Cube Storage - AutoStore™ empowered by Kardex

Overview

Kardex can implement this small-parts storage solution either as a standalone system or integrated into a comprehensive logistics concept, including additional warehouse automation technology. The AutoStore Ports can be combined with automated conveyor systems to enable seamless transport of orders to subsystems. Modular IT concepts are used to meet individual requirements. To operate the AutoStore Ports in a fully automated manner, Kardex can additionally integrate high-speed pick-and-place robots at the workstations. These robots optimize picking, consolidation, and replenishment processes. For smooth operations and minimal picking errors, Kardex combines AutoStore Solutions with the Intuitive Picking Assistant. This picking assistant visually guides the user through the picking process and detects hand movements to provide immediate feedback when an incorrect item is retrieved. AutoStore is a versatile Solution suitable for companies of all sizes and industries. Common applications include: E-commerce order fulfillment Just-in-time supply of production lines Micro-fulfillment solutions Retail and general merchandise Small-parts handling Kitting and assembly processes

How we calculate the even Score

The even Score (0 to 100) sets the order of solutions. It is based only on published reviews:

  • 85% quality: the average of performance, reliability and maintenance effort per review.
  • Recency: newer reviews count more. After one year, a review counts only half as much.
  • Smoothing: with few reviews, the value is pulled towards the category average. A single review cannot push a solution to the very top or bottom.
  • 15% recommendation: how many reviewers would recommend the solution (NPS logic).

None of this can be bought: plans, advertising and partnerships play no part.

„Starker Partner für die Entwicklung und Umsetzung neuer Logistikkonzepte“

Wie gut hat der Systemintegrator die Anforderungen eures Projekts verstanden und umgesetzt?

Kardex war der einzige Integrator, der sowohl die fachliche Tiefe als auch die Bereitschaft zeigte, eine vollständige End-to-End-Lösung für unser spezifisches Problem zu entwickeln. Die gemeinsam erarbeitete Lösung schafft einen effizienten Warenfluss und ermöglicht die konsistente Konsolidierung von Paletten- und AutoStore-Picks in einem integrierten Prozess

What is your overall impression of the solution?

Die Zusammenarbeit mit Kardex war in allen Projektphasen überzeugend. Vom ersten Konzept bis zur finalen Implementierung hat Kardex flexibel, lösungsorientiert und fachlich stark agiert. Neue Anforderungen wurden schnell aufgenommen und gemeinsam in effiziente, tragfähige Konzepte überführt.

Wie zufrieden bist du mit der Flexibilität des Systemintegrators bei unerwarteten Änderungen im Projektverlauf?

Sehr zufrieden. Im Projektverlauf gab es zahlreiche Fragen, Änderungen und Unklarheiten. Kardex hat in jeder Phase – von der Angebotsausarbeitung bis zur Implementierung – flexibel reagiert und war jederzeit bereit, pragmatische und gemeinsame Lösungen zu finden.

Wie gut wurden die zeitlichen und technischen Ziele des Projekts durch den Systemintegrator eingehalten?

Die technischen Ziele wurden vollständig erreicht. Bei der zeitlichen Umsetzung kam es zu Verzögerungen, die jedoch ausschließlich auf externe Faktoren – insbesondere streikbedingte Lieferausfälle an den Häfen – zurückzuführen waren. Das Projekt wurde global geführt und lokal umgesetzt. Dabei zeigte sich, dass die Kompetenzen der lokalen Kardex-Teams nicht in allen Regionen auf dem gleichen Niveau lagen.

Frequently asked questions

AutoStore Solutions stand out especially for their high goods throughput and optimal utilization of available storage space. With an uptime of 99.7%, AutoStore ensures high availability. What makes Kardex's AutoStore Solutions particularly compelling is the combination with the Intuitive Picking Assistant. It optimizes the picking process by projecting all relevant picking information directly onto the workstation (port), guiding the operator through the picking process. This means all retrieval information is displayed directly to the operator. In addition, Kardex also enables the integration of AutoStore Solutions with pick-and-place robotics. With these solutions, the AutoStore Ports can be operated in a fully automated manner by integrated pick-and-place robots. These robots are capable of executing various AutoStore processes, including pick-to-tote, pick-to-belt, pick-to-pallet, consolidation, and even replenishment. By using a gantry solution, a single pick-and-place robot can even serve multiple AutoStore Ports simultaneously — around the clock at high speed. In this way, pick-and-place robots take AutoStore systems to the next level of performance and contribute to an even higher return on investment. With Kardex FulfillX, an innovative warehouse management system, Kardex eliminates unforeseen risks during system implementation, enabling new AutoStore systems to go live faster.
