Automated Warehousing & Distribution Solutions

Designing a high-density, multiple deep AS/RS to fit our client’s mix of fast- to slow-moving products is nothing new to Westfalia. Our flexible designs are able to store pallets in multiple deep lanes up to 18 positions deep. This type of system design can be used in both “low-bay” and "high-bay" warehouses up to 140’ high.

Benefits of a high-density storage solution:

• Eliminate unusable space and height restrictions while increasing lane depths when appropriate
• Increase storage capacity and throughput using less space
• Allow for high-volume FIFO rotation
• Ability to accommodate both high- and low-inventory SKUs
• Are more flexible by combining varying storage lane depths and order selection activities within the rack structure

Our Savanna.NET® Warehouse Execution System (WES) features powerful, time-proven algorithms, flexible system interfaces, and intuitive user interfaces that provide you with the tools needed to efficiently manage your warehouse operations. Savanna.NET's FireFly tool allows operators to run all automation and inventory management functions of the warehouse from a single, graphical, easy-to-use interface.

We think you'll agree that the Savanna.NET® application suite is the best on the market and will provide the flexibility to integrate seamlessly with your existing systems/processes, while also providing any customized-as-needed functionality. Savanna.NET allows you to have total control of your inventory and warehouse operations.

It's no secret that pallet quality has been deteriorating, and two rails of support are oftentimes not enough for large palletized loads. That's why we decided to provide a third rail for industries that handle heavy pallet loads to avoid deflection for common wood and plastic pallet brands. This triple-rail support enhances both safety and reliability within our systems, while simultaneously reducing pallet and inventory damages.

As a vertically integrated company, we have complete control over the design and production of our equipment and systems. Made and manufactured in the United States with a completely in-house production and design process, we are sure to produce an automation warehousing and distribution solution that is customized for your specific needs. From initial contact all the way through aftermarket services, our team is dedicated to the continuous reliability of your automated system. In fact, the typical lifespan of a Westfalia S/RM is 25+ years!

The 24/7 tracking and tracing of product throughout the storage process will:

• Enable business growth and workforce flexibility
• Improve labor productivity and increase labor savings
• Increase order accuracy and delivery times

Simply put, automation is an investment that will benefit any company's bottom line. Many of our customers see a payback with warehouse automation in five years or less, with long-term IRR’s exceeding 20%.
