PROJECT BACKGROUND

Project background
 
       
As a leading global bathroom fixture brand, Kohler's success is inseparable from its efficient production and supply chain management. Its semi-finished product warehouse in Nanchang is crucial for ensuring the stable operation of its faucet and showerhead production lines. However, this warehouse has long faced traditional warehousing pain points such as low storage density, inefficient manual picking, and fragmented management, which contrasts sharply with its pursuit of excellence. This project aims to fundamentally solve these operational challenges and improve the overall efficiency of the supply chain by introducing intelligent warehousing solutions.

Project Pain Points

SKU Surge: Numerous product categories and sizes make inventory management extremely complex.

Space Bottleneck: Limited warehouse space, low storage density, and poor space efficiency.

Labor Dependence: Low operational efficiency, high labor costs, and frequent errors.

Limited Scalability: The system lacks flexibility and struggles to cope with demand fluctuations and future growth.

Solution

The core of this solution is the deployment of a hybrid robot solution consisting of 4 ACRs and 10 AMRs.

On the storage side, ACR robots fully utilize the 7.8-meter vertical space and double-deep racking, increasing storage capacity to over 28,000 locations, achieving unprecedented high density.

On the picking side, AMR robots form an efficient ground handling network, quickly and flexibly delivering cartons to outbound workstations, consistently contributing over 110 cartons/hour in outbound efficiency.

Customer Value

Storage Capacity: 3.7x increase, achieving ultra-high-density storage.

Throughput Efficiency: 2x increase, consistently reaching 110+ cartons/hour.

Labor Costs: Revolutionary 80% savings, drastically reducing workload.

Operational Visibility: Integration with SAP, real-time inventory data control.

Future Expansion: Modular design, easily adapting to business growth.
