Skypod system for IT products supplier

07 October 2024

IT services provider Computacenter has implemented a robotic warehousing system from Exotec.

DUE TO an increase in small orders and a sharp rise in shipments, Computacenter needed to increase the efficiency and flexibility of its internal logistics processes. By using the warehouse automation system from Exotec, the company is able to overcome these challenges and ensure continued customer satisfaction.

Since summer 2024, 12 Skypod warehouse robots and two picking stations have been in use in the warehouse in Kerpen. Computacenter also relies on a conveyor system. With a system height of 11.70 metres and over 15,000 bins, the Skypod system achieves an output of 286 bin movements per hour. This enables Computacenter to significantly increase reactivity and performance, regardless of the item or order structure. 

Computacenter director logistics and technical services Holger Jander, says: “Exotec's Skypod system has exceeded our expectations. The scalability of the solution enables us to react flexibly to fluctuating order volumes and offer our customers an even better service. The system has significantly reduced our order processing workload and increased the efficiency of our logistics processes. The self-sufficient system and the option of remote access for maintenance also ensure smooth operational management.”
