single-mast design with telescopic forks for double-deep storage
  • 32 pallet insertions and removals per hour per stacker crane
  • Connecting pallet conveyor system
  • Fire protection and high-speed gates
  • Control technology with direct connection to SAP EWM / MFS
  • Plant visualization

When developing automation solutions for fast-moving business areas, it is essential that the systems perfectly adapt to the intralogistics processes and infrastructures. With our partner, CAJA Robotics, we’ve developed an innovative approach using modern software, specifically developed robots that operate according to the goods-to-person principle, user-friendly workstations and solutions for integrating an existing WMS or the in-house HiLIS WMS.

 

The advantages at a glance

  • More efficient order picking
  • Reduced order errors and increased inventory security
  • Reduced walking distances and manpower
  • Robot and cloud software-assisted, AI-based, fully automated order fulfilment
  • Scalable, modular architecture which responds lightning fast to order peaks or drops
  • Flexibly adaptable shelf structures as new lines of business emerge
  • Use of own bins possible
  • Simple commissioning

What is Caja?

Caja's transport and lifting robots handle goods-to-person logistics. In this configuration items from a picking warehouse are delivered with bins or pallets on software-controlled, intelligent robots. After the items have been removed from the storage location, the bins or pallets, either empty or filled with remaining items, are transported back to the warehouse and sorted there.

Starting on the German, Austrian and Swiss market, the partnership of the two companies focuses on the closest cooperation in order to offer and realize smart warehouse solutions. With the innovative and intelligent warehouse technology from Caja Robotics, HÖRMANN Intralogistics is further expanding its portfolio. The Caja Robotics solutions are designed to meet the special demands of highly dynamic warehouse processes. A particular advantage is that the Caja Robotics application

Our Partner

The partnership between the two companies, which began on the German, Austrian and Swiss markets, focuses on the closest possible cooperation to offer and implement smart warehouse solutions. With Caja Robotics’ innovative and intelligent warehouse technology, HÖRMANN Intralogistics continues to expand its portfolio.

Caja Robotics solutions are designed to meet the particular demands of highly dynamic warehouse processes. One particular advantage is that Caja Robotics applications are very flexible and scalable with high goods throughput. They can be easily implemented and adapted to the customers' existing frameworks, and offer immediate benefits coupled with our highly efficient, customised warehouse systems.

The solution in detail

Robots working together

The transport and lifting robots are connected to the backend via radio. Sensors determine their position and detect obstacles or interference. Using software, hardware, and sensors, they interact with their environment to maximise the output of the fulfilment process.

 

4D navigation

The robots are controlled by cloud-based, decentralised software with multi-layered algorithms. This guarantees the success not only individual isolated tasks, but optimisation of the entire warehouse operation as well . Through artificial intelligence and machine learning, the solution continually adapts to the conditions.

Autonomy

In certain processes, the robots make their own decisions without software commands. Aided by sensors, for example, they can react to events in the queue during order picking.

Temperature

To adapt to different industrial sectors, Caja robots are designed to operate in all temperatures, for example in cold storage for food. In sterile cleanrooms, automated transport robots offer great advantages.

WMS integration

Caja software seamlessly integrates with HiLIS and other existing WMS solutions, enabling accurate and time-optimised flow of goods.

Swarm management

The cloud-, algorithm- and AI-based software ensure continuous order, bin and fleet management of all robots located on the warehouse floor.

Ergonomic workstations

While being extremely automated, Caja Robotics nevertheless still depend on human-machine interaction. The fleet is equipped with user-friendly workstations, for performing tasks like inbound processes, replenishment organisation, returns, or bin consolidation.

Shelf adapter

The system includes Shelf Adapter Units (SAU) that simplify processes, eliminate decanting and extend bin life.

Operating equipment and systems safety through competent DGUV inspections

The acronym DGUV stands for the German Social Accident Insurance agency, an organisation of 27 accident insurance funds and nine commercial employers liability insurance associations. DGUV Regulation 3 regulates the testing of electrical equipment and systems used in industry.

On request, we can create a basic inventory of all devices to be tested or check the existing data. Our files include all devices. This way, customers prompt notice from us when the next test cycle is due.

The devices  are not only tested, but can be repaired immediately if necessary and according to budget. All documentation, including the legally required protocols, are available at all times - in hard copy format and, depending on the customer requirements, on server / data carrier etc.

This means our customers always work with approved tools and machines and, if necessary, are legally protected in the event of accident, given that all required tests are carried out and documented.

Interruption-free processes and production sequences through continuous maintenance

Regular maintenance and servicing is mandatory for ensuring trouble-free processes and production sequences. It is likewise fundamental for maintaining high production equipment availability, minimising downtime and saving costs.

To sustainably reduce downtime and prevent unscheduled maintenance, we offer preventive maintenance services at the highest level, through our team. We check and document the status of all machines and systems, evaluate them and use this information to identify when maintenance and servicing work needs to be scheduled at the earliest possible stage. This gives customers the advantage of being able to include maintenance and servicing work promptly in their production scheduling.

Of course, the team also takes care of the physical execution of all maintenance and servicing work. From inventory, to determination and calculation of individually coordinated maintenance intervals, to maintenance or repair work.

 

 

Industrial assemblies from single machines to production lines

With our specialised staff, we carry out mechanical and electrical industrial assemblies as complete service packages according to customer schedules and design specifications.

We see ourselves as a general contractor, organising all the necessary assembly equipment (including crane, forklift, lifting scaffolding, tools), to ensure professional and timely execution. This also includes utility installations like air and water.

Customers are accompanied by a single contact all the way up to commissioning and, if required, we can provide support through ongoing production assistance. Among others, our reference projects include installations for the automotive and supply-chain industry, materials handling, machine tool and packaging industry. We also offer experienced support for decommissioning services, including the professional disposal of all materials.

Machine relocation

The relocation of machinery and equipment presents many significant challenges to companies. From planning to logistics and the actual implementation, the necessary human resources and technical equipment are often lacking, meaning that even an in-house machine relocation can quickly become a difficult task to solve. This is where you need a strong partner.

Whether it’s machine relocation in the course of production changeovers, the relocation of complete manufacturing systems and production lines or the relocation of entire systems, we have been offering our customers all services from a single source provider for over 40 years.

Up to re-commissioning at the new location, we offer customers all services in the areas of planning, decommissioning and recommissiong, including loading and transport. This avoids interface losses and guarantees a smooth operations, monitored by our engineers throughout the entire process.

Machine relocation (in-house)

Modularity in the design of machines and systems has increased significantly in recent years. Modern production systems must have a high degree of flexibility in order to respond dynamically to new conditions, such as new manufacturing specifications. This often results in the need to realign the machinery. Machining centres, conveyor technology and packaging systems can be rearranged on the factory floor.

What sounds simple at first glance in reality requires professional planning, just as with an off-site relocation. In addition to the electrical and mechanical dismantling of the machines, the precise preparation of the new positions on the factory floor is crucial for a smooth start-up.

HÖRMANN Intralogistics Services - Machine relocation
