Why choose F.A.ST?

Why choose F.A.ST? No other automated warehouse is more effective in:

  • Separating manufacturing from warehouse: Single objects coming from production (or external suppliers), following a convenient sequence imposed by the production cycle, are aggregated "by customer" by the system itself and stored as already "by customer". At the moment of shipment, in a time equal to one plant cycle, the entire bay content is picked up and transfered to the truck loading area. It is important to underline the fundamental edge given by independence of manufacturing activities of warehouse policies, which virtually allows for stocks based on what is actually sold.
  • Storing in the same bay objects differing in size, shape and weight.
  • Avoiding the handling of empty pallets (or slave trays or containers).
  • Increasing storage density, in comparison to a traditional automated warehouse which is constrained to operate with pallets (or slave trays or containers).
  • Avoiding that the activity of "by customer" product aggregation accomplished by the system could hamper the handling capacity of the warehouse itself.
  • Just in time modification of the retrieval sequence, based on possible sudden changes in shipment schedule.
  • Possibility to organize manufacturing by economic lots, so avoiding frequent assembly lines set-up.
