Founded in as a printworks, Sigel has expanded into a prestigious, high-quality brand with an international presence, employing a workforce of around at their headquarters in Mertingen. With one warehouse at their headquarters in Mertingen and a second storage facility forty kilometres away in Augsburg, Sigel have a total of around 9, pallet slots including a modular shelving system and a block storage area. CIM carried out a series of calculations and evaluations for Sigel to highlight the benefits of dynamic storage convincing them in the end to decide for a dynamic warehouse: dynamic storage also known as chaotic or random storage means that specific articles in the warehouse are no longer stored at fixed locations but are put into storage wherever there is a suitable free slot at the time.
Based on size, weight and any other relevant characteristics, the software checks which storage location is most suitable for a specific article and proposes this location to the employee performing the storage operation. The system of dynamic storage uses free storage space more efficiently and enhances the capacity of the warehouse. Around 2, storage and retrieval transactions are made in Mertingen each day, with an average of and per day in Augsburg β predominantly full pallet transports.
Because they have goods stored both in Mertingen and Augsburg, it is important for Sigel to manage both sites in one system for easy and effective handling of stock relocations between the two warehouses.
All goods, regardless of whether they are produced by Sigel or purchased from a supplier, are entered as normal at the identification point I-point and can be placed in storage with two simple scanning transactions. Returns are also recorded at goods receipt. Returned goods are put straight back into storage as unscheduled goods receipts, and the host system is notified of the receipt.
