Embrace Warehouse Automation with Armstrong

The current times require faster and more efficient operations. Time is of the essence, and the increasing manufacturing demands and customer expectations put companies on a time crunch. Warehouse automation is a new approach to managing warehouses. It transforms storage facilities and boosts operations using robots and automation systems. Armstrong understands the need for better and more advanced solutions and provides a time-saving, cost-effective system that generates accurate and precise results without manual labour.

What Does Automating Warehouses Entail?

Warehouse processes entail repetitive functions that consume time and often contain errors when done manually. Automating warehouse operations enables a more efficient method of organising storage facilities.

• Automates Goods Extraction: Locating products and items in huge storage areas takes time. Automated Storage and Retrieval systems, such as shuttle ASRS and crane ASRS, use robotic devices and computer-run software to store and retrieve items from the correct aisle and rack swiftly and safely.

• Automate Warehouse Machines: By automating the warehouse, you remove the need to lift heavy equipment like forklifts manually. Instead of warehouse employees using their strength to operate these machines, automated machines work digitally, saving equipment costs and the need for a manual workforce.

• Managing Inventory: Armstrong understands that managing inventory is a tedious process. It automates order entry, ensures accurate and precise inventory processing, and prevents products from being lost or misplaced.

• Automates Shipment: With warehouse automation, you can incorporate the DWS System (Dimensioning, Weighing, and Scanning) into your operations. It allows you to digitally measure a parcel’s weight and dimensions and scan its barcode for secure and precise shipment.

How Does Warehouse Automation Work?

• The first step toward automating warehouse operations is combining hardware and software components.

• The next step entails running the operations through a WMS (Warehouse Management System) to handle inventory, study data, and automate manual tasks.

How to Implement the Best Automation System

Since there are various automation mechanisms, consider the following factors when installing the suitable one for your warehouse:

• Labour costs

• Resource availability

• Customer service, requirements, and expectations

• Scalability and adaptability

• Application durability and sustainability
