TGW Logistics Revolutionizes Order Fulfillment with LivePick

The intralogistics specialist TGW Logistics has developed an innovative system that revolutionizes order fulfillment. LivePick consists of a smart storage system where robots handle the storage and retrieval. Subsequently, mobile robots transport the goods to ergonomic picking workstations.

(Marchtrenk) LivePick can be scaled extremely quickly and adapted to changing conditions – and it also boasts a lead time of only six to twelve months. Adaptability is playing an increasingly important role in intralogistics. Companies must offer customers a high service level and short delivery times. At the same time, consumer behavior is becoming increasingly unpredictable, with the share of online and retail orders changing rapidly and being difficult to forecast reliably. A huge challenge that keeps many supply chain managers awake at night. In line with the motto “Stop just picking, start fulfilling orders,” LivePick is the smart answer to this development.

Scalable Order Fulfillment

LivePick is highly modular and consists of a source and a target area – which operate independently and are each divided into individual modules. In the source segment, robots manage the storage and retrieval in an innovative storage system. Subsequently, mobile robots take over the transport to ergonomic picking workstations. This combination enables order fulfillment that excels in flexibility. With over 50 years of experience as a system integrator, TGW Logistics understands both the source and target sides in detail and has tailored LivePick to customer needs.

Only Six to Twelve Months to Go-Live

All modules can be easily expanded – according to individual customer needs or business development and without interrupting ongoing operations. In the source area, storage capacity can be increased by expanding the shelving system, and additional robots can enhance performance. Has the number of orders to be processed significantly increased? The equally smart and quick answer: More mobile robots.

From contract signing to go-live, it takes only six to twelve months. A plug-and-play approach ensures a short lead time and minimal effort in commissioning.

Ideal for Different Sales Channels and Order Sizes

“LivePick sets new standards in terms of flexibility. The system is ideally suited for different sales channels and order sizes – whether e-commerce or retail,” emphasizes Christoph Wolkerstorfer, Chief Technology Officer of TGW Logistics. “Companies can quickly respond to changes in ordering behavior or business development with LivePick. Thanks to the modular concept, it takes only six to twelve months from contract signing to go-live.”
