viastore has implemented an efficient Warehouse Management System (WMS), warehousing and picking solution for German medical technology product manufacturer Bort.
viastore implemented a turnkey distribution center that consisted of a ten meter high bulk storage area with approximately 12,000 rack container locations with double deep storage and two viaspeed mini-load automated storage/retrieval machines (AS/RS). A 6.4-meter order picking section with about 11,000 rack locations and four additional viaspeed AS/RS, as well as an extensive conveyor system comprised the complete system. In the picking area, 1,442 pick channels with pick-by-light displays and an ergonomic high-performance pick station are available for order picking in eight zones. A high-speed loop ensures quick connections between warehouse, picking and packing areas.
Connected to Bort’s ERP Navision, the viad@t warehouse management system monitors and controls the inventories in the order picking section depending on demand. If stock drops below a certain level for a specific product, the WMS viad@t triggers a kitting process: Products, instructions and boxes are retrieved from the bulk storage area and delivered to one of ten pack stations where employees put together the items ready for shipping. The items are placed into blue containers which distinguishes them from goods that have not yet been made ready.
For over 40 years, viastore systems has been a leading international provider of automated material handling solutions including AS/RS (automated storage and retrieval systems) and conveyor systems, warehouse management systems software, material flow and process controls, and integrated SAP logistics solutions.
