Multi-level integration of intralogistics systems
Multi-Level Integration of Intralogistics Systems in Germany
- Location: Germany
- Project Type: Complex Intralogistics System Integration
- Scope: Mechanical Assembly & Electrical Installation
EPCIDO supported the implementation of a new intralogistics system in Germany through expert mechanical assembly and electrical installation services. The system was designed by EPCIDO’s client, while EPCIDO contributed its installation know-how, site execution experience, and technical expertise to ensure a successful implementation. Although EPCIDO has completed more than 1,000 intralogistics projects, this installation required unique engineering solutions due to infrastructure limitations and a very tight working environment.
The project was developed to address limited warehouse capacity in an existing facility that had reached its operational limits. A second warehouse building was constructed across the street, and the two facilities were connected by a newly built bridge structure above the road. EPCIDO’s role was to support the client-designed solution by installing and implementing the conveyor network that physically and technologically integrated both buildings.
Execution & Technical Scope:
- Technological System Integration: Integration of an advanced automated storage system supported by large stacker cranes with a newly established, independent AutoStore system located nearby.
- Multi-Level Architecture: Multi-floor conveyor installation connecting parcel pick-up points and operator stations across different levels, requiring precise synchronization of vertical and horizontal transport.
- Heavy Components Handling: Positioning and securing pre-assembled heavy roller modules weighing up to 525 kg each with millimetre-level precision through narrow technical routes in confined working spaces.
- Infrastructure Connection: Seamless linking of the existing warehouse with the new facility, including compensation of structural differences within the connecting bridge area.
- Complete Installation Scope: Structured site management and supervision, heavy mechanical leveling and alignment, and complex multi-level cable routing, sensor connections, and control network integration.
“Delivering this specialized, multi-level project was enabled by structured installation methodology, technical coordination, and proven experience in complex intralogistics environments. By overcoming spatial challenges and managing tight execution margins, we successfully integrated both facilities into a unified, high-performing operational network.”
