With its new automated small parts warehouse which operates with shuttle technology, Diesel Technic has embarked on a road of efficient and space-saving warehousing and, as a result, better and faster availability of products. The supplier of automotive parts and accessories have done all this for the benefit of its worldwide customers.
Diesel Technic knows how important a quick and secure supply chain is – the company’s products must always be in the right place at the right time in order to keep vehicles and therefore also businesses moving. Thanks to the new automated small parts warehouse with its shuttle technology, customers benefit from optimised quality of delivery as well as flexibility in warehouse performance. This makes it possible for the company to adapt its inventory as closely as possible to the needs of the market.
“With this investment, we reinforce our core business and, thanks to increased picking services, offer our customers an even more reliable service. It is important to us to be forward-thinking – the new warehouse offers a high degree of scalability”, says Thomas Kaps, Executive Manager Logistics at Diesel Technic.
The four-aisle, approximately 17.5m-high automated small parts warehouse has over 40,000 containers that contain more than 12,000 different items. The 148 shuttle vehicles can handle a high number of storage and retrieval processes in a short time – thus guaranteeing faster order processing and delivery times.
