IKEA Components, an IKEA subsidiary dedicated to packaging and delivering accessories and components for furniture, has modernised its supply chain to stay ahead of the competition and meet growing demand. www.mecalux.com/case-studies/...
Mecalux has installed trilateral stacker cranes and pallet conveyors in each of the 12 aisles of its warehouse, in addition to Easy WMS.
🔊 Pavol Masarovič, Operations Manager at IKEA Components Slovakia - "Our main requirement was to design and equip the warehouse with automated systems. We used to manage our facility manually. Now that it’s automated, we no longer have to concern ourselves with pallet movements - the automatic equipment does this for us."
Main characteristics of the IKEA Components logistics automation and digitalization project:
- Comprehensive Modernization: IKEA Components underwent a comprehensive modernization of its supply chain to meet growing demand and maintain competitiveness.
- Efficient Automation: The project introduced efficient automation with trilateral stacker cranes, reducing manual labor, and enhancing 24/7 operation.
- Real-time Inventory Management: Mecalux's Easy WMS software enabled real-time inventory tracking, optimizing stock management and order fulfillment.
- Phased Implementation: The project was implemented in four phases, minimizing disruptions to warehouse operations and ensuring a smooth transition to automated systems.
IKEA Components has boosted its growth rate through technology, integrating manufacturing and logistics automatically. The company moved into Industry 4.0 to control its processes more rigorously, provide more efficient service, and take on future challenges with autonomy.
🔊 Frantisek Stora, Managing Director at IKEA Components Slovakia - "Our relationship with Mecalux has always been very professional. We’d already worked together prior to this ambitious project. But after automating our facility, we could say we’re more impressed by Mecalux’s effectiveness."
