Multi products storage using randomnessIJRTEMJOURNAL
This document discusses a study of implementing a randomized storage system in a multi-product warehouse belonging to an automotive supplier. The traditional ABC storage system was causing issues like empty locations, lost materials, and long response times to demand variability. The researchers implemented a randomized storage tool that assigns materials to zones based on similar characteristics rather than specific locations. This increased warehouse utilization from 60% to 80-90% and reduced idle time for production areas from 9,000 to 1,000 hours per week. The randomized system provides more flexibility to handle fluctuations while maintaining accurate material records. Training operators and continuous improvement were important to successfully adopting the new approach.
The following Project shows the benefits of a research established into a multi-products
warehouse belongs to an automotive industry supplier. The main goal was applied a tool recognizing the rules
for distribution and material storage. Once the research was completed, the benefits were, the idle times
reduction per hours/week by the two initial processes. The politics for storage assignment and location, propose
a system to improve the space into this areain order to avoid material management and flow issues. It is
important to mention, the system proposed could be applied into warehouses with storage size and space
restricted by sorting area, also different material types, production settings and physical specifications for
which set warehouses with traditional management of distribution without slack, involves lack of materials,
pieces without records, incorrect location assigned, stock error.

1. WHITE PAPER
Picking the Best Robotic Tooling for
Palletizing
By asking the right questions, companies can design robotic
systems that maximize end-of-line efficiency and ROI
By Earl Wohlrab
Today’s manufacturers have started looking downstream more and more for automation
opportunities. And when they do, more are choosing robotic systems. According to
PMMI’s 2008 Packaging Machinery Shipments & Outlook Study, shipments of robotic
palletizers rose by more than 12.5 percent in 2007.
Designing a robotic palletizing cell has become more complicated as companies invest
more in environmentally friendly and sustainable packaging. To reduce dunnage,
standard corrugated cardboard cartons are being replaced with thinner-walled
pressboard, shrink-wrapped bundles of product on corrugated pads, and even loose
product in trays. Add increased demand from club stores and marketing changes to the
mix, and manufacturers need to account for an even wider range of packaging sizes,
shapes and materials.
Choosing the correct end-of-arm tooling helps ensure that a new robotic palletizing
or depalletizing system can effectively handle a company’s full range of packaging
types. End-of-arm tooling is a highly project-specific component that represents a
large percentage of the overall cost of the system. Tooling types for palletizing include
vacuum, side clamp, fork style and layer handling (see “Tooling Overview” section
on page 2 for details on each tooling type). Asking the following questions and
understanding the specifications of each type is essential to designing a system that will
maximize performance, speed, uptime and return on investment.
Five Questions to Ask Before Specifying Robotic Tooling
1. What kinds of product(s) are you handling?
The first step in choosing robotic tooling is analyzing the full range of products and
packaging types running on your line. Take some time to determine how each item
should be handled. For example, can the packaging support its own weight during
transfer? Or, will it need to be supported from underneath?
Here are some important factors to consider:
• Size, shape and weight
Today’s manufactures need to account for
a wide range of packaging sizes, shapes • Stability and construction
and materials when designing robotics
palletizing systems.
• Sealing, wrapping and/or taping
• Secondary packaging
2. What rates do you require on your packaging line?
The throughput capabilities of your robotic system can vary greatly depending on which
tool you use and the product you are palletizing. A good starting point is to determine an
acceptable range of line speeds (cases per minute), which can help you better evaluate your
tooling options.

3. How important are the aesthetics of your packaging?
Certain tooling types enable more pallet configurations than others. This flexibility
may be needed to orient graphics for full-pallet displays and to meet the demands
of club stores. Some tools can cause dimpling in shrink wrap or marking on
packaging, which may be unacceptable for items ending up on display.
4. Will your robot be handling slip/tier sheets or pallets?
Don’t forget to take into account tooling for robots that handle tier sheets or
pallets. Also keep in mind that peripheral tooling may be required, and that

system.
5. Will your system be able to adapt to future packaging changes?
Whenever possible, design flexibility into your system to handle changes in your
current product line and the addition of new packaging types in the future.
Partner with an experienced palletizing integrator to help you make informed
choices and specify the equipment that is best suited for your application.
Tooling Overview
Vacuum
Vacuum tooling is the most popular — yet most misapplied — tooling type. It
uses pneumatically actuated cups or foam to lift products, depending on the
availability of the surface. As only the top surface of the case comes in contact
with the tooling, the vacuum option enables a large range of pallet patterns
and is the most prevalent type used for depalletizing. Vacuum tooling is ideal for
sturdy, traditional packaging, such as sealed corrugate cases that can bear the
total weight of the product during transfer. This method is not recommended for
Ideal for traditional packaging such as
sealed corrugate cases, vacuum tooling many types of packaging, including tall cases with a low center of gravity. As the

cups (shown here) to lift products robot accelerates, inertia can cause the cases to “peel away” from the vacuum
carrying surface. If not planned for during the design phase, this issue can cause a
lot of trouble when it is time to run production.
Fork style
Fork style tooling uses a row of forks that comb through conveyor rollers to lift
product from the bottom. Fork style tooling is useful for handling irregularly
shaped cases and bags, cases with lids, fan-fold cartons and any packaging that
cannot support its own product weight. On the downside, fork style requires
additional space for pattern formation. A large amount of mechanical motion
makes this the slowest method, and it is not suitable for depalletizing.

Side clamp
Side clamp tooling is often used for packages that cannot be handled with a vacuum tool.
A robotic palletizer equipped with side clamp tooling permits shrink-wrapped product
in trays or on pads, for example, to be manipulated efficiently. It also enables higher
robotic arm speeds than vacuum tooling, and provides greater control and confidence in
holding onto and transferring product. Side clamp tooling works well with thinner-walled
sustainable packaging, and can offer flexibility for packaging lines that run a variety of
Side clamp tooling works well with products. For example, a small beverage line is able to clamp a sixpack differently than a
thinner-walled sustainable packaging, and three-pound box of syrup. However, this type may not be suitable for palletizing fragile

bowling ball in a plastic bag).
Layer handling
Some operations may require complete layer handling for palletizing, which is expensive
due to the ancillary material handling equipment needed to form each layer. This
application is ideal for cases without sealed tops
Hybrid Tooling
Layer handling is ideal for cases without Sometimes, a combination of two separate robotic tooling types is used to help constrain
sealed tops. motion along both the x and y axes during motion, or peripheral tooling is added to
handle pallets or tier sheets.
Vacuum-assisted clamping or layer handling
When clamps cannot transfer force to the center of the layer due to overpopulation
of product or varying patterns, vacuum tooling can be used to hold the layer in place
vertically. Vacuum-assisted layer handling is ideal for patterns that include voids for
cooling purposes in pasteurization or heat-curing operations.
Vacuum-assisted fork style
Forks support the packages from underneath, while vacuum tooling along the back row of
the cases keeps them in place.
Clamping-assisted vacuum
Used for tall and light packages, the vacuum tool is used to lift and move the product,
while the clamps keep it from moving horizontally and peeling away from the vacuum.

here provides gentle clamping of cases,

way during the palletizing operation.
