Logistics systems

Jungheinrich maintained the successful course the Logistics Systems Division has been charting for years. This involves the company acting as general contractor. The focus lies on tailor-made solutions, be it manual storage systems with warehouse management systems and radio data transmission, fully automated warehousing systems with shelving and material handling equipment or combinations of the two. Jungheinrich provides its customers with end-to-end assistance, from the first consulting session, budgeting and project planning to system integration and maintenance once the systems are up and running. Amongst the project highlights in 2008 were the establishment of a large-scale Jungheinrich DIS (Drive-in System) compact warehousing system for Kühne + Nagel (AG & Co.) KG, a complete logistics system at Deutsche Solar AG, and a sophisticated warehousing and order-picking system for KMS-Group Management GmbH.

Furthermore, Jungheinrich expanded its product range in this business by adding an RFID-based solution. Engineered in-house, the system enables the rapid recording and tracking of palettes transported several deep, as is the case in the beverage industry, for example.
