Hedin Parts automated warehouse system AutoStore works successfully

In mid-January, we launched Autostore and have successfully delivered several orders, which are constantly increasing as the warehouse fills up.

AutoStore is part of our strategic initiative to manage the growing demand for an extensive range of products and increase storage capacity.

We will increase warehouse efficiency through AutoStore with 27 robots handling 40,000 bins. The AutoStore warehouse management system is controlled by intelligent software where robots perform optimised warehouse management, minimising picking times and increasing productivity. For Hedin Parts, this enables an impressive capacity of 950 order lines per hour, enabling more efficient deliveries to our customers across Europe.
