Recently, Zowell Forklift team visited a pharmaceutical enterprise customer, the customer purchased our two sets of three-way forklift trucks, at present two forklift trucks have been used in the customer's place for more than 8 months.
Part one:Customer Background
The client is a highly competitive pharmaceutical company in the industry with pharmaceutical retailing as its main business. It has diversified businesses such as professional pharmacies, convenience stores, clinics and medical check-up centers nationwide, and has gained a stable customer base with its professionalism and quality service.
Part two: Existing problems
● In the face of escalating consumer demand, customer companies have increased the introduction of non-pharmaceutical goods, imported goods, etc., and more diversified business categories, but category expansion and fragmentation of orders to the warehousing and logistics has brought great challenges.
● Compared with ordinary enterprises, the pharmaceutical industry has higher requirements for the limitations of the storage environment, space utilization, logistics speed, the customer is in urgent need of logistics upgrade, in order to improve the efficiency of warehousing and logistics at the same time, but also to ensure that the drugs are clean and free of contamination.
Part three: Zowell Solutions
According to the narrow aisle dense storage solution proposed by Zowell, the customer transformed the ordinary shelves into narrow aisle shelves, the aisle was narrowed to 1650mm, saving the lateral space and adding multiple rows of shelves. Even though the storage height is limited, the storage capacity of the warehouse still realized an increase of nearly 60%.
As a result, forklift operators can quickly and accurately locate the storage position of medicines, reducing the waste of time, and the daily quantity of medicines in and out of the warehouse can be significantly improved.
When the man-down three-way forklift carries out the access operation, it only needs to control the forks to rotate 180° to change the direction, then it can easily carry out the access operation on both sides of the shelves, and its maximum driving speed in the aisle can reach 5km/h, which can help customers greatly improve the overall logistics efficiency and realize the upgrade of the order delivery capacity!
With the help of Zowell, the pharmaceutical enterprise successfully increased the storage volume rate by nearly 60%, and at the same time reduced the operation time of in and out of the warehouse to ensure that the drugs can be stored in an orderly manner and delivered to the customer efficiently. The customer also gave a satisfactory feedback: “The narrow-aisle electric forklift of Zowell has brought us a lot of convenience, the large-tonnage drugs can be moved at one time, and the goods are very smooth in the process of moving, which greatly improves our logistics efficiency! This cooperation gives us confidence in our future warehouse management!”
