Pesmel cooperates with Konecranes in supply of automated container high-bay storage technology

13.01.2022

Pesmel is partnering with Konecranes in supply of automated warehouse container handling technology that revolutionizes material handling in logistics hubs and container distribution centers.

The solution, developed by Pesmel, will handle containers fully automatically in a high-bay storage, stacked up to 14 high. It reduces the space needed for containers by up to 80%. The storage has built-in docking operations providing access to each container in less than 5 minutes. In addition, the solution eliminates truck yard congestions, thus, improving safety and ensuring fastest truck turnaround times which, in turn, will significantly reduce trucking costs and pollution in the area.

Tero Vallas, Business Development Manager, Konecranes Port Solutions, said: “Many logistics operations and distribution centers are faced with handling a large number of incoming and outgoing containers, with great operational complexity and an increasing scarcity of land. Now, from Konecranes and Pesmel, warehouse container handling solutions are available that will impose order on the container chaos while eliminating the complexity, improving throughput, and also greatly reducing the space needed for containers in logistics hubs and distribution centers.”

Container shipping is expected to grow in the future, both in volume and speed. The better containers are handled at logistics hubs and distribution centers, the better their customers will be served, in ways that give decisive competitive advantage. Konecranes and Pesmel are here to give that advantage.

“Partnering with Konecranes is a great opportunity for Pesmel to bring our high-bay warehouse technology into a ­­­new business area,” said Tony Leikas, CEO, Pesmel.
