The Weddeling warehouse in Germany with capacity for 4,876 pallets
Weddeling's facility in Germany stands out for its capacity, speed and productivity
Weddeling’s installation comprises two 7.5-metre-tall racking units with the semi-automatic Pallet Shuttle system. One block measures 55 m long and 11.5 m deep, while the other is 47 m long and 11.5 m deep. Each channel can accommodate up to 13 pallets.
With this high-density solution, Weddeling is able to store a very large number of pallets per SKU for each of its customers. The logistics provider stores 2,756 pallets measuring 800 x 1,200 mm and another 2,120 measuring 1,000 x 1,200 mm, totalling 4,876 pallets.
This system not only makes the most of the available space in order to achieve the storage capacity that this 3PL needed, but is also very easy to operate. Product entries and exits are speedy and require minimal operator intervention. The motorised shuttle is charged with moving the goods inside the storage channels.
As a safety measure, a passageway has been set up. Cutting crosswise through one of the racking units, it serves as an emergency exit. The top and sides of this underpass are protected by electro-welded mesh, which prevents the accidental fall of goods.
