A fully automated cold store for meat products

The Spanish meat company ‪@carnicaschamberi7032‬ has made giant leaps forward in its frozen storage logistics management in Toledo. Mecalux recently designed, built and commissioned an automated warehouse that holds close to 1,700 pallets for the business. The Pallet Shuttle was the system of choice — which operates via a stacker crane — because it speeds up the movement of goods and also cuts down on the power needed to create cold conditions. https://www.mecalux.com/case-studies/... Automation plays a vital part in maintaining an unbroken cold chain for products. The warehouse is connected to production via a conveyor circuit and, before entering the warehouse, the pallets must go through a staging zone. This comprises an airlock system, with two asynchronous doors. In this way, the chamber is protected from sudden temperature changes caused by the unending stream of unit loads. Thus, those with the highest rotation are deposited at the more accessible aisle ends, to speed up their entry and exit. Meanwhile, other products are located elsewhere. Easy WMS also tracks all merchandise and provides real-time information on stock status. Warehouse managers can consult this information on-the-go and, consequently, make decisions to improve service.
