Case study: Charter Next Generation; an AS/RS for a Large Variety of Products

Interlake Mecalux has built a new Automated Storage & Retrieval System (AS/RS) for Charter Next Generation with a storage capacity for more than 15,400 pallets of different sizesand turnovers. The installation is managed by the efficient Easy WMS warehouse management system by Mecalux, capable of maximizing the productivity of all operations being performed.

This new installation had to offer a large capacity, guarantee steady inflows and outflows of goods and provide very speedy operations. Moreover, for this type of warehoused product, total traceability of merchandise is essential to keep track of its status and location at all times, as well as to maintain excellent distribution, order and cleanliness. The project posed a huge challenge, due to the massive variety of different sized products and pallets Charter Next Generation operates with daily.
