Forklifts Parts & Equipment deploying AutoStore solution to streamline fulfillment
Solution integration and software from SDI Element Logic tapped for the robotic automated storage & retrieval solution, which will go into a new facility next to FPE's Miami headquarters.
SDI Element Logic, a leader in materials handling systems since 1977, has announced that FPE | Forklifts Parts & Equipment, a leading supplier of OEM forklift parts, is installing an AutoStore solution in Miami, Fla., to optimize storage and enhance fulfillment efficiencies.
SDI Element Logic explained that the system will have over 27,000 bins, 10 robots, and five ports. FPE will use SDI Element Logic's purpose-built AutoStore software, eManager, to maximize the performance of the AutoStore system and provide an intuitive user interface at every port.
“As partners, we at SDI Element Logic are incredibly excited to join forces with FPE | Forklift Parts & Equipment in creating a top-of-the-line AutoStore unit because FPE has taken immense pride in providing their clients with the highest quality parts, accessories, and more for over three decades!” Josh Beckham, Account Executive at SDI Element Logic, said. “This partnership is not just a simple union, but a promise to elevate industry standards and create a future where efficiency and quality seamlessly intertwine.”

The addition of the AutoStore system will enable FPE to maximize storage density while minimizing the required footprint in the newly constructed building located next to their existing Miami headquarters, SDI Element Logic explained.
