Raymond West Intralogistics Solutions Automates Distribution Center for Leading Northwest HVAC Supplier
Raymond West is launching a state-of-the-art automated distribution center featuring warehouse robotics and other advanced warehouse automation technologies for the Pacific Northwest's largest HVAC supplier.
Raymond West Intralogistics Solutions, a leader in material handling and logistics automation, has begun the implementation of a groundbreaking automated distribution center project for the largest HVAC supplier in the Pacific Northwest. This state-of-the-art facility integrates cutting-edge technology to enhance efficiency, reliability, and customer service in the HVAC distribution sector.
The project began in November of 2024 and is expected to be completed by November of 2025.
James Wilcox, CEO of Raymond West Intralogistics Solutions, commented on the project: "This groundbreaking automation project exemplifies our commitment to delivering optimized end-to-endless intralogistics solutions. By leveraging cutting-edge technologies like the Movu Atlas 2D pallet shuttle rack and Opex Perfect Pick systems, we're not just improving efficiency - we're revolutionizing how HVAC distribution centers operate in the Pacific Northwest. This project will set a new standard for the industry, showcasing how automation can address complex challenges while significantly enhancing customer service and operational performance."
The project aims to maintain immediate and reliable customer service to building contractors throughout the Northwestern United States. By implementing fully and semi-automated storage systems for pallets, cartons, totes, and trays of HVAC components, the new distribution center addresses the challenges posed by the wide variation in product sizes and weights.
Key Features of the Automated Distribution Center
Automated Pallet Storage [https://www.raymondwest.com/automation/automated-storage-and-conveyor-systems]: The facility incorporates the Movu Atlas 2D pallet shuttle rack system, enabling fully automated high-density pallet storage. This solution optimizes warehouse space while ensuring efficient inventory management and productivity.
High-Density Storage for Medium Sized Parts: The Opex Perfect Pick system has been selected to consolidate and pick their medium sized parts, utilizing iBOT Registered wireless robots to deliver inventory directly to operators. This automated storage and retrieval system maintains high-density storage without compromising on efficiency.
Modular High-Density Storage for Small Parts: Small parts are stored in four Kardex Remstar [https://www.raymondwest.com/automation/automated-storage-and-conveyor-systems/kardex-remstar] Vertical Lift Modules (VLM's). These vertical storage machines utilize large sub-divided trays with pick-to-light technology to efficiently deliver inventory to the operator and automatically store the trays with less than 1" of space between product and the storage tray above, typically saving 80% of floor space compared to shelving.
Automated Horizontal Pallet Transportation: The distribution center features autonomous mobile robots [https://www.raymondwest.com/automation/autonomous-mobile-robots] (AMRs) to safely interact with staff and other moving equipment while increasing productivity. These versatile vehicles provide horizontal transportation of order pallets from various picking areas to the shipping and production area.
Oversized Pallet Storage and Transport: Bastian CB18 automated guided forklifts (AGFs) have been deployed to efficiently move and floor stack oversized materials of various shapes and sizes across the facility. These AGFs improve product and employee safety, optimize facility space utilization, and enhance inventory tracking.
Benefits and Impact
These advanced automation solutions are expected to yield significant benefits:
* Reduced labor requirements and increased operational efficiency
* Improved accuracy and reliability in order fulfillment
* Enhanced safety for employees and products
* Optimized space utilization within the distribution center
* Faster and more responsive customer service for building contractors
Raymond West Intralogistics Solutions' innovative approach to this project demonstrates its commitment to providing cutting-edge automation solutions that address the unique challenges of the HVAC distribution industry. This successful implementation sets a new standard for efficiency and reliability in the sector, positioning the client at the forefront of distribution technology in the Pacific Northwest.
