Part of the W\u00fcrth Group, the company operates 61 subsidiaries across Germany and generated a revenue of 985 million euros in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Growth as a driver of automation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The company&#8217;s strong growth and continuous further development in the areas of warehouse logistics, innovation and digitalization led FEGA &amp; Schmitt to invest in a highly-automated shuttle system, facilitating a demand-based expansion of its high service level for its suppliers and partners in skilled trades, specialist retail and industry.<br><br>This involved a complete reconfiguration of the material flow \u2013 from goods receiving to storage, picking and packing, all the way to dispatch. The result is an efficiency boost thanks to lean processes, short lead times and an optimized maintenance concept.<br>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Third project with the W\u00fcrth Group<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The core element of the solution is a 6-aisle shuttle warehouse with 160,000 storage locations. A network of energy-efficient KingDrive conveyors interconnects the individual areas of the fulfillment center. Also part of the project: packing workstations and a shipping sorter, as well as the Warehouse Control System (WCS) to control and check all processes.<br><br>&#8220;The distribution center for FEGA &amp; Schmitt marks our third collaboration with a W\u00fcrth Group company,&#8221; points out&nbsp;<strong>Martin Waldenberger<\/strong>, CSO of the Customer Unit Central Europe at TGW Logistics. \u201cOur experts allowed for future expansion steps in the design of the installation, affording our customer maximum flexibility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tgw-group.com\/\">tgw-group.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TGW Logistics recently handed over a highly-automated intralogistics system to FEGA &amp; Schmitt Elektrogro\u00dfhandel GmbH.
