HÖRMANN Intralogistics: pioneering work for delivery services - a ground-breaking approach to fast and efficient delivery
Who hasn't experienced the convenience of having food, drinks or everyday products delivered directly to your home? Companies like flaschenpost.de have embraced this concept and face unique logistical challenges with their ambitious 120-minute delivery promise. To overcome this hurdle, flaschenpost.de relies on world-leading technology from HÖRMANN Intralogistics.
With over 30 warehouse locations serving more than 200 cities, flaschenpost.de needed a solution that ensured both efficiency and speed. HÖRMANN Intralogistics developed an unparalleled solution for this: AutoStore® systems for different temperature zones, which are brought together at specialized workstations. This technology is ideal for processing orders of refrigerated and non-refrigerated goods.
The success story began in Langenfeld with the pilot system and reached its next high point in Cologne, where HÖRMANN's 50th AutoStore® project was ceremoniously completed. Dennis Eirmbter, Project Manager at HÖRMANN Intralogistics, explains: "AutoStore® is a compact cube warehouse in which robots lift out containers and bring them to workstations. At flaschenpost.de, we have combined two systems: one refrigerated, one at room temperature - linked by combined workstations. Without this automation, the 120-minute promise would hardly have been feasible. The fact that we received the next order immediately after the pilot project was the best confirmation."
But the impressive solutions from HÖRMANN Intralogistics are not only available to flaschenpost.de. Customers such as Giesswein and Martini Sportswear also benefit from the innovative technology. "Whether in the Cologne delivery area, for orders from Giesswein or Martini Sportswear - an AutoStore® from us is often working in the background," continues Eirmbter. "The robots ensure fast delivery times, high performance in a small space and maintain their stability even during peaks such as Black Friday."
Eirmbter's conclusion illustrates the goals of HÖRMANN Intralogistics: "Our systems make everyday life easier - customers receive their goods quickly and reliably, and employees are relieved of physical strain. We create modern workplaces and solutions that improve the lives of many people. That motivates me every day"
HÖRMANN Intralogistics is setting standards in the industry and demonstrating once again how innovative technology can revolutionize processes. This is another step for the HÖRMANN Group, which is rising to the challenge and living its core values with drive and innovative spirit.
