PROJECT OVERVIEW

Overview

This prototype intelligent warehouse for new energy vehicle components was built for China's largest automotive group and demonstrates a very high overall level of AS/RS technical sophistication.

Main equipment includes 16 sets of 3D RGV robots, 18 sets of AGV robots, 6 sets of hoists, 5 sets of picking workstations and several conveyor lines, all coordinated through SA-WMS and AI-WCS.

CHALLENGE & SOLUTION

Challenges & Solutions

▲ Challenges
NEV components vary widely in size and packaging, requiring both bulk storage and precision picking.
China's largest auto group demands very high inbound/outbound volumes without downtime.
The facility needed both dense automated storage and efficient manual/robotic order picking.
As a prototype facility, the system had to prove technical feasibility at full production scale.
◆ SAFER Solution
Handle high-density automated storage and retrieval across the racking system.
Move parts between storage, picking stations and production lines automatically.
Support precision order picking for parts requiring manual or semi-automated handling.
Unifies RGV, AGV, hoists and conveyors into one digitally managed operation.
SYSTEM COMPOSITION

System Composition

Automated storage and retrieval across the racking system.
Transfer parts between storage, picking and production lines.
Vertical transport linking every storage level.
Coordinates 16 RGVs, 18 AGVs, 6 hoists and 5 picking stations as one system.
OUTCOMES

Outcomes

High technical sophistication — One of the most comprehensive AS/RS deployments in the group's NEV parts supply chain.

Combined storage & picking — Automated storage and precision picking operate side by side in one facility.

Proven at scale — The prototype validated the model for further rollout across the group's other plants.

Digitally unified operation — SA-WMS and AI-WCS give full visibility and control across all equipment types.
