__Fehr’s intelligent cassette management system (KVS) controls storage cassettes, conveyor technology and transfer stations in a central platform. The ERP connection synchronizes orders, stocks and material movements in real time – for transparent, efficient and end-to-end digitized intralogistics.

Typical applications

  • Automated cassette warehouse

    The KVS controls and organizes cassettes in long goods or flat goods stores. Storage locations, warehousing, warehousing and transport movements are coordinated centrally.

  • Production material supply

    Material is supplied from the warehouse according to demand and order. The KVS ensures precise matching between warehouses, conveyor technology and processing machines.

  • Integration of conveyor technology and transfer stations

    Conveyor systems, shuttle systems or transfer points are directly integrated. Material movements run synchronized and coordinated with all adjacent processes.

  • ERP-based order processing

    Via the ERP connection, order data is automatically taken over and material movements are digitally reported back – for consistent transparency and complete inventory management.

  • Hybrid warehousing and manufacturing environments

    Manual and automated processes are integrated into a common system structure. The KVS combines different process steps to create a stable overall architecture.

  • Transparent inventory and movement data

    All cassette movements are detected digitally. As a result, up-to-date information for planning, control and optimization is generated at all times.

How your intralogistics benefit

  • Reduced system complexity

    The KVS controls all cassette movements centrally and communicates directly with the ERP system. Redundant solutions and dual data maintenance are eliminated – for a lean, clearly structured system architecture.

  • Transparent real-time processes

    All order, material and transport data are processed in real time. You have complete visibility of positions, status and utilization at all times – for informed decision-making and secure planning.

  • Intelligent material flow optimization

    The system automatically prioritizes orders, optimizes transport routes and efficiently distributes loads to available conveyor resources. Bottlenecks are reduced and lead times are sustainably shortened.

  • Improved process stability

    Redundant mechanisms and modern control technologies ensure stable operation – even in complex multi-zone systems or under high load requirements.

  • Flexible expandability

    Whether conveyor segments, shuttle systems or complete storage zones: the KVS grows with your intralogistics. New technologies integrate seamlessly without disrupting existing operations.

  • Maximum availability of material supply

    Through consistent system networking and robust architecture, your material logistics remain reliable, comprehensible and efficient – even with increasing complexity.
