Description

This project is an automated storage system implementation case for the raw material warehouse of a machinery technology manufacturer in Northern Taiwan. The equipment specification is a large 5-meter system with a single-load capacity of 300 kg. It is mainly used for the centralized storage, classification management, and inbound/outbound operations of high-value raw materials.

The customer originally used traditional racking for material management, which often caused issues such as time-consuming material retrieval, incorrect manual picking, insufficient space utilization, difficulty in material control, inventory discrepancies, and labor-intensive inventory counting.

In response to these challenges, JY STE Technology planned the implementation of a large 5-meter vertical smart storage system. Integrated with automated material retrieval, enclosed storage, access control, real-time inventory updates, and smart inventory counting functions, the system helps the customer improve raw material warehouse management efficiency.

After implementation, higher-value materials can be centrally managed through a systematic storage model, reducing manual search time and the risk of incorrect picking. At the same time, the system improves space utilization, inventory accuracy, and inventory counting efficiency, making raw material warehouse management safer, more precise, and more efficient.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Project Overview

The machinery technology factory originally relied on conventional shelving to manage a large and complex range of materials. This resulted in slow retrieval, difficulty locating items, manual picking errors, inventory discrepancies, and time-consuming stocktaking. Conventional shelving also occupied substantial floor space and limited effective use of the factory. JunYao Technology therefore implemented a 5-meter, 300 kg large-scale smart storage system to centralize high-value materials and introduce automated retrieval, enclosed storage, access control, and real-time inventory updates.

1. Management Challenges Before Automated Storage Implementation

Inefficient Conventional Shelf Management

The original storage method relied on conventional shelving, manual handling, and operator experience, resulting in inefficient material searching and management.

Material retrieval was time-consuming and items were difficult to locate

With numerous and complex material categories, personnel spent excessive time locating items without systematic positioning and inventory management.

Manual Picking Errors

Manual picking increased the risk of selecting the wrong item, missing items, or repeatedly checking materials, wasting labor hours and disrupting downstream operations.

Excessive Floor-Space Usage

Conventional shelving required extensive floor space, reducing factory utilization and restricting workflow and aisle planning.

Limited Control with Open Shelving

Open shelving made it difficult to restrict user access and provided insufficient control over high-value materials.

Inventory Discrepancies

Actual quantities could not be monitored in real time, resulting in differences between system records and physical inventory.

Labor-Intensive Stocktaking

Manually counting a large and complex range of materials required substantial labor and working hours.

2. Solution: 5-Meter, 300 kg Large-Scale Smart Storage System

Based on the factory's material-management requirements, JunYao Technology designed a 5-meter, 300 kg large-scale smart storage system. Its vertical storage configuration consolidates materials upward and reduces the floor area required by conventional shelving. The system also integrates automated retrieval, enclosed storage, account-based access control, real-time inventory updates, and smart inventory functions to reduce picking errors, inventory discrepancies, and stocktaking time.

Centralized High-Value Material Management

High-value materials are consolidated within the 5-meter smart storage system, improving security and management control.

Efficient Automated Material Retrieval

Automated retrieval reduces manual search time and improves inbound and outbound material-handling efficiency.
