Warehouse Technology & Storage Systems

Warehouse technology and storage systems decide how much you can hold in a building and how fast you can get it out again. LVP Automation supplies automated storage and retrieval systems, shuttle systems, sorting technology and automated warehouse robots to distribution centres and manufacturers across Ireland.

Automated storage and retrieval systems and shuttle systems use height rather than floor area, storing goods densely and presenting them to the picker instead of the picker walking to them. That removes most of the travel time in a manual operation and makes stock control far more accurate. Sorting technology takes a mixed flow and routes it to the right lane, chute or bay at speed, which is what makes single order picking viable at volume.

These systems work best when they are designed together with the transport around them. Our engineers model the product profile, order profile and peak rates before specifying equipment, so the buffer sizes and rates actually match the business rather than a brochure figure. Storage and sortation integrate with conveyor systems, autonomous mobile robots and pallet handling. Contact our Dublin office for a feasibility discussion.
