Project Overview

 

The customer is a professional environmental equipment manufacturing enterprise that integrates R&D, production, and sales, and is one of China's large-scale suppliers of fume purification equipment. The original logistics design of the factory was very complex and consumed a lot of manpower. This time, they introduced Multiway Robotics' intelligent logistics solution with unmanned forklifts as the hardware products. The aim is to upgrade and optimize the factory's handling mode, improve logistics turnover efficiency, and increase the level of digitization. The project involves the assembly area, bending area, punch parts area, finished goods warehouse, and more than a dozen production lines. Unmanned forklifts are used to transport materials such as punch parts, purification box finished products, and fan finished products from the line-side warehouse to the production line.




Project Challenges

 

  • Numerous production lines exist, with different lines corresponding to different materials. Relying on manual delivery is time-consuming and labor-intensive.


  • Material information management is chaotic, making inventory checks and transportation inefficient, which affects the production speed.


  • Multiple production lines operating simultaneously, multiple tasks triggered at the same time, and the mingling of humans and machines make production management difficult.


  • Different stations on the production line have goods of varying sizes, requiring the scheduling of matched vehicle models for goods handling.



Solution

 

Based on customer’s needs, we introduced an integrated solution combining the "Pallet Stacker MW-SL14, WMS Warehouse Management System, and RCS Intelligent Dispatching System." This enables efficient vehicle dispatch, flexible task issuance, and optimal path planning, bridging the entire information and equipment flow, and effectively managing materials and inventory information.

 

This complete solution accomplishes fully automated intelligent handling throughout full process. It addresses the compatibility issue with over 40 different types of vehicles on-site; elevates the entire factory's production and logistics handling efficiency; and solves the client's challenges of labor shortage and high labor costs. With a focus on cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, it achieves automated, intelligent, informed, and transparent smart handling.

Project Benefits

 

  • Reduced Human Operation Costs: Automated logistics handling with 24-hour operations, continuously reducing staff and increasing efficiency.

 

  • Bridged Regional Business Divides: Seamlessly connected workflows across different areas such as the line-side warehouse, finished goods zones, and production areas.

 

  • Efficiently Ensured Production Efficiency: Achieved punctual production rhythms and adapted to various complex scenarios, including mixed human-machine environments.

 

  • Enhanced Level of Digital Management: The proprietary WMS Warehouse Management System was implemented, achieving digitized operational management.
