Sorbo invests in unique automated storage and order consolidation system
Sorbo is a supplier of non-food products, delivering large Dutch retailers. Sorbo in Duiven (NL) gave an order to Vanderlande Industries and RSW IP for the supply of an high end automated storage and order consolidation system. The system includes an automatic palletizer for dollies, roll cages as well as pallets. The system will be handed over in the 2nd half of 2009.
The capacity of the existing system was not sufficient anymore because of acquisition and autonomous growth. The installation of the new system will lead to more efficient handling and
The system consists of an order consolidation system based on 2 QUICKSTORE HDS automated storage and retrieval systems for cartons and totes. Every QUICKSTORE HDS can reach a throughput of 1.000 totes / cartons per hour. Second part of the system is an automatic mixed case palletizer for cartons and totes on dollies, roll cages and pallets. Products can be palletized automatically with a capacity of 2.200 per hour.
