Dematic installs autostore facility in Switzerland
Dematic will implement an autostore automation system for Swiss tool manufacturer Applitec Moutier. The developer and producer of high-end cutting tools has contracted Dematic to automate a new building at its central warehouse in Moutier (canton Bern).
In future, storage and order collection will be performed by means of an automatic small parts storage facility, which is expected to be operational by October 2020.
As with all autostore solutions developed and installed by Dematic, the system used in Applitec Moutier is designed to keep pace with the company’s future growth. For example, storage capacity may be increased by expanding the aluminium grids and installing additional robots without having to interrupt operations in the warehouse. (mw)
