Automatic tugger train loading for a efficient production supply

For additional information on this Best Practice please refer to: https://www.psb-gmbh.com/industries-r... The intralogistics solution for production supply consists of a picking station and special tugger trains that are automatically loaded and unloaded by the station, as well as an intelligent software control system. The automated small parts warehouse, which has been also implemented by psb, supplies the production with bins containing the necessary production material. The bins are transported to the order picking station by means of a conveyor technology and at the station they are pre-sorted to six sorting lanes. When the material for one production order is complete, the station pushes the bins (three rows above each other) onto one of the transport carts. The carts are combined to a tugger train and are transported to the requested positions in the production area. When assembly has removed all necessary items, the transport carts are returned to the station and there they are transferred to the conveyor system. The carts move to an automated unloading device, which identifies the bins and pushes them to the return track leading to the small parts storage. By a weighing process, the station automatically compares the actual remaining quantities with the calculated consumption. With this station, Dornbracht, manufacturer of premium design fittings and accessories for bathrooms and kitchens, has significantly increased the efficiency of its assembly supply: flexibility and speed of material supply has been increased as well as constant picking performance and greater transparency in the order control have been achieved.
