Americold Upgrades Automation System to Handle, Separate Double-Stacked Pallets
Americold, an Atlanta-based leader in temperature-controlled warehousing for the food and beverage industry, worked with viastore systems, Inc., a material handling automation systems and software company based in Grand Rapids, Mich., to modify an existing system implemented at its Indianapolis facility.
Americold is constantly reviewing solutions that will enable greater efficiencies and advancement to meet customer demands, and automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) play an increasing role in improving such capabilities. That’s why Americold identified the need to enhance its current AS/RS to improve case and pallet picking rates.
