Challenge

Challenge

Fastener wholesaler Fabory supplies high-quality bolts, nuts, and screws to all of Europe from their central warehouse in Tilburg.. However, replenishing the pick stock in their miniload system was a hugely time-consuming process, sometimes taking a full day or more.. After the construction of a new narrow-aisle warehouse directly adjacent to the central warehouse, the request to TBWB was clear: design a system to transport heavy boxes safely, automatically, and quickly from the bulk storage to the miniload system.. The major challenge was bridging a height of 4.5 meters within a very confined space, with the strict requirement that the heavy boxes (weighing up to 28 kg) absolutely could not tilt, preventing the bolts from rolling and the boxes from deforming..

Solution

TBWB designed and installed a highly efficient, compact depalletizing and conveyor system that flawlessly connects the roller conveyors of both warehouses.

Our delivered solution provides Fabory with the following benefits:

  • Shorter lead times: Replenishing stock now takes only a few hours at most, instead of a full day.

  • Safe and upright vertical transport: The innovative Qimarox Prorunner mk5 vertical conveyor lifts the boxes perfectly upright.. This prevents heavy bolts from rolling around inside the boxes, eliminating the risk of deformation or falling hazards..

  • High capacity & modular flexibility: The system can effortlessly process 600 boxes per minute.. When the lift later needed to reach a higher elevation, the machine was easily and quickly extended by an additional meter thanks to Qimarox's modular design..

  • Automated pallet handling: A smart robot depalletizes the boxes onto the roller conveyor, while the integrated Qimarox Pallet Dispenser PD1 immediately and neatly stacks all empty pallets.

  • Maximum reliability: The system excels in its compact footprint and utilizes effective, low-maintenance technology that guarantees minimal downtime.. The success is so big that TBWB has been commissioned to immediately implement another system with a Qimarox Prorunner mk1 pallet lift for the next project at Fabory!

The result? A significantly faster, safer, and more reliable inventory process, enabling Fabory to continue delivering the right quality to its customers across Europe at lightning speed!
