Automotive parts
Automotive parts plants handle many part numbers at a fixed takt with little space at the line, and ship finished goods to their customers' call-offs. These are the usual flows from the store to the line and from the line to the dock.
Typical tasks
- Bringing raw materials and bought-in parts from the store to the lines
- Keeping small parts next to the line and releasing them by work order
- Moving work in progress between processes
- Packing, palletising and shipping finished parts
Equipment to look at first
What to send us: Part numbers and carriers (totes, carts, racks), material flows and takt per line, the layout with aisles and turning space, and your MES / ERP interface needs.
Common questions
Tugger AGVs or tote AMRs for line-side supply?
Tugger AGVs are common when several carts go out at once to fixed stops; tote AMRs are common for frequent small deliveries that dock to station conveyors. The choice depends on volumes, aisle widths and turning radius.
Can the equipment connect to our MES?
The equipment comes with its own dispatch software, which can be interfaced to your MES / WMS for call-offs and tasks. The interface is defined in writing in the project.
