High-Bay Warehouse

Optimal Use of Space and High Throughput

A 4-aisle high-bay warehouse with more than 10,000 pallet spaces for single- and double-deep storage was erected next to the existing building. It was built in a cost-optimized silo construction and is primarily used for stocking the dry goods line. By constructing in upward direction, we were able to efficiently use the limited space available, thus achieving an optimal degree of space utilization. In addition, the concept takes the relevant expansion options based on forecasted growth into account.

Pre-zone

After goods-in, the pallets are each transferred to one of the four aisles of the high-bay warehouse by way of a pallet conveying system.

Storage

At the front of the high-bay warehouse, the energy-efficient SSI Exyz storage-retrieval machine takes over the pallet for each aisle and moves it to the corresponding storage location.

Retrieval

The SSI Exyz storage-retrieval machine retrieves the pallets from the high-bay warehouse and makes them available for picking via gravity roller conveyors.
