…Klappich’s dream. He already has automated storage shuttles from TGW, robotic putwalls from Kindred, robotic truck unloading from Boston Dynamics, and a storage and retrieval system Exotec dedicated to returns. The key to innovation success is identifying quickly whether a technology can be integrated into the flow, said Kuntz. At this point, a warehouse execution system from Vargo makes that possible in Gallatin. Or as Swisslog's Beringer pointed out, the challenge is to integrate each robot successfully so it performs well not only on its own, but as an integrated member of an automated handling system that fills orders accurately…

TGW Logistics Group GmbH today announced its Quba range of mobile robots for transporting totes, cartons, and pallets. The Marchtrenk, Austria-based company said they can handle a wide range of tasks, including supplying packing or returns workstations, as well as automatic palletizing and depalletizing stations. “Mobile robots are a key technology for high-performance, flexible, and future-proof material handling operations,” stated Harald Schröpf, CEO of TGW Logistics Group. “By expanding our range in the area of driverless transport systems, TGW now offers a full package of high-performance door-to-door solutions that can also be integrated seamlessly into existing systems, both on a…

…improve. “When we put in our first shuttles from TGW, it wasn’t easy because we were going from 100% human control to managing 44 shuttles,” he said. “The first three months weren’t easy, but our organization is really good at change management, and we were able to adapt the management of our flow to meet the need.” Gap’s experience with robotics also illustrates how this space is evolving. Kuntz noted that the first foray with Kindred involved fixed robots that did one thing. For now, Exotec’s robots are being used to process returns. However, the technology is mobile and could…

…by systems integrators such as AutoStore, OPEX, Bastian, Swisslog, TGW, and Kuecker Pulse Integration (KPI). “We haven’t done any marketing and surprisingly we don’t have any dedicated sales reps, yet we’ve deployed a large number of robots,” said Kalouche. “I think this is a testament to the high demand for what we’re building and to our product and how well it works. We let the robots speak for, and sell, themselves. To date, we have 100% customer retention and 100% repeat customers.” “With logistics and fulfillment experience at Amazon, iHerb and other retail companies, I've worked with a lot of…

…MHS announced plans earlier this month to acquire Michigan-based TGW U.S. Conveyors, formerly Ermanco, Inc., a division of TGW Logistics Group. That transaction is expected to close mid-February. In April 2017, MHS’s founders led the company through a recapitalization in partnership with Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (“THL”), followed by a series of acquisitions that expanded the Company’s global footprint, capabilities and product and service lines. “Kentucky has been a fantastic place to grow our global business during the past 20-plus years, and we are pleased to be expanding our presence in our home state,” said MHS CEO Scott McReynolds.…

…a win for them.” Start small, then scale: When TGW was moving into the United States, Gap Inc. agreed to test its mini-load technology to handle cardboard boxes rather than totes. “We started with just two aisles of storage in 2012 and were able to prove the concept,” Kuntz says. “Today, we have about 58 aisles across the network with more going in.” The same approach was followed with the Kindred robotic put walls, starting with two stations in Gallatin before expanding to six in that facility, and later scaling to a handful more at the Fresno campus. Ideas typically…
