For aluminum profile manufacturers, the storage of ultra-long profiles has always been a major problem in warehouse management. The main aluminum profiles of Chengdu Zhuanchuang Aluminum are 6.02 meters long, and the weight of a single piece far exceeds the manual handling threshold. The disadvantages of the traditional manual warehousing model are infinitely magnified here: not only does it waste a lot of factory space, accessing and retrieving materials rely on manual memory, which is labor-intensive, time-consuming and inefficient, but also often causes surface damage to the profiles and personnel safety risks due to collisions during manual handling. High labor costs also further compress the company’s profit margins.
In response to the pain points of the industry, the honeycomb aluminum profile intelligent warehousing system provides a brand-new solution. The smart library uses industrial aluminum profiles to build honeycomb-shaped independent storage units. It relies on the system to automatically partition and classify profiles of different models and specifications. Each honeycomb unit is equipped with an exclusive electronic tag to achieve accurate binding of inventory information.
The entire storage and retrieval operation is automated: when entering the warehouse, only a forklift is needed to transfer the entire batch of profiles to the mechanical connection area. The custom-made reclaimer with a gantry truss structure is paired with a non-standard stacker and a special material frame to complete the automatic shelving of profiles of 6 meters or even longer. When leaving the warehouse, the system quickly locates the target profile according to the order instructions and automatically completes the picking and transfer, without manual intervention and registration in the entire process. The system will automatically update the inventory data, and the accounts and physical objects will be synchronized in real time. Subsequent inventory counts can be completed by simply exporting data from the system, significantly reducing management costs.
This smart warehousing solution maximizes the potential of three-dimensional space through a vertical multi-layer layout. It can increase the space utilization rate by more than 50% compared with traditional flat storage, and at the same time more than doubles the access efficiency. It not only solves the storage problem of ultra-long profiles, but also helps enterprises achieve the goal of reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
