Initial situation
Tailored components made of steel or aluminum make cars lighter. More than 30 years ago, Tailored Blanks laid the foundation for many other innovative tailored products such as laser-welded blanks, steel strips and tubes with the invention of the first "tailored blank".
The ultimate goal for production logistics is the continuous optimization of processes from the warehouse to the processing machines in order to be able to handle every product innovation.
Solution
Unitechnik manages and controls two high-bay warehouses in the production area.
The presses and the laser welding machines are each connected by means of conveyor technology.
The central warehouse management system UniWare-LVS plans and tracks all transports of the two warehouses under one roof.
