A warehouse management system is a comprehensive inter-logistics solution

A warehouse management system is an equipment for material handling. The latter is defined as short-distance movements within the confines of a facility or between a building and a transportation vehicle. The solution is designed by a wide range of manual, semi-automated, and automated machinery. The protection, storage, and control of materials throughout manufacturing, storage, distribution, consumption, and disposal - are also considered during the design.

At Nieros, we deliver fully comprehensive, integrated and customisable automated material handling systems to help you manage internal production processes as economically as possible. We cover inter-logistics and material handling processes, including transport, loading, food cutting, sorting, order picking, labelling and storage. Nieros products guarantee a smooth and optimised material flow, complying with the ISO, HACCP, IFS and other standards for delicate goods manipulation.

Our warehouse industrial storage systems consist of several automated logistic systems. With our solutions, space is utilised to the maximum. They feature an effective traceability system, meaning items are easily and quickly found all over the warehouse. We simplified inventory control and ensured fast and accurate order picking. Operating costs of automated logistics systems are low, and their configuration is flexible.

Easy maintenance and long life span of automated logistics systems

Automated logistics systems represent an innovative solution for lifting, tipping, tilting, and transporting cargo of various sizes and weights. They apply to a wide range of production processes, creating time and place utility through the handling, storage, and goods control. All of our products are made from stainless steel and guarantee long lifespan as well as great damage resistance. Due to the firm construction, maintenance and cleaning of the machines are extremely easy.

There are three types of automated material handling systems available:
Lift systems are convenient and ergonomic solutions designed to lift different loads to a height of up to 6 metres. They ensure attentive handling, tilting, dosing, stacking and retrieving of the goods.
Tipping and tilting equipment enables easy, quick and safe material handling, such as dosing, emptying, cleaning and weighing, to achieve superior performance and impeccable hygiene.
Transportation equipment is used to lift cargo to the desired working height.

A warehouse management system can be tailor-made and merged with other Nieros products.

Warehouse management solutions were designed to be modular. That means they can merge with other products in our offer, like hygiene systems. We produce sanitation equipment for the meat processing industry, where high hygiene standards are essential. The hygiene stations and systems we design maintain a clean and sterile work environment.

Meat processing equipment is also available in our company, including desks and worktables, bins, containers and tanks, trolleys, accessories and utensils. We also manufacture railings, wall and corner impact protection, cooling tanks, ham presses, and drains. Just like automated material handling systems, they are all designed to meet your production specifics.

How do you plan a warehouse management system?

A warehouse management system requires thoughtful consideration. Correctly designed storage will ensure the goods are stored logically, managed effectively and can be accessed swiftly. When planning a system, it is crucial to understand storage needs. The cargo weight, size and handling requirements dictate the storage method. The layout must be efficient, as it will determine the retrieval of the items. Poorly planned spaces lead to excessive movement, wasted space and increased labour costs. The layout should be divided into clearly defined zones.

After all that comes choosing the storage system. These vary in accessibility, cost-effectiveness, and space efficiency. An automated material handling system is best for handling large volumes of inventory because it maximises space utilisation and helps goods effectively. A correct layout is a strategic investment that must comply with necessary safety standards. A well-planned warehouse prioritises safety and prevents structural failures and hazardous situations.

Why is an automated material handling system so vital for your facility?

A warehouse management system must comply with laws and regulations, including sustainability. With global warming, consumers are more alert about where they buy products and how sustainable the company is. Many believe that sustainability (with all the rules and directives) is terrible for business, but sustainable practices reduce environmental impact, guarantee long-term efficiency, and significantly lower costs.

Automated logistics systems minimise transportation distances, streamline operations and reduce energy consumption. They are made of high-quality, durable and recyclable materials. Advancements in technology drive sustainable warehousing by predicting maintenance needs, improving inventory management, and reducing dependency on fuel-powered equipment. They also prevent human errors, lowering waste associated with misplaced or lost products. Such warehousing requires an initial investment but offers a quick return because the financial benefits outweigh the costs.
