Automation specialist Egemin has installed a fully automated warehouse system for Belgian confectionery manufacturer Kim’s Chocolates.
The solution will assist with the internal transport, automated storage and order picking of chocolate products at the company’s facility, 25 miles east of Brussels. Egemin’s system includes three automated warehouses for the storage of semi-finished products, packaging materials and finished products.
The warehouse system provides a turnkey solution for virtually the entire logistics flow at Kim’s Chocolates, consisting of: automated warehouse; automated guided vehicle (AGV) system with three counterbalance vehicles for transportation of goods; voice picking system on three picking floors; and E’wms warehouse software for warehouse management and control of all internal transportation.
The application also makes it easier for Kim’s Chocolates to handle packaging materials, ensure product quality and move products automatically.
