Main Pain Points
Before automation, the project faced these operational pressures.
- Low-temperature food sorting requires considerable walking and manual decisions
- Equipment footprint must fit the downstream packing flow
Cold Chain
0°C cold chain compact sorting in a 30 m² equipment footprint
A food warehouse operating at around 0°C needs to reduce walking and manual decisions while connecting sorting, collection and packing in limited space.
- Industry
- Cold-chain warehouse
- Product
- 3D Sorter
- Delivery
- Delivered and in operation
- Key result
- 2,800 pcs/h | about 30 m²
01Project throughput of 2,800 pcs/h in about 30 m²
02Reduce walking and manual decisions and improve sorting-to-packing flow
Project Story
From operational pressure to delivered results
Solution Configuration
Tegene configured the solution around site flow, parcel profile and throughput goals.
- Configure a standard 3D Sorter with 48 chutes and two induction stations
- Plan around the approximately 0°C operating environment and packing workflow
03 / RESULT
Project Result
After the equipment and workflow were implemented, the project delivered clear gains in capacity, staffing or process coordination. Key figures are summarized above.
Who This Fits
Useful for similar industry customers, system integrators and warehouse operators evaluating sortation automation.
- Cold-chain food storage, transportation and distribution scenarios
- Warehouses where electronic seeding walls occupy too much area and manual sorting is inefficient
- Customers needing compact deployment, fast go-live and lower mis-sort risk
Getting Started on a Similar Project
If this project looks like yours, having site space, volume, parcel profile and system interface details ready makes it much faster to size the equipment.
- Warehouse area, available equipment zone, height, aisles and checking or packing area
- Average volume, peak volume, order waves, main destinations and growth expectation
- Parcel size, weight range, barcode/RFID recognition and induction mode
- WMS/ERP/MES, conveyors, custom automation and local integrator cooperation boundaries
