Dynamic Growth Path

The majority of companies shopping for warehouse automation systems want the benefit of starting simple, then adding complexity later following proven performance and budgetary allowances. The most common problems they run into revolve around the limitations of their introductory system to adapt to their expanding requirements.

The Versatile Warehouse™ has been developed to eliminate these concerns of scalability. For example, you may elect to start with a simple automated carousel and/or pick-to-light application. Phase-in automated conveyor control after six months. Next, integrate VWare™ packing and/or consolidation stations. As your last phase, you decide to fully automate shipping sortation using our modular architecture.

Some of the primary benefits of choosing the Versatile Warehouse™ for your growth path include:
  • Simple integration of individual carousel or pick-to-light applications
  • Seamless expansion of storage zones and/or workstations
  • Integrate warehouse automation devices as you need them
  • Maintain a single interface to your WMS or ERP system
  • Add more advanced features through software configuration
  • Work with a single proven team throughout your expansion
  • Eliminate expensive application retrofits and retraining
  • Reduce your overall budget by orders of magnitude

Standalone to Enterprise

Our Versatile Warehouse™ further demonstrates its scalability through providing total solutions for a wide variety system architectures. Whether you are shopping for a simple PC configuration to execute light-duty order fulfillment, or investigating an enterprise level solution that integrates large-scale warehouse automation with order management, fulfillment and inventory control, the Versatile Warehouse™ delivers.

In the expanding market of warehouse management systems, it can be very difficult to find the product that matches your throughput requirements. Most low cost solutions are very limited in the number of transactions they can process during a production cycle. On the other hand, most systems that can deliver high-end performance are overly complex, and are extremely expensive to implement. The Versatile Warehouse™ bridges the gap! Its scalability allows it to perform across a spectrum of configurations, often for a fraction of the cost of traditional systems.
