AUTOMATED WAREHOUSES

A.I.M.E. Srl designs and makes fully customisable automatic warehouses for storing products in any industrial application. Made using the most advanced technologies, our solutions are customised to suit the client’s requirements, including the goods being stored, the handling systems (e.g. automated shuttles, stacker cranes, etc.), the degree of automation and its integration with existing processes. Our consultancy service examines all the technical aspects of the project to ensure that the solution is functional, efficient, and improves the client’s intralogistics. Vertical magazines, which store goods at varying heights, also optimise the use of space for storage while making the most of automated goods handling systems.

Automated warehouse for 20,000 hams

This automated warehouse is designed to store up to 20,000 hams. It is divided into two storage units, both housed in freezer cells, but at different temperatures. The racks are made of steel, the hams are handled by automated shuttles and conveyors, and the total installation takes up just 300 sq.m.

Automated warehouse for 50,000 boilers

This automated warehouse is designed to store up to 20 different types of boiler, for a total of 50,000 units. The steel racks are served by automated shuttles and conveyors, and the total installation takes up just 900 sq.m. Overhead conveyors run at 6 m above ground level to save space, using stacking cranes to connect the warehouse with the existing production line.

Automated warehouse for 45,000 automotive methane gas cylinders

The automated cylinder warehouse is a machine that automatically stores the cylinders. The automatic vertical warehouse saves floor space and minimises the overall dimensions of the installation. Composed of a steel load-bearing structure, the system is divided into a number of tiers for storing and picking tested and untested cylinders. Operators reach the different warehouse floors using stairs located at the two main access points. The automated warehouse can be easily incorporated in a testing plant or employed in a standalone solution.

Automated shelving for sheet metal

The shelving is designed to improve productivity, optimise material recovery times and reduce the risks associated with sheet metal handling. The vertical layout of the storage area allows for an optimal use of the space available, prevents damage to the material to be handled and optimises time management during works, reducing costs and dedicated labour. The load-bearing structure complies with earthquake regulations and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. The picking area with the shelf exit system always at the same height allows quick loading and unloading of sheets by means of forklift truck without the need for dedicated routes, while the touch-screen operator panel with user-friendly graphics makes the system versatile and suitable for every operating context. The shelving can be integrated into the company management system within the framework of Industry 4.0. It can also exchange data with other automated equipment, such as laser cutting. The shelving can be customised according to the dimensions of the sheet metal and the number of shelves required. The loading and unloading of the individual sheet can be automated and integrated into a production line.
