    Honeycomb warehouse for flat goods - flexible material handling and fast picking for steel, aluminum, stainless steel and glass.

    The Fehr Honeycomb warehouse for flat goods is based on the efficient interchangeable cassette principle and meets the highest requirements for flexibility and performance. A wide variety of flat products – of sheets, plates and coils in variable dimensions – can be stored safely, quickly and in a space-efficient manner. Thanks to minimal starting masses and intelligent cassette structure, the warehouse area is optimally used, as a result of which a high warehouse density is achieved. Fast shelf control units ensure short access times and high throughput performance. Continuous automation and the possibility of direct connection of processing machines ensure a continuously efficient material flow. Networking with ERP and WMS systems creates full transparency, optimized goods management and consistently high performance – even with high throughput or heterogeneous stocks.

    The Fehr Honeycomb system is particularly suitable for companies in the steel, stainless steel and aluminum trade, as well as in glass processing and industrial production, which have to move large quantities of flat goods quickly, reliably and space-saving.

    • High throughput:
      Short access times and fast order picking ensure high performance even with high order volumes. The purely mechanical dual-gripper principle guarantees maximum speed and reliability.
    • Flexible material and container support:
      One system for all types of materials: long items, flat items, pallets, or custom customer containers. The universal honeycomb storage system allows for easy adaptation to a wide variety of requirements—without the need for retooling.
    • Maximum storage density:
      Smart cassette concept and modular combinable elements make optimum use of surface area and room height. This results in maximum storage capacities in a minimum of space and at the same time in ergonomic material handling.
    • High system availability and durability:
      Robust mechanics, precise control and long-lasting components ensure reliable operation. Continuous automation minimizes downtime and ensures continuous material flows.
    • Seamless integration:
      Direct connection to machine tools, ERP and WMS systems enables digital control of all material movements. Material flows are transparently monitored and efficiently integrated into existing processes.
    • Flexible and scalable:
      Modular design adapts to compact locations as well as high-performance environments. Extensions or adaptations are possible at any time to meet future requirements.
