Kuraray

Implementation of the iFD forklift guidance system at the Troisdorf site to control a total of 11 front forklifts in the shipping area.

Kuraray stores entire rolls of film in box form in a mobile racking warehouse. From there, the forklift drivers have to open the individual mobile racking aisles and remove the boxes. The iFD SLS bundles the shipping order and assigns this order to a forklift driver. A confirmation scan ensures that no goods are forgotten. The system has a streamlined storage location management system and notes the storage location of the shipping order on one of the covered collection areas.
The iFD SLS has a wide range of functions, including:

  • SAP interface via IDoc
  • Bundling of transport orders (associated with the shipping order) and digital, paperless assignment to the forklift driver
  • Distance savings through optimisation algorithms

 

  • WarehousePilot Execute
  • Chemical industry
  • Troisdorf

What our customers say

"The task was to completely digitise the picking and loading process. Together with iFD GmbH, we introduced a forklift guidance system, including an interface to our SAP system, to our complete satisfaction and absolutely on schedule. The cooperation was and still is absolutely constructive and professional. The iFD team is very flexible and creative. The project enabled us to reduce personnel costs by approximately 15% and save around 20,000 sheets of paper per year."
