The main benefits of automated warehouses include improved accuracy, increased throughput and productivity, lower labor costs, better inventory control space utilisation, and an enhanced safety environment.
Automated warehousing technologies like warehouse management systems provide real-time inventory tracking across all systems. This gives complete visibility and coordination of stock leading to improved inventory control.
Top automated technologies include Auomated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS), Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), robotic pickers, conveyors, Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Warehouse Execution Systems (WES) and Warehouse Control Systems (WCS).
Large warehouses with significant order volumes, frequent repeatable processes, and extensive inventory benefit the most from automation. High-density storage environments are also prime candidates for automated storage and retrieval systems.
Many systems can sort packages ranging in size from document envelopes to large boxes weighing up to around 50 pounds. Dimensioning technology can measure and accomodate various shapes and sizes.
High-speed systems can sort over 15,000 parcels per hour. The fastest systems have throughput exceeding 30,000 packages per hour.
Advanced scanning technology can read linear barcodes, 2D codes, addresses, and QR codes. Some systems can even capture information from handwritten labels.
Automated systems typically have sorting accuracy between 99.9% to 99.995%. This extremely high accuracy minimises costly delivery errors.
