Inventory must be available at all times and deliveries are becoming ever faster. For this to be possible, companies must Optimize your intralogistics processes. Customers want lower prices and better service, both in-store and online. This is only possible with tailor-made solutions.
What are the biggest challenges in intralogistics in the fashion industry?
- A efficient operation in omnichannel sales.
- Same day deliveries or next day for online orders.
- Previous classification of goods when it comes to branch deliveries.
- Constant availability of productsIt should be noted that collection changes often occur.
- Optimized storage and handling a wide range of products and formats.
- Flexible top management seasonal and daily.
- Reverse logic efficient and fast.

- Automatic handling systems to improve process efficiency.
- solutions WAMAS and SAP software for the management of warehouses of any kind.
- WAMAS KPI and dashboard toolin addition to a control center with which complete transparency in operations can be achieved.
Let’s take a closer look at some of these solutions.
Highly dynamic shuttle warehouse
Our 3D matrix solution offers highly dynamic buffering and sequencing in a single system.
Placing elevators in the hallways will eliminate congestion in the changing areas. This allows separate processes to be carried out in three directions at the same time. This increases productivity and performance.
Each picking location receives products from every part of the shuttle warehouse, and a big advantage is that the available space is used optimally.
The Finnish department store chain Stockman and the German group Beelinespecializing in jewelry, are among the companies that are already taking advantage of the benefits of 3D matrix integration.
Automatic control vehicles WEASEL and RackBots
The WEASEL AGV can transport containers, boxes, trays and hanging goods, making it a universal intralogistics transportation system that carefully and safely delivers each product to the desired destination. Thanks to the control developed by SSI SCHÄFER, integration into operation is quick and easy and compatible with existing SGAs.
Mobile robotics is an ideal tool for meeting the high demands of e-commerce. As demand continues to change, the design of distribution center operations has evolved to achieve the agility and resilience required. For this reason, flexibility and scalability are the concepts most sought after by logistics professionals.
Our RackBots combine the flexibility of an Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) with the capabilities of an Automatic Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS).. They are attached to a crane that is equipped with a load-carrying device and enables containers, trays and boxes to be brought in and out of conveyor belts, shelves as well as work and picking stations.
Among the companies for which we have developed personalized mobile robotics projects is the French leather goods company Longchamp and the popular fashion brand Unequal.
