How a smart buffer optimizes your production logistics

by Corinna Gutmann

Future-proof intralogistics: How to integrate your warehouse into flow processes

by Christian Beer

There were times when the two areas of warehouse and production were strictly separated like two kingdoms. Both worked side by side. Instead of the pull principle, the push principle was practised, warehouses were seen as isolated solutions. Although this is still often the case, it is no longer keeping with the times. Nowadays, an automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) should be fully integrated into the flow processes and serve as a production buffer. The ASRS should supply production areas directly and at the right time with the right material. This brings several advantages - and thus future security. As a result, the company remains competitive in the age of Industry 4.0:

Lean Management: for the production AND intralogistics of the future

by Thomas Bischof

Better, faster AND more cost-efficient sounds impossible? – It’s not! The solution: Lean Management in combination with just-in-time. While in the past the strategic decision was either in the direction of speed with a loss of quality, or accuracy and high quality with the aftertaste of slow processes, nowadays the entire process is taking on new forms. Lean consolidates the overall strategy of successful companies and we at Servus Intralogistics in Dornbirn support you on this path. With the Servus System, we facilitate your development into a Smart Factory.

The "invisible" warehouse

by Brändle Wolfgang

The autonomous robotic carriers from Servus Intralogistics are able to use the tracks on which they run for storage at the same time. This way, customers can have an “invisible” warehouse. Swiss wholesaler Hasler in Winterthur saved precious floor space that could be used much more sensibly.

Increasing efficiency in the warehouse by smart strategies in the ASRS

by Fehr Alexander

Smart management of the automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) starts with initial filling. Goods in the ASRS are mostly stored chaotically. Even for chaotic storage, the WMS (Warehouse Management System) will make sure that one and the same article is stored evenly distributed across all aisles of an ASRS during placement in storage.

The ASRS of the Future

by Dominik Kirchmann

Changing consumer behaviour makes products smaller and smaller, more customised and specific for individual customers. Batch sizes in production reduce and product variations increase as a consequence. In order to meet these requirements, production and processes need to adjust and become more efficient. In the best case, production would be just-in-time. This can only work if the warehouse and production are optimally coordinated with each other. The automated storage and retrieval system must be fully integrated into the material flow. This way, the necessary materials can be supplied to production just-in-time after the order is received, inventories in stock can be reduced and available areas can be used for value-added operations.
